The 2013 Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) football season was an NCAA football season that was played from August 29, 2013, to January 7, 2014.[1] It was the first season of play for former Big East Conference members Pittsburgh and Syracuse. Syracuse played in the Atlantic Division, while Pittsburgh played in the Coastal Division. It was also the last season for Maryland in the ACC as they moved to the Big Ten Conference in 2014.
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. The Coastal division consisted of Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Virginia, and Virginia Tech.[2] The division champions, Duke and Florida State, met in December in the 2013 ACC Championship Game, located in Charlotte, North Carolina at Bank of America Stadium.
The 2013 ACC Preseason Poll was announced at the ACC Football Kickoff meetings in Greensboro, NC on July 22. Miami was voted to win Coastal division while Clemson was voted to win the Atlantic division and the conference. Tajh Boyd of Clemson was voted the Preseason ACC Player of the Year.[3]

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.
