Countdown to Kickoff: 47 Days

Predictions are normally pretty meaningless. As I do the ACC Preview for the third time in my tenure with From the Rumble Seat, I think this year’s ACC could very well be the hardest to predict with the vast number of coaching changes, but I will give it my best shot. Today, we start with the ACC Coastal Division.

Note: These rankings reflect any and all tie-breakers.

1 - Pittsburgh (6-2)

Wins: Duke, Georgia Tech, Miami, Syracuse, Virginia, Virginia Tech

Losses: Clemson, North Carolina

Key Players: QB Nate Peterman, RB James Conner, DE Ejuan Price, CB Avonte Maddox

What does Pittsburgh need to do this year: Establish James Conner again and grow on defense.
