ACC releases additional kickoff times for 2016 football season

The ACC released several more kickoff times, including their complete schedule for the first three weeks of the 2016 football season.

In less than four months, the 2016 college football season will kickoff and the ACC will be front and center with some of the most anticipated games of the season. The ACC is likely to start the season with two teams (the Clemson Tigers and the Florida State Seminoles) ranked in the top five nationally.
