NCAA Top 25 - Week 6

Upset of the Week:  There weren't many upsets affecting Top 25 teams this week.  Oklahoma State knocked off A&M, but nationally that wasn't a surprise.  The only real candidate was Arkansas' defeat of Auburn.  Ryan Mallet has been steadily improving each week, which makes Arkansas dangerous.  Auburn was the first to see that, but I don't think they'll be the last SEC team to see the power of the Razorbacks.

This week's ratings [Last week's position]
1.  Alabama Crimson Tide (6-0) [1] : Definitely the best defense in the conference!
2.  Florida Gators (5-0) [2]: Tebow is back, but the offense isn't as potent.  They're relying too heavily on their defense
3.  Texas Longhorns (5-0) [3]: Nice come from behind victory this week
4.  Boise State Broncos (5-0) [4]
5.  Kansas Jayhawks (5-0) [6]
6.  Iowa Hawkeyes (6-0) [8]: A close game against Michigan, but they're the only unbeaten in the Big Ten now
7.  Cincinnati Bearcats (5-0) [9]
8.  Ohio State Buckeyes (5-1) [12]: The Buckeyes continue to improve since their close loss to USC
9.  USC Trojans (4-1) [11]
10. Oregon Ducks (5-1) [13]: Another team that has wonderfully improved after an early season embarrassment
11. Nebraska Cornhuskers (4-1) [15]: What a dominant performance on Thursday night!  This team is proving to be a force in the Big XII
12. LSU Tigers (5-1) [7]:  They slowed down the Gators offense, but their offense dried up
13. Penn State Nittany Lions (5-1) [14]
14. Virginia Tech Hokies (5-1) [17]
