COLUMBUS, Ohio - Ohio State stayed at No. 3 in the coaches poll released today and at No. 4 in the latest Associated Press poll.

The Buckeyes gained one point in the coaches poll, up to 1,399 points, and remained 67 points ahead of No. 4 Clemson. The coaches poll accounts for one-third of the BCS standings, which have not begun yet. Alabama is No. 1 with 59 first-place votes, while Oregon is second with three No. 1 votes.

In the AP poll, the Buckeyes lost 10 overall points. Ohio State is behind Alabama, which earned 56 first-place votes; Oregon, which received the other four votes; and Clemson.

Ohio State had 1,330 points last week and trailed Clemson by 17 for the third spot in the polls. This week, after a 76-0 win over Florida A&M, the Buckeyes had 1,320 points and trailed Clemson by 20 points. Oregon, while on a bye week, gained five points and picked up three first-place votes.

On my AP ballot, I had Alabama, Clemson, Miami, LSU, Stanford, Ohio State and Oregon as the top seven.
