ACC Football 2019 All-Conference Team

Clemson is the overwhelming favorite to win the ACC in 2019, and coach Dabo Swinney's team leads the way on Athlon's 2019 All-ACC squad with 14 selections. The

We’re second overall with 11 selections (Clemson has 14).

Might just be my Orange goggles but I think Taj and Trill are getting a little overlooked here

 

[djorange1989]

it is amazing, when Dino took over you could argue convincingly that only Kansas had less talent than we did in the entire Power 5 and now look at us.

Oh man the disrespect to Moe Neal

No ur 100 percent correct. Bad choices by selection. They will end up near top with out a doubt.

Funny Hassan Hall is third team behind Sean Riley. Hassan decommitted from Cuse late in the recruiting process. I think he committed to UL, Cuse and UL in that order.

Confident several of our young speedsters will replace Sean without a hitch in 2020.

DeVito will end up 2nd team.

The biggest thing I see on that list is that Clemson doesn't dominate the DL selections.

Athlon probably doesn't know much about our guys since they were backups. Clemson will still get some guys on the All ACC DL but you won't see what you saw last year as far as representation in my opinion.

I think CF plays himself into the first three rounds this year.

God bless Dino Babers. What a freaking turnaround. Perception is changing.

Next December is a little bit of a wait, eh?

So if you go by that, in a way they're saying we have the best starting d-line in the ACC.

I hope at the end of the season we see a few more s's in the o-line section.

They're not in the ACC for football.

 

[Trueblue25]

Good for Miami, 3 more projected all acc players than they’ll have wins

Hah... Only playing 5 ACC games, this year. Indeed, if they were a full member it would change all of these numbers.

No ND players on this preseason all American list. 4 Clemson. 2 Syracuse

Easily overlooked is how SU dominates special teams on this list. Historically having great special teams units has been absolutely critical to SU being a top 25 program. So great to see how quickly Dino improved that area.

Yes. I think special teams is an area where major strides in a program can be made relatively easily. You can move to the top of the conference in special teams with an undersized return guy with speed and heart, a promising walk on placekicker, an undersized walk on long snapper or two and the contributions of some well coached athletic backup players.

This was done with no HS All Americans.

It is a relatively quick and relatively easy way to differentiate yourself from a lot of the other schools in your conference.

In my humble opinion, the Syracuse selections are a testament to how well the Syracuse University Football Staff, the Entire Staff has been able to recognize what they are looking for and then finely condition it and most importantly coach the players and improve their skill set. Syracuse University's Football Staff is vastly underrated. If Coach Babers stays for the long haul, this will be one hell of a stretch in program history and Syracuse University Football will be a big factor in major college football. My only wish is that Dave Boller would come back. Go Orange!!!!!!
