As of right now I think this would be the best possible match-up the ACC championship game.

Key wins - Clemson
#5 Georgia
#6 Florida State
@ top 25 Maryland
@ top 20 South Carolina

Key wins - Miami
#12 Florida
@ top 10 Florida State
top 20 Virginia Tech
@ top 25 Pitt

Top 3 Clemson 12-0 (8-0) vs. Top 10 Miami 12-0 (8-0)

Bank of America Stadium is sold out, ACC Championship Game airs on ABC.

If Miami was undefeated at 12-0 beating FSU and Virginia Tech, they would probably be top 5, not just top 10. Your scenario is the only possible one where both teams are undefeated so it would be great. A rematch between 12-0 FSU and 11-1 Miami wouldn't be so bad either.

A match-up of 1-loss FSU vs. 1-loss VT wouldn't be SO bad, either...

You're scenario assumes Miami will sell out 1/2 of the stadium I'm not so sure. I'd say either an undefeated FSU or Clemson vs. a 12-1 VT would be what's best for Charlotte. Sell out with lots of ticket demand.

I think we would be able to sell out our half of the stadium. Interest has surprisingly gone up quite a bit this year from our crappy support that used to be the standard. Our next home game versus Wake has - of 76,700 or so tickets - 7,900 left so it will probably sell out, and the VT and UVA games also are looking that way too. Win, and Miami fans will come out of the woodwork.

I think a lot of tickets are already sold and Clemson will sell out more than half.

Hey with either one of those match ups, I'm getting tickets!
remember the league has never seen the dream match up
FSU vs MIA for the title
and if CLEM or VT is there, it's sold out trust me. They'll be in Charlotte!

It would be much better if Clemson or FSU would have beaten their SEC brethren a week earlier. So if it's Clemson, they would roll into the game at 12-0 knowing a victory would put them in the national championship game. Best match up would be against either a 12-0 or 11-1 Miami. An 11-1 Miami team should be ranked in the top 10. Besides, the ACC needs Miami to rise again.

It's almost* sold out already (LINK to Primesports.com). I suspect after we know the winner of FSU @ Clemson, that team's fans will snatch up the remaining tix (so Miami & VT fans ought to get theirs while they still can)

* by that I mean there are many sections completely sold out and some which only have less than 20 tickets remaining in them. There are still some sections with large blocks unsold, too.
