BYU Football Improves to No. 11 in AP Poll, No. 10 in Coaches Poll

BYU football is ranked for a seventh-straight week after a 5-0 start.

BYU improved to 6-0 for the first time since 2008 with a dominant win against Texas State. BYU's 6-0 start has earned them a spot in the top-25 for seven consecutive weeks.

AP released the seventh in-season AP top 25 on Sunday. It's important to remember that some of the ranked teams haven't played yet and others have played only one game. Most notably, the Big Ten kicked off their season yesterday which caused some shuffling in the rankings.

Here is the new AP top 25:

1. Clemson
2. Alabama
3. Ohio State
4. Notre Dame
5. Georgia
6. Oklahoma State
7. Cincinnati
8. Texas A&M
9. Wisconsin
10. Florida
11. BYU
12. Miami
13. Michigan
14. Oregon
15. North Carolina
16. Kansas State
17. Indiana
18. Penn State
19. Marshall
20. Coastal Carolina
21. USC
22. SMU
23. Iowa State
24. Oklahoma
25. Boise State

BYU will be heavy favorites on Saturday - a win would make BYU 7-0 heading into Boise for a game against the Broncos. Boise State is 1-0 with a convincing victory over Utah State. Boise State is ranked #25 in this week's AP poll.
