When The Associated Press released its preseason Top 25, nobody did a double take when Clemson came in at No. 2 and Florida State ranked No. 4.
Yet that made history for the ACC. In 63 years as a conference, this marks the first time the league has ever had two teams ranked in the AP preseason top 5. For those crowing about the dominance of other conferences, the ACC led the way with multiple teams in the top 4.
The top 4, as we all know, end up making the College Football Playoff.
