After a week at No. 3, Florida State returned to the No. 2 position in this week's edition of the BCS standings.

Florida State (8-0) handed Miami its first loss of the season on Saturday, giving it a big enough boost to surpass No. 3 Oregon.

Alabama (8-0) remained No. 1 in the country, while No. 4 Ohio State, No. 5 Stanford and No. 6 Baylor also stayed put.

Florida State earned a perfect rating from the BCS computers, earning the top spot in five of the six rankings. Alabama earned the other top ranking, but each team's highest and lowest computer rankings are thrown out and not used in the BCS formula.

Miami (7-1) fell four spots to No. 11 after its loss. The Hurricanes are now looking up at five other one-loss teams: Stanford, No. 7 Clemson, No. 8 Missouri, No. 9 Auburn and No. 10 Oklahoma.
