Another week of ACC football is in the books.

North Carolina’s loss to Virginia headlines a chaotic week of ACC action. That result leaves Florida State — who beat another strong team in Duke this week — as the lone undefeated team at the top of the standings.

Miami’s victory over Clemson in overtime with backup quarterback Emory Williams running the show also caused some movement at the top of the rankings this week. The Tigers slipped out of the top four this week following their third ACC loss of the season.

Here’s an updated look at Saturday Road’s ACC power rankings after Week 8:

14. Pitt (Last week: 11)

Pitt lost an absolute heartbreaker to Wake Forest in Week 8. The Panthers are now 2-5 and their bowl hopes are all but over.

13. Virginia (Last week: 14)

Mike Hollins scoring three touchdowns in Virginia’s upset of North Carolina might have been the best story of the weekend in college football. The Cavaliers absolutely deserved the upset and now have their first top-10 road win in program history.

12. Wake Forest (Last week: 13)

Wake Forest pulled off a miracle on Saturday vs. Pitt, scoring the game-winning TD with just seven seconds remaining. That’s Wake’s first ACC win of the season and it came with third string quarterback Santino Marucci calling the shots. Go figure.

11. Syracuse (Last week: 12)

Syracuse was off in Week 8. The Orange are hoping to be much healthier as they take on Virginia Tech in Week 9 in what will be a crucial game for both programs’ bowl chances.

10. NC State (Last week: 10)

NC State was idle in Week 8.

9. Georgia Tech (Last week: 7)

Georgia Tech lost a tough one at home on Saturday to Boston College. The Yellow Jackets probably needed to win that one if they were going to make a bowl this season. They enter Week 9 with three wins and still have Clemson, North Carolina and Georgia on their schedule. Georgia Tech will need to steal one of those and beat Virginia and Syracuse to get to six wins.

8. Virginia Tech (Last week: 9)

Virginia Tech was off in Week 8. The Hokies will face Syracuse on Thursday night in a game that will be crucial for both teams’ bowl chances.

7. Boston College (Last week: 8)

Boston College earned a massive win over Georgia Tech this weekend. Thomas Castellanos threw for 255 yards and rushed for 128 more in the victory. BC now has a very credible path to bowl eligibility that starts with a meeting vs. a 1-6 UConn team in Week 9.

6. Louisville (Last week: 5)

Louisville was idle in Week 8.

5. Clemson (Last week: 4)

Clemson’s loss to Miami with true freshman quarterback Emory Williams under center is a tough pill to swallow. The Tigers now have 3 ACC losses already this season and are 7-6 in their last 13 games dating back to last season. The Tigers’ bad turnover luck has been detrimental, but the era of dominant Clemson football feels like it’s in the distant past.

4. Miami (Last week: 6)

Mario Cristobal has now delivered wins over Texas A&M and Clemson in Year 2. If not for the Georgia Tech debacle, the Hurricanes would be well on their way to competing for a spot in the ACC Championship Game. Miami once again appears to be heading in the right direction.

3. North Carolina (Last week: 2)

North Carolina drops just one spot after taking the most puzzling loss of the entire 2023 season. It’s nearly a season-ruiner for the Tar Heels, who were starting to pick up steam as a College Football Playoff contender. UNC still has a path to the ACC Championship Game if it can win out from here.

2. Duke (Last week: 2)

Duke rises up to No. 2 this week despite the loss to Florida State. That says just as much about the disfunction in the ACC as it does about the Blue Devils, but they deserve it. With Riley Leonard healthy, this is absolutely one of the best teams in the ACC.

1. Florida State (Last week: 1)

Florida State is the last remaining unbeaten team in the ACC — both overall and in the conference standings. The Seminoles have been dominant, but clearly still have another gear they could reach as well. Jordan Travis and FSU’s offense can hang with any defense in the country. There are more concerns on the defensive side of the ball, but the Noles have shown they can rise to the occasion there as well.
