This week’s Atlantic Coast Conference power rankings take an interesting turn.

With Virginia Tech losing to Syracuse this week, the ACC’s Coastal division is, once again, a wide open race. The Clemson Tigers are creating distance in the Atlantic division but the challenges still remain steep.

The Coastal division is anybody’s to win as the Pittsburgh Panthers find themselves inching closer to the title behind UNC. Clemson is still alive and undefeated despite a late scare in the fourth quarter.

Without further adieu, here are this week’s ACC Power Rankings.

2385. . (3-3). Previous: . Boston College Golden Eagles. 14. team

Coming off a bye week, the Boston College Golden Eagles face a hot Syracuse Orange football team this week. Head coach Steve Addazio is on the proverbial hot seat.

But coming off a bye week, they look to win their first conference game of the season. With two of their worst ACC losses of the season behind them, they’ll look to get a win this week in a tough game. Making a bowl game is still a real possibility this season.
