For the 2nd consecutive season, Alabama won't just begin its schedule in Atlanta against an Atlantic Coast Conference team.
It will do so against the ACC favorite.
ACC media voted Virginia Tech as an overwhelming pick to win a 2nd-consecutive league title during the conference's kickoff event. (Sound familiar, anyone?) Of 87 votes cast, 69 projected Virginia Tech to win the ACC title game.
Far more surprising, however, was that Hokies coach Frank Beamer welcomed the bulls-eye, unlike most coaches who try to downplay such fanfare.
'That's not ho-hum. I appreciate it,' Beamer said. 'People talk about high expectations, but I think high expectations are great as long as you don't forget what got you those high expectations" The SEC Rocks!
