Back to EpisodesTHREAT?: Can Miami Hurricanes DOMINATE the ACC or Will SMU and Kevin Jennings UPSET Conference Favorites?
Description
Miami Hurricanes headline the ACC football power rankings, but is their dominance guaranteed? Alex Donno, Kenton Gibbs, and Kalia Butler dissect Miami’s roster strengths, key losses, and the emergence of contenders like SMU—whose stability at quarterback and coaching could pose the biggest threat. The crew questions whether Miami can break their historic streak of ACC underachievement and if teams like Virginia and Louisville might disrupt the narrative.
The conversation shifts to updated ESPN and CBS Sports bracketology, spotlighting Duke, Virginia, Louisville, North Carolina, and Clemson as March Madness locks, while NC State, SMU, and Miami remain on the bubble. Insights include Florida State’s decline, Clemson’s fading mystique, and Cal’s transfer portal success under Tosh Lapoy. Can the ACC land eight or nine teams in the tournament? Join for essential analysis of football upsets, basketball seeding battles, and implications for each team’s postseason push.
