No. 3 Clemson at No. 23 Virginia Tech
8 P.M. SATURDAY, ORLANDO, FLORIDA
Favorite: Clemson by 10
Records: Clemson 11-1, 7-1 ACC Atlantic; Virginia Tech 9-3, 6-2 ACC Coastal
Last meeting: Clemson won 38-17 in 2012 in Clemson. The Tigers lead the series 20-12-1.
The skinny: Clemson quarterback Deshaun Watson couldn’t look any better heading into the ACC championship game, especially after tying his career high for touchdown passes with six in a 56-7 win over South Carolina. In hindsight, the Tigers’ loss to Pittsburgh appears to be a blessing because it catalyzed the team.
