I thought the ACC announced they wouldn't be doing non-cartel 5 road games anymore? I see today that they start a H&H with Western Michigan next year. Did the ACC change that policy?

I think it was scheduled when SS was HC at SU, and I'm not sure if it's s H&H. It might be the last 2 games of a 2-1. But I honestly don't know/remember.

I don't recall hearing of such a policy.

There isn't one, UNC is playing both ODU & Charlotte on the road. This is basically (a) winnable game & (b) within reasonable driving distance of several major population centers that Syracuse wants to recruit.

I looked into it, and I think it let's us start 2019 w 2 away games (which gives us a cushion for the stadium renovation), a significant chunk of the WMU staff coached at SU, and it's a winnable game.

(The @UMD game was moved to week 2 as part of the same announcement)

No such policy exists. Only policy is ACC must play a P5 OOC every season.

I think Pitt announced some internal policy like that, but I don't think the ACC has any such policy.

Yes, including their HC, the DC and the director of football operations. Its great for coaches to have those connections. You never know when you may need to draw from them.

Just watch the refs at the goal posts. Toledo fans won't forget
