The Associated Press Top 25 poll saw little change this week with only a couple of upsets or strong performances shaking up the rankings slightly.

The Stanford Cardinal fell out of the top 10, from No. 8 to No. 18, after being upset on Thursday night by the Washington Huskies who moved into the rankings at No. 23.

Aside from Stanford, no one moved out of the top 10, with only a couple of minor changes to the nation's top 10 teams. The Florida State Seminoles jumped over the LSU Tigers to take the No. 3 spot behind the Alabama Crimson Tide and Oregon Ducks who held on to the top two spots.

The Oregon State Beavers made a four-spot jump, moving up to No. 14 after beating the Arizona Wildcats late on Saturday night.

Three teams moved into this week's rankings: Washington, No. 24 Northwestern Wildcats and No. 25 UCLA Bruins. The three teams that lost their spots in the AP rankings were the Michigan State Spartans, the Boise State Broncos and the Baylor Bears.
