Clemson vs. Notre Dame prediction: Can the Irish pull off the upset?

No Dexter? No problem.

No. 2 Clemson will take the field for Saturday’s Cotton Bowl College Football Playoff Semifinal against Notre Dame without talented defensive tackle Dexter Lawrence, and while Lawrence’s absence will be felt, it won’t affect the outcome.
