Buckeyes move into No. 3 spot


Top 25 poll

The Associated Press

Southern California and Oregon had the biggest drops in The Associated Press college football poll after losing their Pac-10 openers. The Trojans fell from third to 10th following a 34-31, triple-overtime loss at California. The Ducks dropped nine spots to 19th after a 55-16 home loss to Washington State.

Oklahoma and Miami remained in the top two spots for the fourth straight week in the poll released Sunday.

The Sooners, who have been No. 1 all season, received 57 of the 65 first-place votes and 1,615 points in balloting by the panel of sports writers and broadcasters. The Hurricanes got three firsts and 1,554 points.

Ohio State moved up a spot to No. 3 after USC's loss and received the remaining five first-place votes. The third-ranked team in the country also lost the previous two weeks.
