The ACC partially redeemed itself in Week 2 after a slow start in out-of-conference games with Wake Forest, Duke, and Boston College wins coming against the Big Ten. The Preferred Walk-Ons Podcast discusses the conference's national perception and analyzes opportunities for statement victories during the Week 3 slate. That includes the Virginia neutral site game in Charlotte against West Virginia as well as NC State-Vanderbilt, Virginia Tech-Maryland, and Florida State-Alabama.

Dive in for a closer listen:

  • The ACC's 3-0 week against the Big Ten and what it means for conference prestige (0:00-9:00)
  • Picks and previews for every Week 3 ACC football game (9:00-55:09)
