ACC Championship Game Preview, Prediction
Not only will Saturday's Notre Dame-Clemson game decide this year's ACC champion, but it also has huge implications for the College Football Playoff. One of these teams will reach the CFP. There's even a strong chance that both will—but that's not a guarantee.
The playoff committee could have a tough decision to make, but it won't be when it comes to Notre Dame. Even if the Fighting Irish lose, they beat Clemson earlier in the season (a 47-40 victory in double overtime Nov. 7), and they enter this matchup at 10-0. It's unlikely a loss in the ACC Championship Game would bump Notre Dame out of the top four spots.
