Clemson

The No. 2 team on our list last season moves back into the No. 1 spot. The Clemson Tigers have become the biggest obstacle to FSU winning the ACC over the past three years.

The ‘Noles have lost to the Tigers three consecutive times, but have been in position to win all three games.

The biggest difference in all three games has been quarterback play. Clemson has Deshaun Watson in two of those games and the ‘Noles has to play a true freshman last season against one of the best defenses in college football.

The bad news is Dabo Swinney somehow got all those guys to return to Clemson instead of entering the NFL Draft. The good news is the game will be in the Doak, and Clemson could very well be starting a true freshman of their own in Trevor Lawrence.
