Clemson found a way to get it done. In a battle of ACC undefeateds, the fifth-ranked Tigers found themselves trailing No. 14 Syracuse 21-10 at halftime. Nothing was going right for Clemson. The offense kept making mistakes and the defense gave up two long Syracuse touchdown drives. But things changed in the second half. Clemson shut out the Orange in the final two quarters and stormed back to win 27-21. With the win, Clemson improved to 8-0 on the year, took sole possession of first place in… Source link

With one Saturday left until conference championship weekend, it’s come down to this: Ohio State walloped Michigan State, Michigan did the same to Maryland and the two will face off in seven days to decide who wins the Big Ten East and plays for a spot in the College Football Playoff. Alabama eventually pulled away from Arkansas to secure the SEC West and lock down a spot against Georgia, where the question will become whether the conference will send one or two teams into the… Source link

If the largely uncompetitive College Football Playoff semifinal games on Friday could be distilled to two distinct moments, they’d be easy to select. No. 1 Alabama’s systemic dispatching of No. 4 Notre Dame will long be remembered for tailback Najee Harris leaping over Notre Dame cornerback Nick McCloud, an athletic marvel that could well be the frozen moment which this Alabama season is remembered. In No. 3 Ohio State’s 49-28 blowout of No. 2 Clemson later on Friday, the indelible image… Source link

The Clemson and Notre Dame sequel wasn’t nearly as dramatic as the original. The No. 3 Tigers (10-1) locked in a spot in the College Football Playoff with a dominating 34-10 win over the No. 2 Fighting Irish in the ACC championship game. Star Clemson QB and presumptive No. 1 2021 NFL draft pick Trevor Lawrence accounted for three touchdowns as the Tigers’ defense clamped down on a Notre Dame offense that gave it fits in November. Notre Dame (10-1) beat Clemson 47-40 in double-overtime in… Source link

The game between No. 4 Clemson and Florida State has been postponed. The ACC announced the news on Saturday morning, a mere three hours before the game was scheduled to kick off at noon ET. The ACC said the status of the game changed early Saturday after a conference call “at which time both teams’ medical personnel were unable to mutually agree on moving forward with the game.” ACC protocols require teams to be tested for the coronavirus the day before the game, so both Florida State… Source link

No. 4 Notre Dame’s double-overtime victory over No. 1 Clemson will be remembered as a game of historical consequence that may have few consequences. It was steeped in history, but could be recast in just a few months. It had the requisite historical touchstones, officiating controversies (and delays) and a scintillating performance by a star — freshman quarterback D.J. Uiagalelei — that we’ll be gazing at for many more autumns. Make no mistake, Notre Dame outlasting Clemson, 47-40, in… Source link
