Congrats to Bates on the FB non-conference schedule

[Burke79]

Taking it easy: NC State is hoping it's building toward
contention in the Atlantic, and a weak non-conference slate (13th among
ACC schools) should help boost win totals. But will it reflect poorly
for potential New Year's Six games? North Carolina is in a similar boat,
ranking 12th in the league in future non-conference schedule -- a slate
that includes a matchup against fellow ACC member Wake Forest that will
be played as a non-conference game. Louisville's schedule also isn't
overwhelming for a program that considers itself on the fringes of
playoff contention already,

while BC brings up the rear with among the
least impressive slates in the Power 5 over the next five seasons. Each
of those programs is currently in a building stage, but it will be
interesting to see if at least a few will take steps to improve the
scheduling -- and, ideally, committee perception -- as they gain better
footing in the ACC.
