Geeeeez. Holy September. That's going to be exhausting after 4 in a row.

Is that date for Wake official? If so, something changed.

It's official.

That September schedule is brutal for fans not in the Norfolk region. Its also a pretty tough schedule overall. I hope RR can get us 4 wins. Then again, if he's awesome and we truly do take a major step forward (like BW said) we could actually start out 5-1. That would be amazing. Hampton, FIU, MTSU, UConn, UTSA, UNCC. Thats our road to 6 wins.

Also, all Saturday games, so it doesnt look like any games were moved for TV.

September is going to be brutal. Say a prayer for night games.

Don't you want the team to get off to a hot start?

Bye right in the middle of the schedule! That seems good to me

Pretty favorable schedule all things considered.

What happened to the two bye weeks thing throughout FBS last year? Was that a one-off?

From the ODUSports Article, bolding their's...

It is important to note that all games are subject to date changes and some dates are expected to move in the coming weeks in order to accommodate national television. A schedule of televised games will be released at a later date.

That makes sense. Might plan to attend the Wake game a day earlier if you like planning ahead. (but not official)

Out of all the games to move, that would make the most sense.

That's a big boy schedule.

Fantastic schedule

Love the schedule, I just want to get to the point where we can have winning seasons with a schedule like this. Hopefully this year.

The team will be fine. I'm very concerned about fan heat-related injuries. I'm not sure the director of fan strength and confronting is taking the danger or heat seriously.

Great schedule. Not sure how we could do much better really. Only complaint is with UTSA. Getting really tired of these guys. Why don't we see USM more often? or UNT for that matter.

Although we're not getting to play Elon and Stony Brook (sarcasm alert), this is a great schedule. So glad we're FBS.
