ACC Showdown Shocker: Which Dark Horse Could Topple Miami and Clemson This Season?
Only a few of the 17 programs can be safely written off before the year starts. If you enjoy variance, you’ll like this version of the ACC.
That’s my take, though the Opta supercomputer might have a different outlook.
It calculates its projections with the help of TRACR (Team Rating Adjusted for Conference and Roster), which combines play data from the prior season with adjustments for recruiting class rankings, transfer portal additions, and other offseason roster turnover.
The Opta supercomputer also accounts for each team’s strength of schedule (both last year and this year) and then reaches a projected record for 2025. It’s important to note that because of differences in strength of schedule, a team can be No. 1 in the TRACR rankings but not projected to finish with the best record in the league.
