Everyone is talking about Clemson and Florida State. Is there a team that could surprise? ESPN’s Roddy Jones joined Ovies and Giglio to argue NC State might be that team.

Meanwhile, ESPN’s Andrea Adelson explains to The OG how the Seminoles weren’t a fluke last season and how they’re the true favorites to win the conference.

Speaking of backing up last season, Duke coach Mike Elko joined Ovies and Giglio to talk about how expectations for the Blue Devils shouldn’t change just because their schedule is considered difficult.
