  4. Clemson
  5. Virginia Tech
  6. Georgia Tech

  8. Cal
  9. Virginia

The Wolfpack had 4 players named to Lindy’s Preseason All-ACC Teams:

2nd Team

Quarterback – CJ Bailey (Junior)

All-Purpose – Duke Scott (Redshirt Sophomore)

3rd Team

Offensive Lineman – Teague Anderson (Redshirt Senior)

Defensive Back – Asaad Brown (Redshirt Sophomore)

Top Newcomer

Lindy’s listed Tulane EDGE Transfer Harvey Dyson as the Wolfpack’s top newcomer this upcoming season.

Here’s what they had to say about Dyson:

“He had eight sacks and 11.5 tackles for loss last year for Tulane, which reached the College Football Playoff. Now he’s back with a Power 4 conference team after earlier time at Texas Tech. His production, which is expected to include a knack for timely pass rushing, will be vital in a defense that has largely been overhauled from a season ago.”
