1. ACC-Big 12 Challenge

This certainly makes sense to me.

The Big 12 only has 10 member institutions, so the conference wouldn’t be able to give every single ACC team a non-conference game and it’s not likely that the Big 12 would want to really do the challenge considering that they’d have to agree to be the away team in every single game.

That being said, it’s still a dream worth exploring.

Clemson could add Texas, Oklahoma, Oklahoma State or West Virginia to the schedule and instantly give themselves a bolster. Can you imagine the amount of press and spotlight that would be on a game between the Tigers and Texas or Oklahoma in Death Valley? It certainly would be fun.

Next. Losing two rivalry games in 2020 is ridiculous. dark

It will be interesting to see how this 2020 Clemson football season plays out in the grand scheme of things, but these are some options for the Tigers as they look to add a non-conference match-up.
