The first edition of the ACC-SEC Challenge is in the books, but the question now remains: how did it affect its participants?

The challenge was created to replace both the Big 12-SEC Challenge and the ACC-Big Ten Challenge.

With all SEC schools having an ACC counterpart, the conferences finished an even 7-7 against each other.
