(4-1) NC State Wolfpack at (6-0) Clemson Tigers

Date: October 15th, 2016

Time: 12:00pm

Location: Memorial Stadium, South Carolina

TV: ABC

How it could help Louisville: This could make for a very interesting game between the Clemson Tigers and the NC State Wolfpack. In order for Louisville to have the most legit chance to make the playoff, they will need to win the ACC Championship. The simple fact is that they cannot do that unless Clemson loses two ACC games this season. NC State has gotten off to a very fast start and if they could beat Clemson, Louisville would still have a chance since the Tigers still have to play Florida State this season.

Next: Alabama?

It’s not likely that the Tigers will lose at home to the Wolfpack, but if they did, it would help the Louisville football team greatly.
