For the first time, Oregon is No. 1 in The Associated Press college football poll.
The Ducks climbed one place to the top spot during an off week after previous No. 1 Ohio State lost 31-18 at Wisconsin on Saturday night.
Boise State also moved up one place to No. 2. Oklahoma jumped three spot to No. 3, passing No. 4 TCU. Auburn moved up two spots to fifth.
Ohio State dropped 10 spots to 11th.
Oregon becomes the 43rd team to hold the No. 1 ranking in the AP media poll, which dates to 1936. Ohio State's loss came a week after then-No. 1 Alabama was beaten by South Carolina.
Oregon will try to avoid becoming the third straight No. 1 team to lose when it plays at home against UCLA on Thursday night.
