The 2022 ACC Football Championship Game is set with the Clemson Tigers facing the North Carolina Tar Heels. The game will be played on Saturday, Dec. 3 at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, N.C. (8pm ET, ABC).

Clemson (9-1, 7-0 ACC) clinched the Atlantic Division title by virtue of Pittsburgh’s defeat of Syracuse last Saturday. The Tigers will be appearing in their seventh ACC title contest in eight seasons, having seen a streak of six in a row go by the wayside during the 2021-22 campaign.

North Carolina (9-1, 6-0 ACC) won the Coastal Division Saturday, earning the crown with a dramatic 36-34 result over Wake Forest. The Tar Heels will secure a rematch of the 2015 ACC title tilt, which Clemson claimed, 45-37. That contest marked the only other appearance in the game for Mack Brown’s troops.

The sides last squared off in September of 2019 where the Tigers squeaked out a 21-20 decision in Kenan Memorial Stadium in Chapel Hill. Clemson leads the overall series 37-18-1.
