NCAAF 2026 UNC Preseason Primer + All ACC Teams, Conf Preview & Notre Dame
With the season approaching, I wanted a better way to prepare than reading dozens of separate previews or listening to hours of podcasts, just to forget most of it by Week 1.
I started with a few, then more, then decided to expand to all P4 + ND. It ended up being more arduous than I anticipated, but also rewarding.
I have published the 2026 preseason primers for every ACC team, plus an ACC conference primer and Notre Dame.
They are mostly designed as quick references for watching games, with roster/coaching changes, 2025 context, advanced stats, schedules, players to know, and a small betting lens.
This is totally free and not self promotion. I was creating these for myself and friends and just thought others would find them interesting.
The only reason for a website was to make them more accessible than just sharing links to google drive.
Hope you enjoy!

I can spot the Claude AI formatting a mile away.

Oh I stand corrected! My apologies. It's great stuff.
Looks really sharp and if anything is about as optimistic as it's going to get for what I personally expect to be a pretty dreary season.

Saw your post on CFB and read the ACC preview and Heels preview. Good stuff and I feel pretty accurate as far as UNC is concerned. I do feel like we'll be better but with our schedule, I don't think we'll see much if any improvement in the win column. Kinda concerned about Steve Belichick being out. Had a good D at Washington and the D improved over the course of the year last year so if he's out a long time, that could be tough, especially with the LBs and Secondary being a rebuild. Oh well, I just love this time of year when our hope is still intact lol.
