Impressive! I never would have guessed. (BTW, VT actually has 21 ACC wins, but the rest of the numbers are correct).

Here's the in-conference winning % (excluding conference championship games and ND games) since 2013 (Pitt's & Syracuse's first seasons) through this past weekend:

Team Wins-Losses (Winning %)
Clemson 42-5 (89.4%)
Florida St 32-15 (68.1%)
Miami 27-19 (58.7%)
Pitt 26-20 (56.5%)
Virginia Tech 26-20 (56.5%)
Louisville 21-18 (53.8%)
Georgia Tech 24-23 (51.1%)
North Carolina 23-24 (48.9%)
Duke 22-24 (47.8%)
Boston College 18-28 (39.1%)
NC State 18-28 (39.1%)
Maryland 3-5 (37.5%)
Syracuse 16-31 (34.0%)
Virginia 14-32 (30.4%)
Wake Forest 13-33 (28.3%)

And here the in-conference winning % since 2014 through this past weekend, encompassing the past five seasons and also the time period that league membership existed as currently construed:

Team Wins-Losses (Winning %)
Clemson 35-4 (89.7%)
Florida St 24-15 (61.53%)
Pitt 23-15 (60.5%)
Miami 22-16 (57.9%)
Virginia Tech 21-17 (55.3%)
Louisville 21-18 (53.8%)
Georgia Tech 19-20 (48.7%)
North Carolina 19-20 (48.7%)
NC State 18-20 (47.4%)
Duke 16-22 (42.1%)
Boston College 14-24 (36.8%)
Virginia 14-24 (36.8%)
Syracuse 12-27 (30.8%)
Wake Forest 11-27 (28.9%)

This is the kind of stuff that wins bar bets.

Yep, the VT number was a typo. My apologies for that.

So basically Clemson stands out, followed by several teams with similar long-term W-L records. Of course, the poor results at FSU, VT and especially UL brought all of those programs down to earth this season - but none of that should take away from what Pitt has accomplished in ACC football.

Nice to see the ACC This Morning crew reads this forum.

If my records are accurate, since Pitt and Syracuse joined the ACC the Atlantic and Coastal teams have split their crossover games 42-42.
