The only loss was No. 8 Florida getting crushed by Missouri.
Miami handed Clemson its second-worst home loss in the Dabo Swinney era. After piling up 41 points against the Tigers, the Hurricanes have scored 248 points, setting a program record through five games.
Among the top 10 teams, Notre Dame got the toughest test, facing North Carolina. The Irish led 21-20 early in the third quarter before a 17-point run put the Tar Heels away.
