2024's key ACC football storylines on and off the field with Stewart Mandel of The Athletic

Stewart Mandel of The Athletic joins Brent Axe on the latest episode of Syracuse Sports.
Mandel gives his impressions of Syracuse hiring Fran Brown as its new head coach including the comparison of a successful recruiter who made the transition to head coach and is doing well now in the Power 4.
Mandel and Axe discuss the key 2024 storylines for ACC football, both on and off the field. Do Florida State and Clemson have a path out of the ACC?
Why is February 2025 such a key date that will forecast whether the ACC remains intact? Why should "old school" fans be rooting for Dabo Swinney?
How will the new 12-team playoff work and affect the college football schedule?
