2023 Schedule

There's blah schedules then there are bad ones. 1 home game in 2 months, UNC Clemson FSU back to back to back and a home game being played at YS stadium in mid November = a bad schedule.

Yeah I hate the Pitt NYC game, but we don't do ourselves favors filling up most of September with OOC home games

Yes I tend to agree. Purdue loses a ton but it’s still a Big 10 road game. Army is no pushover. Three straight against Clemson/UNC/FSU is brutal, as is a Thursday nighter at Lane to follow. We’ve covered the Pitt to Yankee Stadium angle already…but wow what a bad year for this.

On paper there are a lot of wins to be had but the sequence is really going to test our depth. Coaching staff has their work cut out for them…

If that Pitt game is a home game the schedule looks a lot better. The early home games are a staple of most SU seasons and hard to avoid as most teams don't want to be playing an OOC game in October or November. The 3 game gauntlet is just the ACC crapping on us as usual.
 
Purdue is the swing game, you win that you are 4-0 with Clemson coming to the Dome, but even at 4-1 you have to think they can get two more and make a Bowl Game.
 
My god, I look at this and went from thinking 8 wins possible to worrying about a bowl game, home games matter and that Va Tech game being moved to a Thursday night prime time game hurts, plus moving Pitt to Yankee Stadium yikes.
Does the Thursday game hurt us more than Va Tech? I suppose it depends on which team has depth or injury issues.
 
This is my wayyy to early guess. I was hoping we could have got some more weapons from the transfer portal by now.

Loss at Tech? I just don't see it.
They played a lot better last season and they had a brutal schedule, toss up game, I hope I am wrong.
 
What?

It’s a great opening schedule. Real chance to start 4-0 again and not be beat up going into the league

I don't mind it, I'm just saying people shouldn't be surprised when the league loads up the road schedule on us in October cause we fill up our September dates.

Why? We beat Tech at Tech two years ago.

Edit: Nevermind, you're talking GTech. I was talking VTech.

Man, that run from Clemson through the Thursday night game at VaTech is brutal. Better start 4-0 because we might not win again until November.

Last four would look better without the stupid flocking trip to the Bronx. That might cost us a bowl game.

And Dino his job
 
From Oct 1st on, we have just 2 home games. This may be the worst schedule ever created. And that last home game Nov 25th if we are already eliminated from going to a bowl...that Dome will be dead and empty.
Also a great opportunity to get Clemson early and healthy. That’s the bowl game. Much rather have a front loaded home heavy schedule early.
