ACC power rankings heading into Week 6
Another week of the 2022 college football season is behind us as each team around the ACC prepares for their upcoming Week 6 matchups.
Clemson is coming off another big-time win as they took down former No.10 NC State 30-20 as they hosted ESPN’s College GameDay. It was a statement in-conference win for the Tigers.
There were some great games around the ACC, with Wake Forest handling business on the road against Florida State and Georgia Tech upsetting Pittsburgh after Geoff Collins’ departure. The ACC has been a wild conference so far this season.
In college football, anything can happen on any given Saturday, as we’ve seen this season. So, how did Week 5 shake things up in the ACC? Who rose in our and fell in our rankings?
