The undefeated Huskies and Cougars are both in the top-10 of the Associated Press college football poll. Washington comes in a number 5 and Washington State is number 8 in the poll released Sunday.

The Dawgs moved up one spot after rolling past the Cal Golden Bears 38-7 Saturday at Husky Stadium. The Cougs moved up three spots after beating the Oregon Ducks 33-10 in Eugene.

There are two other Pac-12 teams in the Top-25. USC is 13th and Stanford is back in at 23rd after posting a 23-20 win over Utah Saturday. The Utes first loss of the year dropped them out of the Top-25.
