The new polls are out for the week and even with the week off, the Oklahoma Sooners remain No. 1.
The top five teams in both polls after the Sooners are the Alabama Crimson Tide, LSU Tigers, Boise State Broncos and Florida State Seminoles. The only difference in the top five from last week in the Coaches Poll is the fact the Boise State and Florida State flipped spots.
This week’s polls have the West Virginia Mountaineers and South Florida Bulls representing the Big East. The Mountaineers are No. 18 in the AP Poll and 20 in the Coaches Poll while the Bulls are No. 20 in the AP Poll and they jumped into the Coaches Poll at No. 22.
There are no Big East teams this week in the others receiving votes category in either poll.
