2009 Week 10 Top 25

Oregon makes the biggest leap this week, jumping up to #6 with a decisive win over USC. Now the Ducks are the favorite to win the Pac-10, and probably need just a couple of upsets to get to the national title game. Pitt also makes a sizable jump despite having an off week. This is due to a combination of teams in front of them losing and my decision that I had been underrating them. I'm really looking forward to the Cincinnati-Pitt game the last week of the season.

Two big games matching up ranked teams this weekend. LSU travels to Alabama in the biggest SEC West game of the year. The winner will have a clear path to the SEC Championship game. Ohio State plays at Penn State this weekend. The Big Ten is still Iowa's to lose, but the winner of this game would be in position to get an at-large bid to a BCS bowl game. Of course, if Ohio State wins out, they will also win the conference.
