Atlantic Coast Conference Announces Plans For Fall Schedule, Safety In Light Of COVID-19 Pandemic

After a number of conferences announced plans for fall competition—whether it be delayed start up to postponement, the Atlantic Coast Conference announced plans of its own for play in the fall semester.

For football, play will start the week of Sept. 7-12. All conference members, including Notre Dame temporarily will play an eleven game schedule, with ten games in conference and one out of conference game either played at home or against an in-state opponent, leaving open the opportunity to maintain ACC-SEC rivalries like Georgia-Georgia Tech and Clemson-South Carolina. BC is slated to play Georgia Tech, Louisville, North Carolina, Notre Dame and Pittsburgh at home, Clemson, Duke, Syracuse, Virginia and Virginia Tech on the road, with dates and TV to be determined.
