Week 4 of the college football season is in the books, and the season never disappoints. Just when you think that you have everything figured out, guess again.
That was the case again in the ACC this past weekend after there were some upsets, some surprises, and even some games a lot closer than many thought they might be. With that said, let's fire up the latest ACC Football Power Rankings for Week 5.
Week 5 ACC Football Power Rankings
It was a bye week for Fran Brown and the Orange, who will travel to UConn for a non-conference game as a favorite for now. This feels like a must-win for Syracuse before upcoming games at Virginia and at home against Louisville.
In case you missed it late Saturday night, the Cardinal picked up a come-from-behind win over Georgia Tech for their first ACC win. Their reward? A trip to Winston-Salem to facing the soaring Demon Deacons.
Mike Norvell picked up a 34-7 win over Central Arkansas and now will have a big test at home on Saturday afternoon against Virginia. This feels like the beginning of a stretch that will be key for Norvell's future in Tallahassee.
Things are not looking great for Georgia Tech after a loss at Stanford late on Saturday night. It's going to be a long two-week break for Brent Key and his club, which will host Duke on Oct. 10.
The Wolfpack bounced back from a devastating loss at Vanderbilt with a 10-point win over App State at home. Now they get an angry Louisville squad at home next weekend.
The Eagles were in perfect position for an upset of Virginia Tech on Saturday in terrible weather conditions, but a late rally from the Hokies dropped BC to .500.
Cal suffered a loss at home on Friday night to Clemson and will travel to UNLV this upcoming weekend before hosting Virginia Tech Columbus Day Weekend.
Bill Belichick and his staff had a bye this week after last weekend's loss at Clemson and will host Notre Dame this weekend as a three-touchdown underdog.
Dabo Swinney and the Tigers picked up a nice road win at Cal and are quietly 2-0 in the ACC. They get Miami at home on Saturday night. All of a sudden, that's a rather big game.
There might be no hotter coach in the ACC right now than Jake Dickert. What a win at Louisville on Saturday. They played Miami tough and don't sleep on the Demon Deacons this season. A legit ACC dark horse.
Virginia rebounded from a loss to West Virginia by beating Delaware at home and heads to Florida State this weekend to resume their ACC schedule.
The Mustangs rebounded from their loss at Louisville last week by beating Missouri State at home by 10 points. They go back into ACC play this weekend, hosting Boston College.
What a difference a week makes. After beating SMU at home last week, the Cardinals lost to Wake Forest at home. One step forward for Jeff Brohm, then one step back for Jeff Brohm.
Mason Heintschel threw six touchdowns in a 59-0 rout of Bucknell before playing their first road game of the season this Friday night at Virginia Tech.
Manny Diaz and the Blue Devils are quietly having a good start to the season and are undefeated after a 52-7 rout of William & Mary over the weekend. They are off this week and head to Georgia Tech in two weeks.
The Hokies survived the weather conditions at BC on Saturday for a 21-14 win. Now, they face a short week and will host Pittsburgh on Friday night at Lane Stadium.
The beat goes on for the Hurricanes with a non-conference win over Central Michigan before heading to Clemson this weekend.
