2020 ACC football schedule model

What I like about the 10-game conference schedule is it's impossible for schools like Duke to play a joke schedule. Yes, they dodge Clemson, but they still have VT, Notre Dame, FSU, us, etc.
 
Clemson does not play Duke, UNC, NCSt.

Are they not allowed to travel to Raleigh-Durham or something?

BC and Syracuse away?

6 Atlantic teams. Love love love that.

We play the worst 4 teams in the conference (Duke, BC, NCSU, Cuse). Don’t hate that.

Clemson, ND, FSU. Like that a lot.

Would have liked to keep VT for personal reasons, but not a huge deal.

Overall our schedule got a lot easier relative to the other Coastal teams who can’t hide behind joke schedules in this model.

Honestly I can see 6-4 being a reasonable expectation/goal with this schedule. Especially with some likely chaos in the more talented rosters (elite players sitting out). We’ll have better talent on the field than 6 of our opponents.
