ACC Championship 2015: TV, Live Stream Info and Projections for Clemson vs. UNC

The Clemson Tigers know the formula: win, and they're in. Does the same ring true for the North Carolina Tar Heels?

The ACC Championship Game is the toughest to call. Clemson hasn't faced a team with the kind of defense North Carolina possesses. The Tar Heels also haven't faced a quarterback like Deshaun Watson this year.

Flip a coin on this one. This is the game of the weekend. Here are all the details you need to know for Saturday's ACC title game.

Game Projections

So, here's what we know about the College Football Playoff situation.

1. Barring a drastic turn of events, the Oklahoma Sooners are a lock for the Final Four.
2. The winner of the Big Ten championship should be a lock.
3. The Alabama Crimson Tide should not lose to the Florida Gators, and therefore should be a lock.

That leaves all but one spot left.

There's still plenty of time for chaos to ensue. Of the top 10 teams in the CFP poll, seven are involved in a conference championship game or have already clinched their conference title.

Even though North Carolina is at No. 10, there's talk that the Tar Heels will jump all the way to No. 4 should they beat the Tigers. That means UNC would jump the Stanford Cardinal, who are in the Pac-12 title game, the Notre Dame Fighting Irish and the loser of Michigan State/Iowa. 

Yes, a win over Clemson would go a long way for the ACC. Should the Tigers lose, they may get knocked out of the Final Four, but that doesn't necessarily mean UNC will jump six spots. 

The Tar Heels' non-conference schedule consisted of a loss to three-win South Carolina, North Carolina A&T, Illinois and Delaware. The last eight games consisted of teams that combined to win 46 games, which is an average of 5.75 wins per team. This year, that's good to get a team eligible for a bowl game. That's also a below-.500 schedule.

That's the one thing that scares CFP committee chairman Jeff Long is taking into consideration, per George Schroeder of USA Today:

"It's never just one thing," Long said. "There's multiple things in there that have held North Carolina back. Their overall strength of schedule is not strong."

And if Clemson were to somehow lose on Saturday, there's a chance that they would not even fall out of the Final Four, as Stewart Mandel of Fox Sports pointed out:

Saturday's game against Clemson is only the second time this year UNC has faced a ranked opponent. The only other time was Oct. 29 against Pittsburgh. 

This is the first big test for North Carolina all year. It'll help that UNC has the unofficial home-field advantage, but that won't mean as much. Clemson has been the better football team all year long, with the best player in Watson. He's going to be the difference, and should put a stamp on his Heisman chances with a win over the Tar Heels. Even Clemson put together a Heisman resume for him.

The Tigers have yet to show a weakness. That's why they'll win on Saturday.
