Might hear something next week. Depends how quickly those two pieces fall into place. ACC probably isn't going to release a schedule that has "TBA at Syracuse" on it or one that says there will be a Labor Day game, but that they can't announce it yet.

id think the schools were likely given a final draft of the schedule last week to look over and submit any concerns with it for there school. so syracuse should be abl to lineup there final game with firm dates that are open for the game.The labor day stuff shouldnt take that long to move games around.

They probably saw a draft of it at the winter meetings. Might have also been required to provide any updates on any games that were in process of being finalized (ie. ULM-WF) and if any teams targeted for a Labor Day game were able to discuss moving out of conference games with other schools.

ESPN and Raycom may have also solicited some information about specific games over the 1st three weeks of the season before spring ball starts with the intention of making those picks in mid-May while at the ACC spring meetings. It sounds like both were in attendance at the winter meetings.
