North
1. Stanford (#2 last week) - A big win over Notre Dame was enough to get the Cardinal back past the Ducks despite their loss to them a few weeks ago. The Cardinal now have the Rose Bowl and a longshot Playoff run in their sights.
2. Oregon (#1 last week) - A big national win for Stanford and a bad second half in the Civil War knocked the Ducks out of the top spot in the North.
3. Washington State (#3 last week) - The Cougars nearly lost their third spot after getting demolished in the Apple Cup, but their eight wins were good enough to give them the edge.
