Week 4: 9 games (6-3)
Continuing the trend from last week, the ACC posted a winning out-of-conference record, but failed to win in games against foes from the other major FBS conferences. Luckily, the league grabbed the nation’s attention this week with a great game between two quality top-10 teams, and produced a legitimate national title contender in Florida State. That game may have distracted casual viewers from the continuing parity elsewhere in the ACC.
vs. Big Ten (0-1): Syracuse continued to underachieve and fell to Minnesota on the road.
vs. Big 12 (0-2): Maryland played West Virginia tough, and lost by a respectable 31-21 margin.
Highlight: NC State is quietly making a comeback from their week 1 disappointment against Tennessee, and handily beat the Citadel this week, 52-14.
Lowlight: Virginia continued its slide and could not get going in their loss to TCU
