The big news of the weekend was UCLA's three-game sweep over Washington in Los Angeles, which vaulted the Bruins from No. 3 to No. 1 in both national polls and dropped the Huskies from No. 1 in both polls to No. 4. Oregon is second and Oklahoma third in both polls. Within the UCLA-Washington series, a very controversial moment occurred in Saturday's middle game of the series.

The Washington Huskies remained No. 1 in both major national polls, coming off a three-game sweep of Utah. U-Dub has now won its last 10 games.

The Ducks were impressive this past weekend in sweeping Arizona . No. 2/2 Oklahoma extended its winning streak to 24 games with a sweep of Iowa State. OU (from the Big 12) and No. 13/8 Florida State (from the ACC) are the only teams in the Top 15 not from either the Pac-12 or SEC.
