Indiana visits Ohio State on Saturday in a massive conference showdown. Oregon is on bye before hosting Washington Nov. 30th. Penn State visits Minnesota on Saturday.

Boise State moves up a spot in the AP poll after a comeback win over San Jose State. The Broncos are No. 12. Washington State drops six spots after losing at New Mexico but remain in the poll at No. 25.
