The ACC office released the next two seasons conference match-ups (just who plays who/where, not when). NC State will play the following teams: 2014-1
[See the full post at: ACC Basketball Matchups released ]^Sorry, I was in the forum and failed to realize this was a blog post.
Posted the following in the other forum thread:
State’s 2014-15 schedule:
Home/Road: North Carolina, Wake Forest, Clemson, Virginia
Home: Duke, Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Notre Dame
Road: Florida State, Miami, Georgia Tech, Louisville, Boston CollegeLooks like a path to a pretty good conference schedule.
Expected losses: Duke (home), UNC (road), Louisville (road)
Expected wins: Wake (home), Wake (road), Clemson (home), VT (home), Notre Dame (home), GT (road), BC (road)That’s not to say that we can’t win or lose any of these games, but this is what I expect based on what I know now. That’s 7-3, with 8 games that could go either way. I can easily see 11-7, and maybe 12-6.
State’s 2015-16 schedule:
Home/Road: North Carolina, Wake Forest, Florida State, Duke
Home: Miami, Georgia Tech, Clemson, Louisville, Boston College
Road: Virginia, Virginia Tech, Pittsburgh, Syracuse, Notre DameThis doesn’t look as appealing.
Expected losses: Duke (home), Duke (road), UNC (road), Louisville (home), Syracuse (road)
Expected wins: Wake (home), Wake (road), FSU (home), Miami (home), GT (home), Clemson (home), BC (home), VT (road), Notre Dame (road)That is 9-5, but leaves these 4 as the toss-up games: UNC (home), UVA (road), Pitt (road), FSU (road). While I think those games will likely be more winnable than those I named as expected losses, we could still easily go 1-3 or even 0-4 in those games, leaving us with just 9 or 10 conference wins.
Hopefully our team’s development and continuing recruiting success will have our team prepared to excel against this tougher schedule by 2015-16.
