Ranking ACC Bowl Game Performances For 2016 Postseason
By Jason Parker
The ACC has had a postseason to remember in the college football world, coming up with several huge wins and making their voice heard as the top conference.
Entering the 2016 bowl season, many people were saying that the Big Ten was the best conference in college football this year. At the same time, the SEC made their usual claim for that title while the ACC, after sending Clemson to the playoff and FSU to a New Year’s Six bowl, knew it still had work to do if it wanted a shot at that title.
Well, I think we can safely say the ACC has let their voice be heard.
With the bowl games done and the CFP National Championship Game being all that is left, the home of the Tigers, Seminoles and 12 others finished with a 8-3 record – far and away the best of any Power Five conference this postseason. It isn’t just the number of wins, but also the quality of what took place involving many teams from the conference.
Let’s take a look at how the 11 bowls featuring ACC teams ranked after everything was said and done.
