Utah football moved up three spots in the Coaches Poll Sunday to No. 18 and two spots in the AP Top 25 to No. 19 after a 19-14 win over Oregon State.
The Utes, now bowl eligible, are one of two Pac-12 teams ranked in both polls this week, behind No. 5 Washington.
The top 10 of the Coaches Poll remained the same from last week, with Alabama on top followed by Ohio State, Clemson, Michigan, Washington, Texas A&M, Louisville, Baylor, Nebraska and Wisconsin.
The top five of the AP Top 25 shifted slightly, with Alabama and Ohio State remaining at the top followed by Michigan, Clemson and Washington.
North Carolina and West Virginia were among the biggest risers in both polls, while Ole Miss and Tennessee dropped precipitously. The Volunteers fell eight spots in the Coaches Poll and nine spots in the AP Top 25 after a blowout loss to Alabama.
