Who's in ACC championship game? Virginia clinches after Week 14 win

Our Summary
Virginia has secured a spot in the ACC championship game following a decisive 27-7 victory over Virginia Tech, marking a significant achievement for head coach Tony Elliott. The Cavaliers, ranked No. 17, ended their regular season with a 10-2 overall record and 7-1 in conference play. This victory not only ensures their presence in the ACC title game but also keeps their College Football Playoff hopes alive.
The opponent for Virginia in the ACC championship game remains undetermined, pending the outcome of the Southern Methodist (SMU) game against California. SMU, like Virginia, is in a "win-and-in" scenario. Should SMU lose, Duke would advance to the championship game due to their victory over Wake Forest.
The ACC championship game is set to take place on Saturday, Dec. 6, at 8 p.m. ET at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte, North Carolina. The game will be broadcast nationally on ABC, with streaming available via Fubo,
