On Wednesday, former Clemson and All-ACC offensive lineman Eric Mac Lain, who hosts the Gramlich and Mac Lain podcast with Kelly Gramlich, posted a graphic on Twitter showing who their summer guests think will win the ACC in 2022.
Only one of Mac Lain and Gramlich’s guests — ESPN’s Jason Fitz — picked Clemson to win the ACC Championship this season, while ACC Network host Jordan Cornette, ACCN reporter Katie George and Nicole Auerbach of The Athletic all picked NC State to win the Atlantic and the conference championship.
Cornette and George picked NC State to beat Miami in the ACC Championship Game, while Auerbach picked the Wolfpack to beat defending ACC champion Pittsburgh in the conference title game.
