Clemson continues to reign while Georgia Tech has a pulse in the ACC Football Power Rankings with two consecutive wins. Miami continues to plummet.

I went from feeling incomplete

to having love abundantly

so I propose a toast to us

being in love,

every since we’ve been together

life keeps getting better, better

Better and Better by Eric Benet

Welcome back to headquarters between the company developing the official Textile Bowl trophy, Tobacco Road, and the future site of the David Cutcliffe Memorial Trophy. For many ACC football teams, things are getting better. Some are having issues, but let’s stay positive for now.

DJ Uiagalelei has gotten better in every game this season. His progress has extinguished any Cade Klubnik talk. Clemson still needs a vertical threat to emerge, but if Will Shipley and company can keep running the football, that will keep defenses from playing two safeties high.

Kudos to Georgia Tech interim head coach Brent Key. The Wramblin’ Wreck is 2-0 since Key has taken over for embattled coach Geoff Collins. The North Carolina Tar Heels have found some defense. Sure, it was against Virginia Tech and Miami but take it when you can get it. You are who your record says you are.

So, to the electricity of the Dome, Enter Sandman, and the most exciting 25 seconds in college football, here are the ACC Football Power Rankings heading into week seven.
