BCS Rankings: Will Close Calls For Oregon, Auburn, TCU Shake Up Standings?

A trio of undefeated teams on top of the BCS rankings looked poised to cruise through this weekend and maintain their places in the standings. But after a Saturday more about survival than style, will Oregon, Auburn, and TCU stay in that order in next week’s BCS standings?

Oregon had the closest call of the three teams. Only a missed field goal saved the Ducks from an upset at Cal, and the 15-13 win that voters will see won’t do Oregon any favors in the USA Today and AP polls tomorrow.

Yet again, Oregon should be atop the BCS rankings.

The Ducks held the top spot in the Week 10 standings, and hold a commanding lead in both of the major college football polls this week. They’re 9-0 on the year, have already beaten the second-highest ranked Pac-10 team, and have a clear path to a BCS National Championship Game berth.
