AP Top 25 poll: Florida State still No. 1; UCLA jumps into top 10

Published Nov. 23, 2014 2:15 p.m. ET

The top four teams in the AP Top 25 poll remained unchanged for the first time since September, with Florida State retaining the top ranking for a second straight week.

The Seminoles, which fell to No. 2 in the Top 25 coaches poll, needed a field goal in the final seconds to defeat Boston College and stay unbeaten.

UCLA rose two spots to No. 9 after beating city rival UCLA.

Next weekend provides the opportunity for the next big rankings shakeup, as Alabama faces Auburn in the Iron Bowl and Mississippi State faces Ole Miss in the Egg Bowl.
