Kansas State remains No. 2 in the latest BCS standings. 

The Oregon Ducks moved up a spot and passed Notre Dame, moving into third place behind Alabama and Kansas State.

Oregon is coming off its biggest victory of the season, winning 62-51 at USC on Saturday night. That result, combined with Notre Dame's overtime victory against Pittsburgh, helped nudge the Ducks by the Irish this week.

Alabama (.9957) is a rock solid No. 1 in both the polls and the BCS computer ratings this week. The Tide needs only to win out to reach the BCS title game for the third time in four seasons.

Kansas State (.9318) is third in the polls and in the computers, but second overall.

The Wildcats defeated Oklahoma State last Saturday night 44-30.

TCU hosts KSU in Ft. Worth on Saturday.  After that, the Wildcats finish their season with Baylor and Texas.
