The ACC is in jeopardy of seeing none of the conference’s teams advance to the College Football Playoff this year. While the ACC saw SMU and Clemson reach the playoff last year, they might have not have any teams vying for the national championship this time around.
With SMU losing to Cal on Saturday, 7–5 Duke will face No. 17 Virginia in the ACC championship game this weekend. If Duke wins, there’s a good chance that two Group of 5 conference champions will make the playoff instead of the ACC champion.
