ACC Football results for Week 9

We are at the point of the season when we are getting a good look at who are the true contenders and pretenders in the Atlantic Coast Conference.

So far, the ACC has had a strong year, with Clemson and NC State getting a solid ranking to start the season. At the same time, teams like Wake Forest and Syracuse found their way into the Associated Press Top 25 Poll by midway through.

However, after week nine, ACC placement in the top 25 could see a dramatic change.

As UNC sits in the driver’s seat of the standings with a decent lead, considering games left in the season, we look at how the rest of the ACC faired this weekend.
