Twitter reacts to Clemson's dominating win over Notre Dame |
Clemson got their revenge on Saturday with a convincing 34-10 win against Notre Dame in the 2020 ACC title game.
The victory gave Clemson their sixth straight ACC title in a row which is extremely impressive. With the win, it was also the fourth straight Clemson senior class with 50 wins in four years (50-4). Clemson won the last four ACC titles by a combined score of 176-40. Twitter was abuzz with Clemson's impressive performance in the win and the college football playoff implications regarding both the Tigers and the Fighting Irish. Check out all the social media reaction below: Clemson takes the ACC crown in DOMINANT fashion ?? pic.twitter.com/PgGnnGHyJS Trevor Lawrence after Clemson's loss to Notre Dame without him: pic.twitter.com/0ItZzPQInS Regardless of your rooting interest, I think you have to credit Notre Dame’s players having the courage to stand behind their coach’s comments and opting out of the playoff. No amount of different playoff formats change the fact that Bama and Clemson are the best teams in the country. And they will meet again in the title game. And it’s up to the rest of college football to catch them Irish are going to be right where they always are as an independent: hoping their schedule is good enough without a conference title. Texas A&M watching Clemson inflict pain on Notre Dame. pic.twitter.com/qCz2VVr2kx If #Cincinnati handles Tulsa convincingly tonight, let them in the damn #CFBPlayoff btw, let Clemson and Bama play next week and call it a day. let’s not waste time BS’ing through a playoff this year This is astounding from @ESPNStatsInfo ... If the 28-point lead holds in this one, Clemson's average margin of victory with Trevor Lawrence as a starter would be 33.9 points. SIX IN A ROW. Yikes welcome to the Conference Championship ND?????? I said earlier this week that this game was bigger for Brian Kelly’s resume than anything else. Progress has been made yes but he has failed to propel his team to new heights during the biggest games of his tenure. That targeting call on Nolan Turner should be confirmed. He will miss the first half of the semifinal game. Big blow for the Clemson D. I’m not sure if the score ousts Notre Dame from the playoff, but it sure would make it easy for the committee to drop the Irish to the 4 spot to avoid a third Clemson-ND game in a semifinal (assuming Bama wins). Here’s my case for Trevor for Heisman. The award qualifications: “player whose performance best exhibits the pursuit of excellence with integrity.” The guy literally helped save the season & is the most talented player in the game. That’s the very definition of the award. Clemson put in their backup QB in the conference championship because they’re winning by so much... We asked Santa for another ACC Championship this year... CLEMSON MEANT BUSINESS ?? Lmaooooooooooo. pic.twitter.com/FMLuSAlzDl Another Wow, Brian Kelly was serious about boycotting the Playoff. Congratulations to @ClemsonFB on their 6th consecutive @ACCFootball Championship! I am so proud of this team! #AnotherClemsonChampionship #ALLIN Clemson is the 3rd school in the AP Poll Era to record 10+ wins in at least 10 straight seasons, joining Florida State and Alabama. The biggest argument for Trevor Lawrence winning the Heisman: Dabo Swinney: "Of all the teams I’ve had this team deserved it the most." Dabo: "It would be a crying shame if the Heisman didn't attach their name to Trevor Lawrence." Here's 9 seconds of Jackson Carman making everyone nervous... Clemson played 2 games w/o its QB, dealt w/myriad injuries on defense, replaced 4 starters on OL, cycled through WRs trying to find an outside threat, had to rebound from 1st regular season loss in years… and here they are again, playoff bound. Dabo did a hell of a job in 2020. Clemson got the SI Football Phone for winning the ACC pic.twitter.com/UkzghTTRis It just doesn't make sense to put Cincinnati or Coastal Carolina in the Playoff to get destroyed by Alabama or Clemson. For everyone—EVERYONE—in the #ClemsonFamily who helped us during this crazy year, this championship is for YOU. ??-??-?? ??@Trevorlawrencee threw for 322 yds, ran for 90 yds and had 3 TDs in the #ACCFCG ?? pic.twitter.com/fceWzVHtFq Notre Dame averaged 5.2 yards a rush in first game when Clemson didnt have Davis, Skalski or Jones "It would be a crying shame if the Heisman didn't attach their name to Trevor Lawrence."#Trevor4Heisman ?? pic.twitter.com/XoEEjaJgTr Bama 1 There was a 349-yard swing in rushing yard advantage from the first game to the second between Notre Dame and Clemson. Good heavens. Moral of the Story: Be careful what you ask for?? #WeTooDeep My man ???? @Trevorlawrencee https://t.co/eUg5WMUZDO Fun discussion for tomorrow 2 spots left The new banner is already flying over Death Valley back home in Clemson! pic.twitter.com/yZbyH8ky4J I just heard an interesting stat that Trevor Lawrence is 38-1 as a starter all time at Clemson. Is this true? That seems incredible. How can he not win the Heisman? #Trevor4Heisman Make no mistake... The best player in the country. #Trevor4Heisman | @Trevorlawrencee pic.twitter.com/bahiQRQGZk #AnotherClemsonChampionship 6 in a row!! pic.twitter.com/jCmJgrkpjA Happy birthday, @_mjones24 ???? James Skalski has played in each of the last five acc championship games all Clemson wins. He is still eligible to come back next year due to the NCAA ruling due to COVID. In the words of Coach Swinney...
We’ve seen Oklahoma. We’ve seen Clemson vs Notre Dame x 2

Tigers (-10.5) dismantle Notre Dame 34-10 to win the ACC Championship
Did Trevor (3 Total TDs, 322 Passing Yards) make a late case for the Heisman? ?? pic.twitter.com/4A4FLHHrJ4
Clemson
Championship
Without him: Notre Dame 47, Clemson 40
With him: Clemson 34, Notre Dame 10
Very rarely do we have this kind of proof of a QB's value to his team. Y'all better do it.

That's why we should put Notre Dame or Texas A&M in the Playoff to get destroyed by Alabama or Clemson.
This is a true testament to the spirit of our Clemson community.
Thank you, thank you, thank you for all your efforts to help us get here. We did this together. pic.twitter.com/O8CaDZg2xl
