The ACC’s Saturday, Sept. 26, slate lists 10 games involving conference teams, including Boston College’s conference opener against 3-0 Virginia Tech. The preview also highlights Wake Forest-Louisville and Georgia Tech-Stanford; ESPN lists Georgia Tech as favored.
Wake Forest lost 33-20 to Miami last week and managed just 22 rushing yards on 16 carries; the preview expects Louisville to win comfortably. Boston College has won two straight, but the article says it must force turnovers and build on its recent running game to challenge the Hokies.
Georgia Tech recorded its first win last week, while Stanford is coming off a 35-7 defeat to Duke. The preview identifies Yellow Jackets quarterback Alberto Mendoza, who is coming off a strong performance, as a player to watch.
