ACC vs. Nation

Posted Jul 15, 2007

For the second straight season, ACC teams will begin play with very few players of national distinction in the skill positions. The ACC's potential for big-play production is down from last season, when Georgia Tech wide receiver Calvin Johnson was voted to The Associated Press All-America first team and finished 10th in the Heisman Trophy voting. If there's a first-team All-America skill-position player on the 12 ACC rosters for 2007, he's well hidden. (Raleigh News & Observer)
