Florida State, Ohio State 1-2 in BCS
No. 1 Florida State and No. 2 Ohio State have taken over the top spots in the BCS standings with just one week to go before the final pairing for the VIZIO BCS National Championship Game is announced.
The Seminoles and Buckeyes are the only two remaining undefeated teams from the automatic qualifying conferences and have the inside track to play for the title.
Alabama, which had been the No. 1 team in each previous edition of this year's standings, fell from the ranks of the unbeatens after losing to Auburn on the final play of the game Saturday.
Auburn moved up to No. 3 by winning the Iron Bowl, while Alabama dropped to No. 4, barely ahead of No. 5 Missouri.
Auburn will play Missouri on Saturday in the SEC Championship Game, but both teams will likely need either Florida State or Ohio State to lose in order to move into the top two.
Florida State is ranked first in both polls used by the BCS and is also first in the computer ratings. The Seminoles need only beat No. 20 Duke in the ACC Championship Game to remain at the top of the standings.FEAR THE SPEAR!

Congrats! The Noles have certainly earned the #1 ranking and the spot in BCS Championship Game! They've blown past every opponent without breathing hard (Duke has NO chance Saturday) and no matter who they play for the Title, will waltz through them also. (On a side note, not that I'm biased or anything, but I hope they draw the Buckeyes and give Urbie the beatdown he and his band of ingrates deserve!)
