Notre Dame is looking for its 1st ACC football title but Clemson is the favorite in their rematch

It’s a rematch for the ACC title — and a potential College Football Playoff matchup — when No. 2 Notre Dame plays No. 4 Clemson in the conference championship game.

Plenty. Clemson is seeking its sixth straight ACC Championship under coach Dabo Swinney, while Notre Dame, an independent for over a century until joining the league temporarily during this pandemic-altered season, is looking for its first conference title ever. The winner is a lock for the College Football Playoff, which has never had a two-loss participant. Clemson’s only loss this season was a 47-40 double-overtime thriller at Notre Dame.
