ACC FB: Most 10+ Win Seasons

Inspired by the AllThingsFSU post "10-win seasons", here's a table of all 15 ACC member schools with the number of seasons when they won double-digit games, as well as the last time they accomplished that feat:

Team#seasonslastcomments
Florida State25202214 in a row, 1987-2000
Notre Dame2220215-year streak ended
Clemson182022active streak 12
Miami152017
Virginia Tech1420168 in a row, 2004-11
Georgia Tech92014
UNC820159 wins in 2022
Pitt820219 wins in 2022
Syracuse7201810 losses in 2020
Louisville62013started in 1962
BC42007
Wake Forest22021
Duke120139 wins in 2022
NC State12002
Virginia11989

The 25 double-digit winning seasons compiled by the Seminoles is particularly impressive when you consider that FSU has been playing football about half as many years as Notre Dame.

Ten ACC schools have 6 or more 10-win seasons, while four of the remaining teams have two or fewer. I was shocked to find that the NC State Wolfpack haven't broken double-digits more than once; they have had lots of 9 and 8-win seasons.

Indeed, three ACC teams came up one game shy last season by winnng 9 games (UNC, Pitt, and Duke).

You might also consider the Oklahoma losses in 1979 and 1980 as losing the title game.

Additionally we have finished second in the AP or Coaches poll in..

1987 (both)

1989 (coaches)

1992 (both)

Either you count the national title losses (3) or finishing second (also 3).
