No. 3-ranked Clemson announced its list of players expected to be unavailable in Saturday's ACC Championship Game versus No. 2 Notre Dame in a 4 p.m. broadcast start on ABC.

Headlining that group for Clemson is Xavier Thomas, who had come on to playing more down the stretch after missing the early part of the season. Thomas had not been among players expected to miss action, having contributed three tackles (1.5 for loss) over 47 snaps in the last two games.
