I'd like to welcome you to our ACC preview.

Oh, boy.

The James Anthony Costa cash the ticket, ACC preview.

You are dressed as the offensive coordinator of Wake Forest today with the short-sleeve Cuset.

The ACC has always been a bit of a puzzling league.

It's even more so now.

And I do feel like this is going to be you and I doing karate in the garage because I think we don't like the same team. We love the same team. And that's rare. So let's retitle this episode, the ACC preview, our love letter to Clemson. Yes. Last year, they lost that opener to Georgia. And we took great pleasure in shitting on Davosweeney. You won't use the portal. You fucking idiot.

Here's the thing. They actually have continuity this year, Mike, because they use the portal.

A little bit, but a lot of these dudes come back. They return 16 players. It's the second most of any team in college football.

So as you guys know with these previews, we do favorites, we do

sleepers, we do the mushy middle, and we do the bottom feeders. The favorite category is one

team and one team only. It's Davosweeney's Clemson Tigers. They have continuity at a time where

it doesn't exist in college football because the portal wreaks havoc. They have stability, a Heisman trophy candidate at

quarterback who's coming off a great junior season. Receivers, plural, back with a little bit of

that lead dog in him. Antonio Williams is not the Andre Hopkins, but he is back to getting to that

skill set at the outside for this offense, which is going to be big. The D-Line talent, remember they used to be a factory, Mike? They got two guys projected to go in the top ten of the NFL draft in Parker and Woods. They will be in the playoff. They do have the talent to win it all, and they have a coach who's done it twice. I love him in the ACC, and I love them to win it all. Look, returning quarterback is huge. Klubnik took a major step forward, so that's a plus one. You and I agree. I mean, six, seven of these top ten teams, they don't have a returning quarterback, major edge to Clemson. Two, everything you said about continuity is true, but they did go to the portal. And you know what they boosted? The thing that has really fallen off a cliff the last few years, the wide receivers. Then I got this Tristan Smith kid, 6-5-220, kind of a Megatron-type player from Southeast Missouri State. Yep. They got this kid's Stilato. Look, they got three really nice wide receivers. What was clemson pumping out for a few years in

row big time wide receivers t higgins hunter renfro was big time for a while i mentioned

the andre hopkins they had they got away from it so now quarterback big receivers passing game

they're starting to feel like vintage clemson it's the perfect middle ground of I want to recruit high school, retain and develop,

but then sprinkle in what you need from the portal.
