This is the Bruins first appearance in the AP Polls in 2023, and they will look to stay in it for the remainder of the season. 

The rise in the rankings comes after their dominant win against the San Diego State Aztecs, 35-10. The defense was the difference maker in their win last night, and they'll look to lean on that for the weeks to come. 

There are seven other Pac-12 schools in the Top 25, and there is no question this is the deepest the Conference of Champions has been in a long time. 

The Bruins will look to continue to ride high as they head back to the Rose Bowl for their Week 3 matchup against North Carolina Central.
