The LSU football team became the first unanimous No. 1 team in the Associated Press Top 25 Poll since 2008 after a 42-9 win against Western Kentucky.
The Tigers are the first team to receive all 60 first-place votes since Texas did so on Oct. 26, 2008.
LSU has been the nation’s No. 1 team since Sept. 25. Oklahoma State was second in this week’s AP poll for the second consecutive week, followed by Alabama at No. 3, Oregon at No. 4 and Oklahoma at No. 5.
The Tigers also stayed in first place in the BCS Standings, followed by Oklahoma State at No. 2 and Alabama at No. 3.
Oregon jumped from No. 7 to No 4 in the BCS Standings after a 53-30 win against then-No. 4 Stanford, which fell to No. 9.
Oklahoma had a bye week, but jumped ahead one spot to number four after Boise State dropped to No. 10 with a, 36-35, loss to TCU.
