The college football schedule is nearing the midway point, and for many ACC teams the 2023 season has already been quite a rollercoaster. The conference boasted early-season success against the SEC in nonconference play but also suffered losses at the hands of Northern Illinois, Bowling Green and Marshall in the first half of the season. 

Despite some bad losses, there are five ACC teams in the AP Top 25, including three that are off to undefeated starts: No. 4 Florida State, No. 12 North Carolina and No. 14 Louisville. And while those three teams are not scheduled play each other in the regular season — a storyline that has sent us all scrambling to research the tiebreakers for a new division-less ACC — the fact that there are three top-15 teams without a loss at this point has provided some strength to offset some of the league’s more disappointing starts.

With the midseason point on the horizon, let’s hand out grades for all 14 teams in the ACC. Keep in mind there’s still enough time left to change the final grade but also plenty of chances to lose all of the credit earned to this point.
