The non-BCS conferences, combined, might be the most impressive "conference" in the USA Today coaches poll for Week 8.
Three teams appear in the poll, and all three are in the top nine. And it certainly doesn't hurt Boise State's push to be atop the BCS rankings for the Broncos to be ranked second in this poll.
Full non-BCS rankings:
- No. 2 Boise State
- No. 4 TCU
- No. 9 Utah
