1. Georgia Tech (9-1, 6-1). Back-to-back weeks that the Yellow Jackets have dodged a bullet. For a team that is 7th in the latest incarnation of the BCS rankings, they must play better, no question. However, they clinched the Coastal division with this win, and that deserves a ton of credit. Last Week: 1

2. Miami (7-2, 4-2). This is the Miami team we're all used to seeing. Granted, last week's demolition came against a weak UVA team, but Miami has proved all season that they were worth the preseason hype. The Canes will be out for blood against UNC this week, looking to get their first win against former UM head coach Butch Davis. Last Week: 3

3. Clemson (6-3, 4-2). Down at halftime to FSU had everyone in Tigertown a little worried, but Clemson behind (who else?) RB C.J. Spiller produced a furious comeback and beat the Seminoles to move into sole possession of the top spot in the Atlantic division. Spiller has legitimate Heisman potential, but the Tigers will have to turn heads the rest of the year if that is going to gain any more momentum. Last Week: 2

4. Virginia Tech (6-3, 3-2). Good for the Hokies to get back on track against ECU. RB Ryan Williams especially needed to atone for his game-changing fumble the week before, and his 179 yard performance certainly made up for it. Tech won't win the ACC this year, but there is no reason to think that this season is a failure by any stretch. Last Week: 4

5. Boston College (6-3, 3-2). The Eagles had a bye week last week, but they didn't need any extra preparation to face a struggling Virginia team. What BC does need, however, is to take care of business the rest of the year if they want to make it to the ACC championship game. Last Week: 6

6. North Carolina (6-3, 2-3). This season has been a little disappointing for the Heels this year due to the inordinate amount of injuries, but it is always nice to beat your biggest rival when you have the opportunity. The toughest game left on the schedule is this week when the Hurricanes come to Chapel Hill. Last Week: 8

7. Dook (5-4, 3-2). Tough loss for the Blue Devils, but this season still has to be considered a vast improvement over what they've been watching in Wallace Wade Stadium for the last decade. It doesn't get any easier with Georgia Tech coming to town, but if the Blue Devils are for real an upset might not be out of the question. Last Week: 5

8. Florida State (4-5, 2-4). Seminole Nation: it's time to start worrying about any postseason chances this team might have left. With this loss the Seminoles need to win at least two of their next three to make it to a bowl game, starting this week against Wake Forest in Winston-Salem, and remember the Deacs have had FSU's number the last two or three years. And did I mention that QB Christian Ponder is out for the rest of the season with a separated shoulder? Last Week: 7

9. Wake Forest (4-6, 2-4). The Demon Deacons almost pulled out a miracle win last week, but unfortunately it was not to be as they fell to Georgia Tech in overtime. This team has been up and down all season, but it looks as though they will be staying home this postseason unless they can beat both FSU and Dook. Last Week: 9

10. NC State (4-5, 1-4). The first conference win for the Wolfpack happens in Week 10. Hardly what coach Tom O'Brien and his staff had in mind for this year, especially with QB Russell Wilson returning and high preseason hopes for the rest of the team. It doesn't look good for the immediate future either, with Clemson, Virginia Tech, and UNC left on the schedule. Last Week: 11

11. Virginia (3-6, 2-3). Coach Al Groh and the rest of the Cavaliers staff should be a little nervous for what is going to happen the rest of the season - and after the season - after getting thoroughly embarrassed by a more talented Miami team. With BC, Clemson, and VT left, UVA could be looking at a 3-9 campaign, and possibly a new head coach. Last Week: 10

12. Maryland (2-7, 1-4). Maryland is the first ACC team to be eliminated from postseason play, and it really should come as no surprise; this team has been awful. There was little to no offensive production for the Terps last week against an injury-depleted NC State team, and Maryland couldn't stop State from racking up over 400 yards of offense. This team will be lucky to win another game all year. Last Week: 12
