The ACC experienced a fairly average season, but they’ve still managed to get two teams into the BCS and a total of eight teams into bowl games. Virginia Tech has made it to the Sugar Bowl somewhat controversially after two losses to Clemson. That Clemson team is also in the BCS after winning the ACC Championship Game and will face West Virginia in the Orange Bowl.
