All in all a pretty tough schedule, from Hop to the end vs Virginia is probably as difficult a stretch as any team in the country is going to play.

A couple general thoughts:

I like that SU is playing a 15 game schedule, 13 is to few and asking for problems if you stumble a bit.

Wish SU had worked with Cornell to split up the home and home so its the opposite of Hop. Would be nice to see at least one of those teams at home every year.

Glad to see Hobart is still on the schedule, no issue playing at Bart but would have preferred a little later in the season. That said it looks like we got it as late as possible with the ACC schedule backloaded for everyone.

First world problems but all things equal Id rather play Albany then Delaware at some random location in Virginia. Will certainly help the RPI more but not sure we need that game in the middle of that stretch.

Duke date has to be wrong, the 20th is a Wed, can't imagine that's correct.

A few key games standout - Maryland and Army early will be tough matchups. Gonna need to go at least 1-1 here, 0-2 would be a bad omen for the death part of the schedule.

Last 4 will be key as well - @ND, @ Cornell, @ UNC, home for UVA.  Gotta be 2-2 there at least. That UNC game will be tricky even if they are struggling.

Don't see a game that jumps out as an obvious trap game in the OOC, most realistic is probably Utah when you see who they are sandwiched around.  Hobart 3 days after Duke and @ Bart in god knows what weather is one to keep an eye on as well.
