The BCS standings were released on Sunday night and, for the third week in a row, the LSU Tigers remained in the top spot while the Alabama Crimson Tide came in second once again. The top two teams in the SEC also came in as the top two teams as well in the Week 10 Harris Poll after doing the same in the Week 10 AP Poll and the Week 10 USA Today coaches poll.
BCS Standings Week 10: Stanford Hurdles Boise State Behind LSU, Alabama, OK State
The LSU Tigers topped the BCS rankings for a third straight week, much to nobody’s surprise. With just six unbeatens left and the Tigers playing the second-ranked Alabama Crimson Tide next week, these standings will change quite a bit next week.

The previously unbeaten Clemson and Kansas State lost this week, too, falling out of the top ten while leaving just six undefeated teams left in college football heading into November -- with the top five all undefeated. Houston is the only unbeaten team not yet in the hunt for the national championship.
