Due_Connection179 8 Last Week #9 vs Miami (Won 41 - 31) The score is a little closer than what it felt like last week, but UNC stays undefeated either way. Just like FSU, they have a pretty easy schedule going to the ACC Championship Game (depending on how healthy Riley is for Duke when they play). Next Week vs Virginia

GatorBolt 8 Moved them up because they are one of the 8 P5 undefeateds and they deserve that respect. This does feel like Mack Brown's best chance to grab an ACC title for Chapel Hill.

throwaway_6786 8 Solid win over a pretty good Miami team (clock management blunders notwithstanding). The Tar Heels haven't had a really rough schedule so far, but outside of the App State game, they've overpowered everyone they've played.
