The Atlantic Coast Conference consisted of 14 members in two divisions. The Atlantic division consisted of Boston College, Clemson, Florida State, Maryland, North Carolina State, Syracuse, and Wake Forest.

Coaches

Three universities hired new coaches for the 2013 football season. NC State hired Dave Doeren from Northern Illinois after he led the Huskies to back-to-back MAC championships.[5] With this hire, Doeren was made the second highest paid coach in the ACC (behind Florida State's Jimbo Fisher) and the 27th highest paid coach in the country.[6] Boston College also changed coaches, hiring Steve Addazio from Temple. Addazio had only been a head coach for 2 years, however, Boston College athletic director Brad Bates stated that he has had Addazio on his short list of coaches for years.[7] Syracuse promoted their defensive coordinator, Scott Shafer, of the previous 4 years to head coach after their previous head coach, Doug Marrone, left for a job coaching the Buffalo Bills of the NFL.[8] They will join Paul Chryst of Pittsburgh (due to conference realignment) as new coaches in the ACC.
