Under Frank Howard, Clemson won six ACC Championships from 1956-’69. Danny Ford led the Tigers to five ACC titles in the 1980s, while Charlie Pell (1978) and Ken Hatfield (1991) each won one. In the first 38 years of the league, no one won as many league titles as Clemson.
The ACC became know as Another Clemson Championship considering the way the Tigers dominated the conference. However, when Florida State joined the league in 1992, things changed. Suddenly Bobby Bowden’s program took over the ACC and put a stranglehold on it that lasted more than two decades.
From 1992-2014, the Seminoles won 15 ACC titles with Bobby Bowden and Jimbo Fisher at the helm.
