Our latest Game of the Week Preview focuses on two squads - Virginia Tech and North Carolina - who overcame slow starts and setbacks and emerged as power players in the ACC.

After a heartbreaking loss to Boise State, the Hokies returned home and lost to FCS James Madison. Since that loss, VT has reeled off seven straight wins in looking like the national power they were predicted to be in the preseason. North Carolina went through off-the-field issues that cost them some talented players in an 0-2 start, but have since won six of their last seven games.

Can the Heels prevail and stay in the divisional race? Or will the Hokies remain undefeated in the ACC?
