This Model Says It's A Two-Team Race For The ACC Championship | More Buzz About FSU Formal ACC Exit

Locked On ACC - Daily College Football & Basketball Podcast

Are Clemson and Florida State the only clear favorites to win the ACC? According to the ESPN SP+ model, and a conference preview by Bill Connelly, the Seminoles and Tigers combine for over a 51% chance to win the ACC. That leaves the rest of the field under 49%. FSU and Clemson have been the primary powers in recent years, but is this model too dismissive of what feels like a very open ACC? Clemson has big questions on offense while Florida State has a ton of new pieces. It’s worth noting that there are obvious questions elsewhere, too. Miami might have the most talent on paper but there are questions about coaching and newcomers.

Hosts Alex Donno and Kenton Gibbs discuss these conference predictions and Gibbs makes a case as to why Clemson cannot be trusted. Meanwhile, there is growing buzz that FSU could make a formal announcement in the near future that they are leaving the ACC. Donno explains why announcing before August 15th would be significant, although a formal announcement does not change the fact that multiple lawsuits are still moving at a snail’s pace. The guys discuss a “bold prediction” that states Miami and Georgia Tech will eventually join the Big Ten after FSU and Clemson do.
