Introduction
Over the past 14 college football seasons, Clemson has played a role in every ACC championship—either by winning the title themselves or by being the team that the eventual champion had to defeat during the regular season. As it stands, oddsmakers view Clemson as the clear frontrunner for the 2025 ACC title, with Miami as the next closest contender. Will the trend of the past 14 seasons continue, or will a team with no ties to Clemson finally rise to claim the ACC crown?

Closing Thoughts
As evidenced above, Clemson is once again the clear frontrunner for the ACC title. However, with conference realignment shaking things up, SMU adds a new wrinkle to the race and could be a legitimate disruptor in their first year in the conference. Another intriguing team at +1200 is Georgia Tech, which will return quarterback Haynes King for his third season with the program. Programs like Florida State and North Carolina could also become contenders if they’re able to find consistency within their rosters. One thing is certain—it will be fascinating to see how the ACC race unfolds this college football season.
