The Nevada Wolf Pack football team is moving up the Top 25 rankings once again.

The Wolf Pack, thanks to a 56-42 victory over Utah State on Saturday night at Mackay Stadium, returned to the Top 25 in both the Associated Press media poll and USA Today coaches' poll on Sunday. The Pack fell out of the Top 25 in both rankings after losing to Hawaii 27-21 two weeks ago in Honolulu.

The Wolf Pack is now ranked No. 25 in the Associated Press poll and No. 23 in the coaches' poll. The Pack has been ranked this season as high as No. 19 in the AP poll and No. 21 in the USA Today rankings.

The Pack also jumped up one spot in the BCS standings to no. 23 after debuting last week at No. 24.

Boise State fell to No. 4 in the BCS standings behind Oregon (1st), Auburn (2nd) and TCU (3rd).

Hawaii is No. 26 in both the AP and USA today rankings.

The Wolf Pack (7-1) will play at Idaho on Saturday.
