Florida State is 8-0 entering Week 10. The Seminoles and Louisville are the only ACC teams who appear in the AP Top 25 this week following losses from North Carolina and Duke.
FSU is hoping to reach the College Football Playoff for the first time since the 2014 season. That was also the last year that FSU won the ACC title.
Florida State will go on the road to face Pitt in Week 10.
