The ACC announced Wednesday the 42 student-athletes who will attend the 2023 ACC Football Kickoff, which is being held July 25-27 at The Westin Charlotte in Charlotte.

ACC Network will broadcast live with three days of TV coverage that will begin at 9 a.m. every day.

AFP will also be there, but we don’t have a TV channel of our own, so the best we can do is write and post some videos online, which we’ll do.
