NEW YORK — TCU's big victory wasn't enough for the Horned Frogs to make a move up the BCS standings.

TCU (10-0) on Sunday remained behind Florida, Alabama and Texas in the race to the national title game.

The Horned Frogs defeated Utah 55-28 on Saturday in what figured to be the most difficult game left on their schedule. But they remained stuck in fourth place in Bowl Championship Series standings.

TCU, from the Mountain West Conference, last week became the first team from a league without an automatic BCS bid to break into the top five of the standings.

Florida has been in first since the standings were initially released last month. Alabama is second and Texas is third.

Cincinnati is in fifth place and Boise State is sixth.

Utah fell to 21st and BYU is one spot below them.
