2014-15 College Football Round-Up: ACC Conference

The 2014-15 College Football Round-Up here at the Ultimate Football Blog continues with a look at the ACC. It was kind of a down-year for the ACC this year. Outside of Florida State (a great team that was getting hammered all-year by pundits), they really had no elite teams as some of the biggest powers in the conference (Virginia Tech, Miami, etc.) continue to be down. Either way, I have faith that the ACC will continue to grow. Georgia Tech seems like they may have some staying power as a good team, Louisville will continue to get better, FSU and Clemson will still be there, and once Virginia Tech and Miami get their head out of their asses, the ACC could potentially position itself as one of the top conferences in the college game. Until then, let's take a look back at the year that was in the ACC.......
