ACC Teams in 2024

SMU

SMU made a quarterback change earlier in the season, which has paid off. Quarterback Kevin Jennings finished the year with 2,746 passing yards, 19 touchdowns, and seven interceptions. Also, he had 83 carries for 344 yards and four touchdowns. 

Clemson

Clemson has struggled against quality teams this season, losing to Georgia, Louisville, and South Carolina. Notably, the games against Louisville and South Carolina were home games. 

In their losses, Klubnik had one touchdown pass and two interceptions in total. 

ACC Championship History

The Seminoles won the ACC despite Travis's injury. This conference now has 17 teams, and the increased competition could help break the streak of Clemson and Florida State wins. Since 2010, Florida State and Clemson have won all but two ACC titles. The only exceptions were Pitt in 2021 and Virginia Tech in 2010. 

Clemson’s 9-4 record was their worst in the Dabo Swinney era. This was massive for the ACC, as Clemson has won seven of the last nine ACC conference titles.
