Can they get to 10 wins in ACC is the question - that’s a safe enough benchmark in years past for the play-in game for the Dance, NCAAT expansion notwithstanding.
Bad news: Just a brutal road slate.
At first glance in May, on paper, Duke, L’ville, UNC, Clemson and SMU are all most likely L’s. Can they go 3-1 at Furd, NCSU, Pitt and ND? Whew, could be tough.
Home is manageable - if they’re gonna Dance, gotta go at least 7-2 - maybe drop UVA and Miami? NC State without Will Wade is maybe a bit more winnable but the 2 v a soft GaTech last year was nice.
Nice! Thanks Jesse!

Go Basketball Bears!
Fairly weak home schedule. If they package the Duke and UNC games together this year, I'd be compelled to travel for those.
So we play NC State at home and then at home? Cool.
