After getting run over by Syracuse to open the season, Louisville went to Orlando and won a hard fought victory over UCF 20-14. That is a nice W for the ACC. UCF has won at least 9 games in 4 of the previous 5 seasons, and a bit prior to that George O'Leary had 4 double digit win teams over 5 seasons. U CF is a consistent winner, including some Ws over SEC teams and in top level bowls.
That Syracuse could pound Louisville, which then defeated UCF in Orlando suggest that the ACC has depth and quality.
The most important game for the ACC this weekend is Tennessee at Pitt. Both are ranked. A win over a ranked SEC team by the tea that many think will win the Coastal will nudge many fans of the sport to recognize the quality of ACC football.
