A Cincinnati Bearcats fan on CSNBBS who goes by "CliftonAve" put together a list of TV viewership numbers for all of the FBS conference championships (except C-USA, because their number wasn't reported). I added the bar graph...

As I have always stated, the ACC misses the boat consistently that FSU is THE TV ratings draw for the ACC.

The ACC CG fell all the way to 5th, nearly 2 million viewers below the Pac-12. Totally unacceptable! What gives, ACC? Well, this is the culmination of a downward trend which began in 2015 (perhaps not coincidentally when Clemson took over the Atlantic division from Florida State?)
Here are the viewership numbers for the last 8 ACC Championship Games:

The 2020 ACC Championship Game between then-No. 2 Notre Dame and then-No. 3 Clemson was one for the record books, as the rematch between the Fighting Irish and Tigers registered 10,180,000 viewers across all TV and streaming platforms to rank as the most-viewed conference championship game this weekend and the most-viewed ACC Championship of all time.
Excluding additional streaming on the ESPN App, the ACC Championship Game averaged 9,919,000 viewers on ABC, up 149 percent year-over-year. Saturday’s ACC Championship marks the first time since 2007 that ABC aired the most-viewed conference championship game across all networks.
Saturday’s ACC Championship audience peaked with 11,646,000 viewers from 5:15 – 5:30 p.m. ET, as Clemson scored in the closing seconds of the first half to take a 24-3 lead heading into halftime. Saturday’s conference championship game was nearly flat from the teams’ regular season meeting, a 2OT thriller in November, and ranks as the second-most viewed college football game of the season.
