Even if Notre Dame only joined the ACC for one year, the marriage proved to be a ratings bonanza for the conference and Notre Dame in the ACC Championship Game where the Irish faced perennial national power Clemson.
It was the only conference championship not to decline in the ratings in 2020.
Collge Football conference title game viewership per @AustinKarp:
•Alabama-Florida averaged 8.92 million viewers on CBS, the least-watched SEC title game since 2006.
•Fox averaged 8.03 million viewers for Ohio State-Northwestern, lowest since 2014.

What bucked the trend? Clemson-Notre Dame on ABC averaged 10.18 million viewers (TV+digital), best ACC Football Championship audience since the event began in 2005.
