Update: The Week 14 BCS standings are now out right here.

As the college football season starts to come to a close, it seems that each week has supplied us with big upsets. Week 13 was no stranger, with national title contenders falling, and we have a new-look poll with just a few weeks to go in the regular season.

The first Week 13 poll to be released is the AP, which does not count toward the BCS:

Baylor and Oregon both suffered blowout losses at the hands of Oklahoma State and Arizona, respectively, and both fall heavily from their previous top five spots. Meanwhile, Stanford moves up after its win over Cal, as does Clemson after blowing out The Citadel. Oklahoma State is the big mover, but Missouri and Auburn head up inside the top 10 ahead of clashes with Alabama (assuming Missouri can beat Texas A&M next week).

Arizona State sees its stock rise after a win over UCLA, while the Bruins fall in the polls after their third loss. Minnesota falls out after a brief stint in the Coaches’ Poll following their loss to Wisconsin.

Texas A&M drops heavily after its blowout loss to LSU -- the Aggies’ third loss in three tries against a ranked opponent this season -- while the Tigers rise following the big win.
