There's a new No. 1 in the BCS rankings and it's not the same team that occupies the top spot in both the AP and USA Today polls.

Auburn is the new No. 1 in the BCS rankings, followed by the Oregon Ducks, the consensus No. 1 in the polls. Boise State is the odd man out at the moment, sitting at third.

Auburn was ranked fourth in the initial BCS standings released last week, but used a conference win over previously unbeaten LSU on Saturday to catapult up the standings.

Auburn benefitted from another group of Tigers — the Missouri Tigers — who knocked off last week's BCS No. 1, Oklahoma. The 36-27 win for the Missouri bumped them to the sixth spot in the rankings, while Oklahoma fell all the way to No. 9.

The Top 10 is listed below.
