Colorado picked up its biggest win under Deion Sanders, defeating Houston 42-32, a top-15 opponent. While the win was impressive, the Buffaloes' 4-6 record is far from earning a spot in the latest US LBM Coaches Poll. The Big 12, however, is well represented, with five teams ranked in the top 25.
Utah continues to look like one of the best teams in the country, heading to Tucson to beat a very talented Arizona team. The Utes hold steady at No. 2 with no movement across most of the top 10. Arizona, despite the loss, moves up one spot to No. 20.
Texas Tech drops one spot to No. 11 despite an impressive win at Oklahoma State. BYU is right behind the Red Raiders, holding its place at No. 12.
Colorado's upset of Houston pushed the Cougars down five
spots to No. 21. Houston is the final ranked Big 12 team this week. Oklahoma State is the only team in the receiving votes section with five.
