NEW YORK (AP) – Notre Dame is the beneficiary of losses by the<\/p>\n
top two teams in last week’s AP poll.<\/p>\n
The Fighting Irish jump two slots to No. 1 — and it’s<\/p>\n
unanimous. It’s Notre Dame’s first time at the top since 1993.<\/p>\n
A week after dropping from 1 to 4 following its first loss,<\/p>\n
Alabama moves up to No. 2, followed by one-loss Georgia and<\/p>\n
undefeated Ohio State.<\/p>\n
Notre Dame and Alabama are 1-2 in the BCS standings as well.<\/p>\n
Notre Dame needs only to beat struggling rival Southern California<\/p>\n
to secure a spot in the BCS title game for the first time.<\/p>\n
Alabama has to win two games. The Crimson Tide must beat lowly<\/p>\n
Auburn at home to reach the SEC championship where the Tide will<\/p>\n
probably meet Georgia.<\/p>\n
After losing on Saturday, Oregon falls from first to fifth while<\/p>\n
Kansas State drops from 2 to 7 in the AP Rankings. Florida sits at<\/p>\n
No. 6.<\/p>\n
LSU, Texas A&M and Florida State continue the round out the top<\/p>\n
