The ACC placed a pair of teams into the Week 10 BCS Standings, as Florida State and Clemson trickled up the rankings after easy wins.
Florida State moved from No. 12 to No. 9 after stomping Duke, 48-7, while Clemson moved up five spots from No. 18 to No. 13 after their 42-13 beatdown of Wake Forest. The conference continued to have extremely poor showings in the computer polls, as both squads are in the top ten of the two human polls used in the standings but finished lower.
The top of the standings were tweaked a bit as four Top Ten teams dropped games: Florida's loss dropped them to seventh, with Kansas State, Notre Dame, Oregon, and LSU rising to fill out a top five once again featuring Alabama as the near-consensus No. 1 team. The SEC placed five teams in the top ten of the rankings, the first time one conference has ever occupied half of the top ten slots.
Here's a full look at the standings.
