Reporting on the impact of the coronavirus on the sports world

One of the most anticipated games of the season and now the rematch between No.. 2 Notre Dame and No.. 3 Clemson has all the college football playoff implications you could hope for in a top five matchup over the weekend of the conference championship. It’s a series for firsts: the first top 5 matchup in the history of the ACC Championship Game, the first appearance of a conference title game for Notre Dame. Clemson is the first Power Five team to play six consecutive league titles. There is also potential for the ACC to get two teams into the College Football Playoffs for the first time.

The headline is the return of Trevor Lawrence, who is 33-1 as Clemson’s starting quarterback and missed the 46:40 loss to Notre Dame. Lawrence has Tigers fans hoping he’ll make another dominant performance like when he beat the Fighting Irish in the CFP semi-finals as a freshman in 2018. Notre Dame’s Ian Book is also the most successful QB in its program’s history. Notre Dame relied mostly on the floor game early in the season, but Book caught fire and played some of the best football games of his career. Book asserts itself against a future No.. 1 overall selection could provide the spark the Irish need to take an historic win.

Clemson wins the throw and moves it so Ian Book and the Offensive Fighting Irish get the ball first

A little more than 10 minutes until kick-off. Notre Dame as the senior team will be in their home uniforms and Clemson in the street white. It is the most successful quarterback in Clemson history against the most successful quarterback in Notre Dame history. It is the first top 5 matchup in the ACC Championship Game. let us do this.

SCRATCH THAT – just scanned the availability report. no Xavier Thomas today for Clemson. The starting DE is a huge loss and that will bring a lot to the plate of true newcomer Myles Murphy

While we’re counting to kick-off, it was nice not to have any current updates on staff or availability. With Trevor Lawrence (and several other key Clemson players) absent from the first meeting, it looks like both top 4 teams will be fighting the rematch at full strength. exactly the way you like it, with the playoff bid on the line

There is only one way to describe the Notre Dame season: 𝐡𝐢𝐬𝐭𝐨𝐫𝐢𝐜 Let’s look back at how we got here, where @NDFootball is attending a conference and playing for the ACC Championship. ☘️ # TheHuddle pic. Twitter. com / S6LzK3oYMn
