With November approaching, it’s time to start looking at what teams need to do in order to make the ACC championship game. In the old divisional format, BC fans got used to being mostly eliminated by now, as there was always an elite Clemson or Florida State team blocking us out. In the new division-less format, the league’s standout team no longer blocks BC, as they can compete against the rest of the conference for the number two spot.
