ACC Atlantic Division

Sean Higgs

1. Florida State- Life after Bowden. HC Jimbo Fisher finally takes over the reigns after 3 years in the wings. The defense will be better than last years unit that gave up over 425 yards per game. The offense led by QB Christian Ponder will put up points. September 11th at Oklahoma will show the critics what both teams have lined up for the year. Can’t Miss Trend …. Florida State is just 1-8 ATS last 9 vs NC State

2. Clemson Tigers - HC Dabo Sweeney loses the explosive CJ Spiller, but Andre Ellington and Jamie Harper should provide some relief in the rushing attack. QB situation leaves a little to be desired. But the defense is a solid bunch with a playmaker in safety DeAndrea McDaniel who picked off 8 passes last year. Can’t Miss Trend…. Clemson is 2-8 ATS last 10 vs Maryland

3. Boston College – This team finished 8-5 last year and could be better. HC Frank Spaziani has a talented bunch on both sides of the ball. This team is defined by its defense. Look for them to jump out fast with games vs Weber State and Kent State before taking on Va Tech September 25th. Can’t Miss Trend.. Boston College is 1-7 ATS in its last 8 road games

4. Maryland Terps – The Terps off a terrible 2-10 season. HC Ralph Friedgen is on a bit of a hot seat. The offensive line gets 3 starters back and 9 of its top 10 receivers. They are healthy in the backfield. Terps also have a favorable schedule. They only get Miami out of the Coastal Division and miss Va Tech, North Carolina and Georgia Tech. With a year under DC Don Brown’s plays under their belt, the defensive should also improve. Can’t Miss Trend … 8 of last 9 vs Clemson have gone UNDER the total

5. NC State – Last year was not the way HC Tom O’Brien wanted things to go. But with a talented bunch of WRs around QB Russell Wilson, things should improve. The defense can’t be any worse then last years bunch that allowed 31ppg. Can’t Miss Trend… NC State has gone OVER in 5 straight at home

6. Wake Forest- With the loss of 4 year starting QB Riley Skinner, Wake is clearly rebuilding this season. HC Jim Grobe will rely more on the run in his Spread attack breaking in a new QB. The defense which gave up 164ypg on the ground will be as bad as the DL is young. Can’t Miss Trend… Wake is 1-5 ATS last 6 home games vs Duke
