Locked On Podcast Network — Thu, 01 Oct 2026 21:00:00 GMT

ACC football faces a new level of disrespect as undefeated programs Pitt and Virginia Tech prepare for a historic matchup—yet neither ranks in the AP Top 25. Is national bias holding the ACC back, or are preseason expectations overshadowing on-field results? Miami, Clemson, and Wake Forest all find themselves battling for respect, despite impressive coaching and standout performances from names like Darian Mensah, Tait Reynolds, and Gio Lopez.

The ACC Squad breaks down top storylines, including Miami vs. Clemson’s quarterback duel, Florida State’s must-win against Virginia, and how ACC coaches like Wake Forest’s Dave Clawson are overachieving with limited resources. Key conversations focus on strategic matchups in the trenches, quarterback development, and how rankings politics influence postseason hopes. Which ACC squad will silence the doubters and which program faces a season-defining weekend?

Who's the ACC's No. 2? Are the Clemson Tigers a REAL Threat or ACC Pretenders This Season?

Locked On Podcast Network — Tue, 29 Sep 2026 22:40:23 GMT

The Miami Hurricanes sit atop the ACC, but who will challenge them in Charlotte? Julian Council and Kenton Gibbs break down the evolving conference race, spotlighting Virginia’s surprise rise, fueled by a resurgent ground game and defense.

Locked On Podcast Network — Sun, 27 Sep 2026 22:55:06 GMT

Wake Forest stuns 16th-ranked Louisville with a gritty 30-27 road win, fueled by Gio Lopez’s poised play and a dominant performance in the trenches. Are the Demon Deacons quietly emerging as an ACC contender despite flying under the radar? Julian Council and Kenton Gibbs spotlight Carlos Hernandez’s explosive day, Wake Forest’s revitalized ground game, and a defense that notched 9 tackles for loss and 4 sacks. Key moments include Louisville’s costly penalties, blown coverages, and questions about Jeff Brohm’s ability to instill discipline in a talented Cardinals roster.

Clemson picks up a third consecutive victory, shutting down Cal with a suffocating defense and a resurgent secondary anchored by Ashton Hampton. Can Dabo Swinney’s Tigers build on this momentum against Miami? The show also covers Virginia Tech’s gritty win over Boston College in stormy conditions and Stanford’s comeback over Georgia Tech. Troubling trends for Brent Key’s Yellow Jackets and lingering quarterback concerns for Cal take center stage as the hosts assess the ACC’s shifting landscape.
