ACC Team of the Week : Georgia Tech – for a 28-23 win over Miami
17. Florida State (1-9)
Last Week: 17
I think BYE week is a -17 against FSU this week. Their football program is a walking talking LOL right now after another blow out loss. This time a 49 point defeat to Notre Dame.
16. Stanford (2-7)
Last Week: 16
Stanford better be ready for Louisville or it could get real ugly real fast.
15. Wake Forest (4-5)
Last Week: 11
Wake Forest let a close one get away against Cal. The Deacs will have a real hard time reaching a bowl game now. An improved UNC team is this week.
14. Virginia Tech (5-5)
Last Week: 9
No ACC team has been on more of a roller coaster than Virginia Tech. It’s currently on a nose dive after a listless effort in a 24-14 loss to Clemson. They get a BYE week before facing a tough game at Duke.
13. NC State (5-5)
Last Week: 7
We thought NC State was improved, we were wrong after the Wolfpack got thumped at home by double digits by Duke. They get a week to think about it before heading to Georgia Tech where the Jackets haven’t lost at home this year.
12. Virginia (5-4)
Last Week: 15
Virginia came up with a surprising win at Pittsburgh. This gives the Hoos a puncher’s chance at reaching a bowl. Can they give Notre Dame a game this week?
11. Syracuse (6-3)
Last week: 6
Syracuse couldn’t handle BC this past week, and now they go on the road to face a Cal team in a bowl pecking order matchup.
10. Boston College (5-4)
Last Week: 14
Good thing BC beat Syracuse because now they head to SMU with the Mustangs eyeing an ACC Title birth.
9. North Carolina (5-4)
Last Week: 13
Should I really have UNC this high? Well they have 2 wins in a row, and now get Wake Forest to make it 3 in a row potentially.
8. California (5-4)
Last Week: 12
Cal and Syracuse is a very intriguing game this week. The Cal offense has come alive the last two sgames coring over 40 in both.
7. Pitt (7-1)
Last week: 5
Pitt is rapidly letting a special season slip away after an ugly loss to Virginia at home. Now they host a Clemson team that played inspired at Virginia Tech.
6. Georgia Tech (6-4)
Last Week : 10
Georgia Tech produced one of the biggest upsets of the year knocking off Miami 28-23 to get bowl eligible. Now they get a week off to enjoy it from a brilliant coaching effort.
5. Duke (7-3)
Last Week: 7
Duke handled NC State, and has an extra week to get ready for reeling Virginia Tech.
4. Clemson (7-2)
Last Week: 4
Clemson looked like the team you would expect in the 2nd half of their game with Virginia Tech. They still have slim hopes of reaching the ACC Title game, so they have to win at Pittsburgh.
3. Louisville (6-3)
Last Week: 3
Louisville has a great chance to keep moving up the polls as they have Stanford this week.
2. Miami (9-1)
Last Week: 1
Miami was stunned at Georgia Tech, and it unseated the Canes off the top spot in the ACC. They need to use the BYE week to get things straight before they finish with Wake Forest and Syracuse after the BYE Week.
1. SMU (8-1)
Last Week: 2
SMU hosts Boston College as they potentially start their march to the ACC Title game. SMU you made it to the top of the ACC power poll!
