They have three home/aways with schools: two are designated as "partners" and one seemingly random. Then 14 games of playing once.I would also be curious as to how they (ACC) designed their schedule. No way they are playing Home and Aways. With the number of teams that is impossible. So who drew the un lucky straw and got Duke twice? I assume everyone played everyone at least once. I know UNC/Duke play twice. So when people point out UNC was 14-6 in conference WHO they actually beat matters.
Would be even more interesting to figure out how they'd schedule if Big East/ACC merge, lol. If you squint, you can see a good formula that is best for everyone.
