ACC Huddle host Taylor Tannebaum will be joined by analysts Jimbo Fisher – the 2013 national championship-winning head coach, former Clemson captain Eric Mac Lain and Virginia Tech Hall of Famer Eddie Royal.

Beginning in 2026, the ACC is moving to a nine-game conference scheduling model featuring nine league games and a minimum of 10 games annually against Power Four opponents.

The conference is coming off a successful 2025 season, finishing 9–5 in postseason play—tied for the most postseason wins in ACC history. The ACC also went 7–3 against fellow Power 4 conferences, including a perfect 4–0 mark versus the SEC, highlighted by Miami’s run to the CFP National Championship Game.
