CHARLOTTE — It took 12 seasons, but Miami may finally be in position to hold up its end of the bargain in delivering the ACC Championship Game everyone thought would become tradition.
The Hurricanes hype is real for a team that’s never claimed the Costal Division, but checks (nearly) all the boxes.
“People might think it’s a dream because it’s never happened, but we don’t think it’s a dream,” coach Mark Richt said during Friday’s second day of the ACC Kickoff.
In Year 2, Richt has an elite defensive line led by linebackers Shaq Quarterman, Michael Pinckney and Zach McCloud, a 1,000-yard rusher in Mark Walton and an All-American-caliber wide receiver with Ahmmon Richards.
