GREENSBORO, N.C. (AP) - Heisman Trophy winner Lamar Jackson of Louisville and five players from reigning national champion Clemson headline the preseason all-Atlantic Coast Conference team.
The ACC on Wednesday announced the team following a vote of 167 media members who attended last week’s media days in Charlotte.
The Tigers were represented by three offensive players - receiver Deon Cain and linemen Mitch Hyatt and Tyrone Crowder - plus defensive linemen Dexter Lawrence and Christian Wilkins.
