Online sportsbook has the first AP college football poll of the regular season out with BYU making the biggest move, jumping 11 spots up to #9. The Cougars upset Oklahoma in Internet sportsbook wagering and made the biggest splash in the first regular season AP poll.
Online sportsbook indicates that Florida is a huge number one choice but Alabama actually got two first place votes this week even though they are #4 in the poll. Texas is at #2 and got the other two first place votes while USC is at #3. Last week as online sportsbook indicates, the Sooners were #3 but they plummeted to #13 this week. The loss of quarterback Sam Bradford and the ultimate loss of the game in college football betting to BYU really cost the Sooners.

Oklahoma State moved up to #5 as online sportsbook info indicates. That is their highest ranking since 1985 as online sportsbook has it.

Rounding out the Top 10 it is Penn State at #7 and California at #10.
BYU has been in the Top 10 before as sportsbook notes. Last season the Cougars made it up to #8. This week they go to New Orleans and play Tulane where they are favored in college football betting at the sportsbook and in two weeks they get Florida State in Provo.
