College football's greatest teams: The best season from every ACC program
Posted Jul 15, 2018
UNC claimed ACC football championships in 1976 and 1980, but that ACC wasn't as tough as the league was in 1997. It took a few years to get going, but Mack Brown's Tar Heels were producing NFL talents regularly and in 1996 and 1997, finishing with double-digit wins and top-10 finishes. The 1997 team was ranked in the top 10 for the entire season and only lost once.
