With Pitt, Virginia Tech, Louisville and Miami in November they need to find one win midseason to get on the "over" side of this number. Losses: Northwestern, at North Carolina, Georgia Tech, at Virginia, at Wake Forest, Pitt, at Virginia Tech, Louisville, MiamiĪnalysis: Best chances for an ACC win are Oct.Pick: Over 11.5 (+115) Duke Over/Under 3.5 wins If Clemson beats Georgia, it will take a substandard performance for the Tigers to finish with a loss in the regular season. If Clemson loses to Georgia I think the Tigers refocus and run through the schedule to finish 11-1. The toughest spots later in the schedule are at NC State and at Pitt, but really any bet on an ACC loss is centered on Clemson, for whatever reason, not being performing to its potential. Georgia, but if they do it's very much in the realm of possibility that they could slip up later in the year. Georgia, South Carolina State, Georgia Tech, at NC State, Boston College, at Syracuse, at Pitt, Florida State, at Louisville, UConn, Wake Forest, at South CarolinaĪnalysis: I'm picking the Tigers to win the opener vs. If you want to know how Boston College can turn this projected 6-6 into 7-5 or even 8-4, it has to start months before those key division games with a win against Missouri on Sept. Luckily for the Eagles, both of those games are at home but while they will carry the home field advantage I'm still going with a split. Losses: Missouri, at Clemson, NC State, at Louisville, Virginia Tech, Wake ForestĪnalysis: When I rank and rate the ACC, Boston College falls in the same tier as Florida State and Wake Forest.Wins: Colgate, at UMass, at Temple, at Syracuse, at Georgia Tech, Florida State.

So check out the breakdown for each team in the ACC below, complete with our game-by-game predictions and analysis that includes where the season could turn out for the better (or worse) in ways that could effect the final record. In showing our work we can't appease the entire ACC with 14 "overs" because there has to be consistency in the results of conference play. But this is going a little deeper than your standard over-under prediction, because we're not only trying to predict the regular-season record but even which games will be wins and which will be losses.

William Hill Sportsbook has set the number for every team in the country, and today we're focusing on the ACC. Soon we'll be hearing from coaches and players at media days and in about a month fall camps will open across the country, but for now we're all breaking down home/away splits, where the bye week falls in the schedule and making our predictions as to what will happen in the fall. We are still more than two months from Week 1, but the release of win totals is the true beginning of the preseason in college football.
