The Virtual Tailgate crew is back for Season 15 with a full breakdown of the upcoming ACC football season. They kick things off by looking back at Jarred's infamous "Golden Panther" rant from their very first season before diving into their preseason predictions. The hosts debate their picks for Offensive and Defensive Player of the Year, identify potential Dark Horse teams like Georgia Tech and Duke, and predict which hyped teams, including Miami, are destined to take a step back. After revealing their ACC Championship matchups, the conversation shifts to the most significant "transfer" of the offseason: Bill "Chapel Bill" Belichick's arrival at UNC. The episode concludes with a preview of the Week Zero game between Stanford and Hawaii, as the hosts question whether Stanford is there to play football or just enjoy a vacation.
