15.FC Dallas (+3) - The Texans rise in the rankings thanks to a four-point week, including a 2-0 win over Colorado, their first since late July. That game in hand will be crucial to their playoff hopes.
21.Colorado Rapids (no change) -  If it was anyone else besides Alan Gordon, you'd have to say celebrating a stoppage-time winner when you are already eliminated from the playoffs is a bit overboard. But it's Gordo, and thus, it's entertaining.
