The Atlantic Coast Conference crown seems up for grabs after the league’s disappointing opening week performance. The league was 7-7 in Week 1, tied for worst showing among Power Five conferences. The ACC’s three schools in the preseason Top 25 all lost. No. 6 Clemson fell to Georgia, No. 24 North Carolina was beaten by Virginia Tech and No. 22 Miami lost to top-ranked Alabama. There were a couple of surprises, too. Charlotte won its first ever game against a Power Five program with its victory over Duke. Northern Illinois won at Georgia Tech. Win or lose, coaches believed it’s far too early to evaluate teams.
