What a month of football all in one weekend. The ACC + 1 teams delivered some of the most unusual (as in finishes), rewarding and legendary games in Week 1 that we’ve seen in quite a while. The ACC Nation Power Poll for Week 2 reflects the somewhat wacky nature of the wins/losses. The leaders on the board aren’t surprising but some of the movement among other teams is this go around.

Note that the ACC Nation Power Poll is for the ACC + 1 which includes Notre Dame. The Irish are included as they play a semi-schedule with conference teams.
If Week 1 didn’t catch you off guard or keep you on the edge of your seat you may want to check your pulse for signs of life. It featured the debut of multiple year one coaches, new schemes, different faces and skillsets plus some of the wildest back and forth games we’ve seen in years. Top that off with the number of games that came down to the last minutes or were decided by errant kicks.
