After two weeks of action, here’s the latest AP Top 25 college football poll. This week’s poll features three ACC teams — the same as a week ago. As usual, Clemson leads the way.
- No. 2 Clemson
- No. 13 Virginia Tech
- No. 21 Miami
Boston College is on the verge on entering the top 25, but may need a road win at Wake Forest on Thursday night — weather permitting — to secure that. Other ACC teams receiving votes:
- Boston College (45)
- Duke (10)
- NC State (9)
- Florida State (1)
Quick Stats
No. 2 Clemson
In the road win at Texas A&M, Kelly Bryant became the first ACC quarterback since Lamar Jackson (Nov. 2017 vs. Kentucky) to complete 70 percent of his passes, and rush for at least 50 yards and a touchdown in a single game.
No. 13 Virginia Tech
Ball State transfer Damon Hazelton Jr. continues to impress — after four catches for 107 yards and a touchdown in the win over William & Mary, the 6-foot-2 wideout has six catches on nine targets this season, including two touchdown grabs.
No. 21 Miami
In a bit of a laugher, Miami hung 77 points on Savannah State — again; the Hurricanes have outscored the Tigers 154-7 the last two times they’ve faced off. According to Football Study Hall, Miami scored 6.36 points per scoring opportunity on Saturday.
