The ACC Football Kickoff starts in 62 days, and Clemson will likely earn the most votes as the prohibitive conference favorite.
A recent conversation with a Miami fan – the U – is the genesis of me wanting to look up ACC football championships and Clemson’s place in that history. The Miami fan was a little put out because I mentioned that I needed to see Miami win something – anything – before I would vote for them to win a conference title or even pick them as a breakout team.
I stated that Miami has been in the ACC since 2004 and has yet to win a conference title, and hasn’t won a major bowl since defeating Florida State 16-14 in the 2004 Orange Bowl.
