ACC football: Early conference championship odds released for 2024 season

The ACC joined the expansion movement — for now — with the upcoming addition of three new members for 2024 — California, SMU and Stanford. Geography is thrown on the window with those newcomers as cross-country road trips become a regular. How will that affect the conference title race in 2024? Probably not much in Year 1 with Clemson, Florida State and Miami expected to be top contenders for the ACC and a spot in the expanded College Football Playoff. 

The Seminoles have dominated the conference as of late with 12-straight wins against ACC opponents dating back to the 2022 season. The reigning conference champions lose a lot of key players from the 2023 squad, but head coach Mike Norvell is a proven developer and acquirer of talent. Is this the year Dabo Swinney finally gets Clemson back into the national championship conversation? And can Mario Cristobal take a big step with the Hurricanes?

The 2024 ACC Championship Game returns to Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina, on Dec. 7.
