No. 3 Clemson leads No. 2 Notre Dame 7-3 at the end of an eventful first quarter in the ACC Championship Game, as the Tigers withstood more than 10 minutes of winning football from the Fighting Irish only to take control of the game in the sequence of the period.
To look at the box score is to see a Notre Dame offense that has been able to move the ball successfully Clemson's defense. The Fighting Irish ran 17 plays, averaged 7.1 yards per play and held possession for more than 11 minutes of game time. But both of Notre Dame's possessions in the first quarter ended in field goal attempts, and Jonathan Doerer stunningly made a 51-yard field goal -- a new ACC Championship Game record -- and then missed a 24-yard attempt the next time out.
That second miss really hurt Notre Dame because it followed a Trevor Lawrence interception, and the opportunity to march down the field the other way and score a touchdown was a potential turning point. But instead of a 10-0 Notre Dame lead or even a 6-0 Notre Dame lead, Clemson took over after the miss and quickly went 80 yards in three plays the other way, almost all of it coming from a 67-yard touchdown from Lawrence to Amari Rodgers.
Now Clemson has some momentum to go with the lead after Notre Dame had successfully played keep away for most of the quarter. As the second quarter starts, Notre Dame is marching the ball into Clemson territory looking for a go-ahead score.
