King of the Hill: ACC Football Power Rankings (Week 3)

Another weekend of action in the ACC and another week of power rankings. Here’s how I rank the conference teams based on what we’ve seen so far. Number in parentheses is the team’s ranking last week.

  1. (1) Clemson (3-0) - Routed Syracuse, 41-6
  2. (2) Virginia (3-0) - 31-24 win over Florida State
  3. (6) Louisville (2-1) - 38-21 win over Western Kentucky
  4. (8) Wake Forest (3-0) - 24-18 win over North Carolina
  5. (4) North Carolina (2-1) - Lost to Wake Forest
  6. (10) Miami (1-2) - 63-0 win over Bethune-Cookman
  7. (9) Florida State (1-2) - Lost to Virginia
  8. (11) Pitt (1-2) - Lost 17-10 to Penn State
  9. (3) North Carolina State (2-1) - Lost 44-27 to West Virginia
  10. (5) Boston College (2-1) - Lost 48-24 to Kansas
  11. (7) Virginia Tech (2-1) - 24-17 win over Furman
  12. (12) Syracuse (1-2) - Lost to Clemson
  13. (13) Duke (2-1) - 41-18 win over Middle Tennessee
  14. (14) Georgia Tech (1-2) - Lost 27-24 to the Citadel

After this weekend’s games, I’m not sure ranking these teams is any easier than it was in Week 1.
