Which team wins the 2008 ACC?
NOTE - There will be ONLY one payout. The team that gets the conference's automatic bid for winning the CCG will be the winner.

I will go with the son of Bowden because even though they always seem to lose a couple games that they shouldn't I believe this team is too talented for them to screw it up.

FSU's too high, Miami's too high, Wake's too low.
Florida State doesn't have a single upperclassman on the offensive line. Thanks to academic scandal, injury, and other all-around asshattery, they've managed to lose every single junior and senior on that line. They've had guys get kicked out, clearing the way for a new projected starter only to lose him too. They've got some talent elsewhere, and one really really good sophomore lineman, but they're not winning the ACC with a patchwork line like that.
And Miami just doesn't have the talent. They've got some pretty-OK players spread out around the field and not many depth issues, but when the preseason all-ACC team was named, there wasn't a single Miami player on it.
Clemson is a flawed team but part of the reason they're so heavily favored to win the ACC is because everyone else is far worse.
