A pair of ACC teams bumped up slightly in the Week 10 edition of the BCS Rankings, as Florida State and Clemson checked in amongst the top 15 squads after easy wins.
Florida State squeaked into the top 10 at No. 9 after placing No. 12 last week and destroying Duke 48-7. Clemson moved up five spots from No. 18 to No. 13 after their easy 42-13 win over Wake Forest.
As would be expected, the SEC is completely dominant. Alabama, of course, maintained its top spot after an easy 38-7 win over a previously undefeated Mississippi State team. Florida stayed in the top 10 at No. 7 despite a loss to Georgia, who moved up to No. 6, while LSU and South Carolina also placed at Nos. 5 and 8 respectively. It's the first time five squads from the same conference have ever found their way into the top 10 in a week since the inception of the BCS.
