UCLA gets nine votes, Stanford makes jump

The latest AP top-25 poll was released today, and UCLA received nine votes after defeating Texas 34-12, while the Longhorns fell from No. 7 to No. 21, the biggest drop of the week.
Stanford, meanwhile, moved into the top-10 with a resounding win over Notre Dame, 37-14.

Kansas State and Houston each received votes, too, and UCLA’s opponents this season are a combined 12-0 against other opponents, 2-2 against the Bruins.

If UCLA handles business against Washington State as expected, and wins at Cal, they have a chance for a top-25 ranking.
