ACC Team of the Week : Miami – for a 26-7 win over Florida
17. Virginia Tech (1-3, 0-0)
Last Week: 17
Virginia Tech showed a little life against beating Wofford 38-6, but that’s not enough to lift them out of the bottom spot here. Now if they beat NC State…
16. Boston College (1-2, 0-1)
Last Week: 16
Boston College is still stinging after losing to Stanford in Week 3. They host erratic Cal this week.
15. Stanford (1-3, 1-1)
Last Week: 15
It was back to reality for Stanford after getting thumped by Virginia. San Jose State is on Saturday.
14. Wake Forest (2-1, 0-1)
Last Week: 14
Wake Forest has had 2 weeks to prepare for Georgia Tech. Can they pull off a stunner?
13. North Carolina (2-2, 0-0)
Last Week: 13
UCF crushed UNC 34-9. The Heels haven’t looked competitive against P4 teams. They get a week off before hosting reeling Clemson.
12. Clemson (1-3, 0-2)
Last Week: 4
Clemson plummets in our power poll after getting trounced by Syracuse. You are what your record is, and Clemson at the moment is just a bad football team.
11. Pitt (2-1, 0-0)
Last week: 10
I’m still wondering how Pitt blew that West Virginia game. They can get their season back on track with a win against Louisville.
10. California (3-1, 0-0)
Last Week: 7
Cal got blasted by San Diego St 34-0, bringing the Bears back down to earth. It was a stunning letdown for Cal after a 3-0 season start. Can they recover against Boston College?
9. SMU (2-2, 0-0)
Last Week: 8
SMU yet again fell apart in the 4th quarter to a Big 12 team – this time, TCU. They have a week to try and figure out their defensive issues.
8. NC State (3-1, 1-1)
Last Week:6
With a chance to get 4-0, NC State defense was a no-show against Duke. They get to host Virginia Tech this week.
7. Duke (2-2, 1-0)
Last Week:12
Duke came up with their best performance of the season in a 45-33 win over NC State. Syracuse, fresh off erasing Clemson, is next.
6. Syracuse (3-1, 1-0)
Last week: 11
Syracuse flies up these rankings after clobbering Clemson 34-21. It wasn’t as close as the score indicated. Syracuse looks like they can get on a roll, and Duke at home is next.
5. Virginia (3-1, 1-0)
Last Week: 9
Virginia has an offense that’s among the ACC’s best. They can throw a scare into Florida State Friday night.
4. Louisville (3-0, 0-0)
Last Week 5
Louisville finally plays a P4 team this week. They head to Pitt in a game that an ACC contender needs to win.
3. Georgia Tech (4-0, 1-0)
Last Week : 3
Georgia Tech had no trouble with Temple racing out to a 21-0 lead and winning 45-24. Can they win at Wake Forest and get to 5-0 before their BYE week?
2. Florida State (3-0, 0-0)
Last Week: 2
Before their massive showdown with Miami, Florida State has a tricky road game at improved Virginia.
1. Miami (4-0, 0-0)
Last Week: 1
Miami sent Florida to 1-3, and now gets a week off before their prime-time match-up with Florida State.
