NEW YORK (AP) -- Boise State jumped back ahead of TCU in The Associated Press college football poll after the Horned Frogs played their closest game of the season.

No. 1 Oregon and No. 2 Auburn also held their places, though the Ducks' narrow escape in a 15-13 victory Saturday night at
California cost them 11 first-place votes and left them with 38.

Auburn, which erased an early 14-point deficit and beat Georgia 49-31, picked up 10 first-place votes for a total of 12.

The big move came at Nos. 3 and 4.

TCU had moved ahead of Boise State last week after a 47-7 victory against previously unbeaten Utah. But that win didn't look
quite so impressive after the Utes were beaten 28-3 at Notre Dame on Saturday. TCU also had to hold off San Diego State 40-35.

Missouri is No. 15 and Iowa dropped to No. 21.
