Florida State and Miami were aligned on opposite sides of the ACC when the league split into divisions more than a decade ago. The hope, it seemed at the time, was the the two college football powerhouse rivals would have a chance to meet for the ACC Championship Game.

Last week at the ACC Football Kickoff, the Hurricanes, who are redefining swagger under Mark Richt, were picked as heavy favorites to win the ACC Coastal with more than double the first-place votes given to Virginia Tech, the reigning division champs.

Florida State was picked to win the ACC over Clemson, the defending national champions, and Louisville quarterback Lamar Jackson was chosen as the ACC's preseason Player of the Year after winning that award -- and the Heisman Trophy -- in the 2016 postseason.
