2019 Week 1 Preview w/ Lauren Brownlow: ACC Network Launch, CRUCIAL Conference Matchups, Duke & Louisville Getting Wrecked, Picks of the Week are BACK, MORE! - a podcast by Basketball Conference

After the appetizer that was the Miami game in Week Zero, ACC Football is back at long last with a HUGE Week One slate!

--The defending National Champion Clemson Tigers kick off the weekend Thursday night, hosting the first-ever game on the ACC Network against Joey's Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets!

--Wake Forest plays host to a low-key DANGEROUS Utah State team on Friday night in a game that the Steamin' Deacons really need to win to get their season started on the right foot.

--Saturday features a pair of subtly CRUCIAL games to the outcome of the ACC, as Virginia Tech travels to Boston College and Virginia travels to Pittsburgh -- two games that will inevitably set the tone for the Coastal Division race and the conference as a whole.

--Duke joins Georgia Tech as 35-point underdogs (they're playing against reigning National Runners-Up Alabama), and Louisville is probably getting the business end of a game against Notre Dame.

All of that, plus the start of the Mack Brown era at UNC, a fascinating matchup of Florida State and Boise State, Joey and Mike make their inaugural 2019 Picks of the Week, and MORE!
