Oklahoma and Miami strengthened their grips on the top two spots in The Associated Press college football poll following a weekend that featured losses by 10 ranked teams.

The Sooners, No. 1 since the preseason, received 61 of the 64 first-place votes Sunday after a 65-13 win over rival Texas. The Hurricanes got the other three top votes after beating Florida State 22-14.

Oklahoma received 1,597 points in balloting by the panel of sports writers and broadcasters and the Hurricanes had 1,534.

Virginia Tech, the only other unbeaten team from a major conference, was third, followed by Georgia and Southern California.

The rest of the Top 10 was Washington State, Florida State, Ohio State, Iowa and LSU.

Ohio State fell from No. 3 after its 19-game winning streak was snapped by Wisconsin. The Badgers made the biggest jump, moving nine spots to 14th. LSU fell from sixth after losing 19-7 to Florida.

The only other two unbeaten teams in Division I-A were No. 12 Northern Illinois and No. 16 TCU.

The USA Today/ESPN coaches poll had the same top three teams as the AP.

Nearly half - 10 of 22 - of the ranked teams that played this weekend lost, causing lots of movement in the poll.

Two teams that were in the Top 10 last month dropped out of the poll entirely. Kansas State, which peaked at sixth, fell out after its third loss, 38-34 to Oklahoma State. Pittsburgh, which was as high as ninth, dropped after losing 20-14 to Notre Dame for its second loss.

Virginia also dropped out following a 30-27 overtime loss to Clemson.

Auburn, after beating Arkansas 10-3 for its second straight win over a Top 10 team, moved back into the poll. The Tigers, sixth in the preseason, dropped out after losing their first two games. The Razorbacks went from seventh to 11th.

Oklahoma State and Missouri also moved into the Top 25, with the Cowboys tied for 22nd with Oregon State, and the Tigers 24th.

Other teams that had notable falls were Nebraska from No. 10 to 18 after a 41-24 loss to Missouri, Texas from 11th to 20th and Tennessee from No. 13 to 21 after a 41-14 loss to Georgia.

Following Arkansas were Northern Illinois, Purdue, Wisconsin, Michigan State, TCU, Michigan, Nebraska, Auburn and Texas.

Tennessee, Oklahoma State, Oregon State, Missouri and Minnesota rounded out the poll.

The Big Ten leads all conferences with seven teams in the poll, followed by five apiece from the SEC and Big 12. The Pac-10 had three, the Big East two and Florida State was the only ranked ACC team.
