2019 Schedule Build

[MikeJackets1967]

I’ve heard rumors of a possible home and home with UCLA in next 2 years.

I'd like to see GT have a home and home with LSU one day

That would me most welcomed

Me too!!

 

[MikeJackets1967]

Me too!!

It would be cool to take a trip to Baton Rouge to see GT play LSU

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

Educated guess based on alternating from most recent matchups:
@BC
CLEM (already scheduled for Home)
@LOU
ND at Home

I do reserve the right to be gloriously incorrect. It's a "you get what you pay for" deal.

I agree with Fred. I have a spreadsheet trying to project future opponents, and that is what my 2019 looked like based on past trends. Although those trends are short term based on Maryland being in conference in 2014, so the ACC can change them to meet UNC, Duke, Wake, or NCSU's needs.

Living in Cincinnati, I always need to be projecting to see what away games are most accessible to me.

GT needs to play Cincinnati in Cincinnati so we can get some 3 way Chili

 

[CINCYMETJACKET]

I'd be there, but I don't see that happening anytime soon.

Hearing Northwestern and Western Carolina for weekend series. One early and one late in year. Overall a very tough schedule of course, but one that could lead to hosting if successful.

 

[FredJacket]

Very cool. Thank you for the lead, @NW GA JACKET

Add Northwestern. Will be in Atlanta for final weekend series before ACC play begins the following weekend in Miami. Northwestern actually travels to Durham to play Duke the weekend prior to their trip to Atlanta. This list is 30 games... so a little over half the expected 55-56 games.

Changing my format a little.... games in chronological order with [*] denoting conference games and Bold are weekends.

3/22-3/24@ Louisville
3/29-3/31 Notre Dame
4/5-4/7 UNC
4/12-4/14. @ BC
5/10-5/12 @Duke

That should be conference and throw UCLA and Western Carolina in the gaps on home weekends.

Thank you, @NW GA JACKET for the scheduling info. UCLA released their schedule today. They visit Russ Chandler the 2nd weekend of the season. Filling in the info from @NW GA JACKET here's the schedule. All weekends are accounted for... I think the only outstanding midweek opponents (based on logical GA competition) are Kennesaw St & Ga Southern. With those 4 (assumed) games gets it to 55 on the schedule.

Must say... at first glance, I like the schedule overall. Not an overbearing ACC slate especially looking at sequence & home/away mix. All that is sort of FWIW. The team still needs to win the 'next' game/series no matter when/where. But... I like it!

Also... this goes without saying; but the midweek games are important. Need a 4th "weekend caliber" starter to emerge & help get wins over those stout SEC teams midweek. Beef up that RPI.

Ok cool! Thanks

To officially complete this little project... every opponent on our schedule has released their respective schedules. This spanned from around 9/20-11/27. Ga Tech has not yet released theirs. For some reason I'm real curious why... someone has to be last, I suppose.

I'll be glad when the schedule comes out! May make it to 1 game missed out last year but the year before I enjoyed it lost to Louisville but can't win them all on hot days like April and March make sure you sit under the roof of the stadium learned that early and had great seats when we got there!

The only team I see out of the geico that will be hard is UCLA there pretty good but the others before them I think we cam beat them!

Geico gecko? Off season is a great time for optimism.

D1 baseball is looking at UCLA to be able to get back to CWS for the first time since 2013. Aweome pitching as usual.

Great for our RPI to be playing them, but I wish it was in Ca.

I saw a projection / prediction (way early...obviously) from Perfect Game that had 4 of our opponents in Omaha: UCLA, UGA, Auburn, Louisville.

That's roughly 20% of the schedule.

Also... I suspect there will be 1 or 2 more midweek games added to that latest schedule posted in this thread.
