Power Rankings: Week 11

Mike Magee and the Galaxy still lead Real Salt Lake at the top of our Power Rankings.

If anyone's going to beat the Galaxy, it's Real Salt Lake. At least, that's according to our panel, who this week bumped the defending champs into the second spot behind Bruce Arena's juggernaut. Houston, meanwhile, dropped after a tough week at the mercy of two of the league's best.
