ACC Football: Chop Chat’s Final ACC Power Rankings
By Kelvin Hunt
Miami (9-4, 5-3)
Miami won nine games in the first year under Mark Richt. It wasn’t the season most ‘Canes fans were expecting, especially not losing three games after the loss to FSU.
However, Miami got back on track and won their last five games, including their first bowl win in a decade against No. 16 West Virginia.
Miami will be losing quarterback Brad Kaaya and running back Joseph Yearby to the NFL Draft. Richt has 20 commitments for the 2017 class that’s ranked No. 3 in the ACC and No. 16 nationally.
