NCAAF Top 10 - BCS vs AP - Total differences in Week 13?

Settled as 4

Places 2, 4, 6 and 8

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankingsindex

Background:

NOTE: Suspend time is end of the day Saturday.

Looking at the top 10, how many times will these disagree on a ranking? This is a line by line difference. For example, if the two polls switch #s 4 and 5, that's two differences, not just one, because both 4 and 5 are different.

For example, looking at week 9:

http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/rankingsindex?seasonYear=2008&weekNumber=10&seasonType=2

there are 4 differences:
5: USC vs Florida
6: Georgia vs Texas Tech
7: Texas Tech vs USC
8: Florida vs Georgia

The data so far is: 5, 4, 5, 5, 4


Settlement details: As reported by a major mainstream news source, such as:
