Rankings Update: Week 4

After an eventful Saturday, the latest shakeup in the rankings has the California Golden Bears as the top ranked team in the Pac-10. The Bears used their first road win in five tries to catapult themselves to #6 while USC's surprising loss to the vastly improved Huskies has sent them tumbling to #12.

The Huskies have also gained attention with their turnaround win, entering the Top 25 rankings at #24 for the first time since September 28, 2003. Crazy when you considerthat this was the nearly identical team that went 0-12 last year.


Oregon State lost out on its chance to enter the rankings with a 28-18 loss to Cincinatti (who is easily looking like the best team in the Big East at this point).

Arizona also had a tough weekend dropping a game to Iowa and receiving news that their star tight end Rob Gronkowski is out for the season.

Oregon and UCLA are also on the verge of entering the polls after UCLA's win over Kansas State marked their 3-0 non-conference start, and Oregon ended Utah's 18 game winning streak in Eugene.

Oh and swallow this: Stanford and Washington are tied for first in the Pac-10 while USC and WSU are tied for last.

Yes chew on that.
