Clemson dominated its ACC competition on the field this season on its way to another Atlantic Division title. The Tigers outscored its eight conference opponents by an average score of 46.3-10.5. On Tuesday, Clemson’s best players were rewarded with recognition on the All-ACC teams. In all, 16 Tigers were named to the First, Second or Third Teams.
Running back Travis Etienne led the balloting after rushing for 1,386 yards and setting the conference record for career touchdowns with 57. Etienne was also a First Team selection in 2018. Etienne’s teammate, linebacker Isaiah Simmons, led all defensive players in balloting. Simmons and Etienne were joined on the First Team by quarterback Trevor Lawrence, wide receiver Tee Higgins, tackle Tremayne Anchrum, guard John Simpson, cornerback A.J. Terrell and safety Tanner Muse.
A voting panel of 46 media members and the league’s 14 head coaches cast ballots for the 2019 All-ACC Football Teams, with three points awarded for each first-team vote, two points for each second-team vote and one point for each third-team selection.
