Ben and Matt's Top 25: Week Eight

So it is lined up with Alabama and LSU at the top, and the two will square off in less than two weeks, so whichever is No. 1 and whichever is No. 2 doesn't matter.
Stanford was perhaps the most impressive team on Saturday, beating the crap out of a pretty good Washington team.
Things are starting to take shape with undefeated Oklahoma and Wisconsin going down. Stanford, along with Oklahoma State, Boise State and Clemson all benefit, as does sleeper Kansas State, which has a shot at Oklahoma this week.
USC appears in the rankings again after winning in South Bend.

2. LSU
3. Stanford
4. Oklahoma State
