Utah confirmed 5/8
Or NC State, or Louisville ...Boston College needs to bring back men's lacrosse. They have a top women's team, so it makes sense.
Courtesy of their STEM programs, NC State and both Techs are in the best position Title IX wise, requiring less juggling (not "no juggling", but "less juggling"). Both NC State and VA Tech had men's teams and dropped them (VA Tech right after we beat them 27-0 ). Lacrosse is a high school championship sport for both boys and girls in Georgia. There were rumors floating around a couple of years ago about Pitt possibly wanting to start a team. Ideally, at least two new teams come in so that the new guys are playing for 6th and not ending up 6th, since it will be a while before one of them challenges for 5th or better.Or NC State, or Louisville ...
I’d love to see my OrangeMen play at GA Tech regularly, but I just don’t see that happening. They do have a club team. We’ll see how many post-COVID years it will take before schools add sports.Courtesy of their STEM programs, NC State and both Techs are in the best position Title IX wise, requiring less juggling (not "no juggling", but "less juggling").

It would be real in the sense that the winner would get the AQ that the ACC would have re-earned. I still think only the top 4 would be playing for the AQ rather than the whole conference.I’d love to see my OrangeMen play at GA Tech regularly, but I just don’t see that happening.

I just want to see a real conference tournament for which we need one more team.

It is getting to the point where you start to wonder if Syracuse's opponents are making their schedule for them.StonyBrook. Fri March 12

MarylandWonder who the May 31st opponent will be .
By far the main reason it is third most difficult is the 6 ACC games, which are completely unavoidable. In fact we actually put in some games out of conference games that are a good deal easier than they usually are. Cornell Rutgers and Hopkins replaced by much easier games against Utah Hofstra and Vermont. It could have been a good deal more difficult actually if there were more of our standard out of conference games on there.3rd most difficult schedule, of course it is.
It was one thing to schedule like that when you were running out an all star team, but talent is spreading out now, why do that to yourself.
Albany will visit the Dome on April 8, with a 7 p.m. Friday night faceoff scheduled.
Is this Thurs April 8, or Friday April 9?
Going to miss the games against Hopkins/Cornell but it's cool to see some new blood on there too. Not sure how decisions were made, particularly with Covid but kind of surprised they didn't play one of SB or Hofstra away? Also wonder if they're going to do a home/home with Utah? Think it would be pretty cool for lacrosse if Syracuse made the trip out there to play.
Who wants to play outside in March when we have a nice roof over our heads.
Our last Western trip was 2005 against Georgetown at an event in LA. We never played at Denver, so I wouldn't expect to see a road trip to SLC.
