While none of the teams in the ACC necessarily jump off the page as national title contenders this season, they're not completely without merit either. Show The conference has produced some of the nation's top quarterbacks this season, with several ACC gunslingers in the top-20 of most major statistical categories. Notably is Virginia's Brennan Armstrong who ranks fourth in completions, second in passing yards and is tied for fifth in passing touchdowns with fellow ACC quarterback Sam Hartman of Wake Forest. BENDER: What would a 12-team Playoff look like after second rankings? Armstrong has helped lead the Cavaliers to a 6-3 start so far this year, though Bronco Mendenhall's squad has yet to notch a signature win this season. They're looking to change that as No. 9 Notre Dame heads to Charlottesville having won four in a row and sitting at 8-1 on the season. The Cavaliers' quarterback is in his second year starting and has improved mightily since last year — he's got 27 touchdowns in nine games to go along with 3,557 yards while completing over 64 percent of his passes. Notre Dame has just one ranked win this year — over then-No. 17 Wisconsin — while struggling against Florida State, Toledo and Virginia Tech, losing to those three teams — who are a combined 11-16 this year — by a total of nine points. BENDER: 10 best college football games left in November The Fighting Irish have been led by quarterback and former Wisconsin starter Jack Coan, who's in his first season in South Bend and has been serviceable, not great, this year. So far, he has 13 touchdowns and three intereptions while completing over 65 percent of his passes but has just 1,879 yards through nine games. A commanding win will likely propel the Irish further up the CFP rankings while a win by Virginia would give the Cavaliers their first top-10 win under Mendenhall and just their fourth ranked win overall in Mendenhall's six years.

Notre Dame will look to earn a competitive bowl game slot as they prepare to face Stanford on the road. A win against Stanford to end the regular season will boost the Fighting Irish's chances at earning a competitive bowl game slot. After throwing for 285 yards with two touchdowns during Notre Dame's 55-0 shutout victory over Georgia Tech last week, quarterback Jack Coan will lead Notre Dame against the Cardinals. Coan will continue to strengthen his connection with tight end Michael Mayer. Although both Coan and Mayer have struggled to stay healthy this season, Mayer leads Notre Dame with 663 receiving yards and five touchdowns. Coan will also utilize running back Kyren Williams, who leads the Fighting Irish with 928 rushing yards with 12 touchdowns. Quarterback Tanner McKee, who has struggled with a leg injury throughout November, will look to snap a six-game losing streak against the Fighting Irish. He made his return to the starting lineup during Stanford's 41-11 loss to California last week and threw for 239 yards with two interceptions. Tight end Benjamin Yurosek leads the Cardinals with 566 receiving yards with two touchdowns followed by wide receiver Elijah Higgins, who records 491 receiving yards with four touchdowns.
