College Football Rankings 2012: Oregon Takes Advantage Of USC Loss

The Oregon Ducks benefited from the biggest upset of the early football season in moving from No. 4 to No. 3 in the newly released USA Today Coaches Poll. With the USC Trojans failing to defeat the Stanford Cardinal for the fourth consecutive year, the Ducks were able to move up in the rankings while their fellow Pac-12 power dropped to No. 12.

The Ducks trail behind the No. 1 Alabama Crimson Tide and No. 2 LSU Tigers. The Crimson Tide snagged 54 of the 59 possible first place votes while LSU got the other five.

Oregon is the highest ranked Pac-12 team followed by Stanford (No. 11), USC (No. 12), UCLA (No. 19) and Arizona (No. 21).

The Oregon St. Beavers are still on the outside looking in, trailing behind seven teams before even getting a chance to sniff the No. 25 spot currently held by the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

College Football Rankings 2012: Oregon Ducks Move Up A Spot, Oregon State Last Team Out

The Oregon Ducks moved up a spot to No. 3 in the latest Associated Press College Football Poll, benefiting from the upset of fellow Pac-12 power USC at the hands of the Stanford Cardinal.

The Ducks now sit behind the two SEC teams that played for the national championship last season in No. 1 Alabama and No. 2 LSU. Alabama grabbed 58 out of a possible 60 first place votes while LSU grabbed the final two.

Oregon will have to just stay the course and hope they can infiltrate the stranglehold the SEC has on the top spots in the poll. Staying undefeated is the one thing the Ducks can control and they've done their part so far in starting 3-0. The Trojans dropped from No. 2 to No. 13 while Stanford made the biggest jump from No. 21 to No. 9.

The Oregon St. Beavers are next in line to join the top 25 party as the Beavers were the first team out. The Beavers would join Oregon, Stanford, USC, the UCLA Bruins and Arizona Wildcats as ranked Pac-12 teams.

College Football Blogpoll, Week 3: Oregon Sticks At No. 4

The Oregon Ducks aren't moving in the latest college football BlogPoll results. You can expect that unless someone above them loses or they fall themselves, the No. 4 position is where Oregon is going to stay for awhile.

Oregon remains in fourth after a routine victory over Fresno State. The Ducks trail the USC Trojans by a spot; USC fell from second to third after beating Syracuse this past week, as LSU's undressing of Washington was impressive enough to bump them up the rankings.

Five Pac-12 teams are in this week's BlogPoll. Stanford stays in the top 25 for the third straight week. UCLA and Arizona make the leap in after impressive upsets of Nebraska and Oklahoma State. Both Oregon State and Arizona State aren't too far away from getting into the list, either.
