Ok. Made me look. Here's what I pieced together:
Mar 9-11 @ Clemson
Mar 16-18 Home v Va Tech
Apr 27-29 Home v Wake Forest

I think those are only ACC teams with published schedules to date.

With 10 ACC series on the schedule, and already 2 Atlantic opponents set... that means we will only have 2 more Atlantic opponents scheduled.

Wonder which 2 from this list? FSU, Louisville, BC, NC State, ND

The 3 Atlantic teams we did not face last year? FSU, BC, NC State

I can't say I know how it works, but I'm betting we get 2 of those (FSU, BC, NC State).

Speaking of how it works. Does anyone know why the college baseball schedules are released over such a long stretch of time? In recent years, Ga Tech does not release its schedule until around Dec 1st. Yet a few schools are already releasing theirs.

I bet that we play BC and NC State this year.
As to your other question, I have no idea why schedules are released like that.

Have heard we are playing Minnesota this year. Pretty sure it's the Gophers but maybe it's another school in Minnesota. Playing in Atlanta.

Add Pitt (officially) and based on my puzzle-solving add (unofficially) NC State, Miami, FSU

Mar 9-11 @ Clemson
Mar 16-18 Home v Va Tech
Apr 13-15 @ Pitt
Apr 20-22 @ UNC
Apr 27-29 Home v Wake Forest
May 11-13 @ UVA
May 17-19 Home v Duke

Pitt's Atlantic opponents: Clemson, Louisville, ND, BC
-----------------------------
While not official... I think the rest of our schedule can be filled in based on who still has holes in their schedule and required meetings in Coastal, here is what I think is rest of our ACC schedule:
Mar 23-25 @ NC State
Mar 30-Apr 1 Home v Miami
Apr 6-8 Home v FSU

Atlantic opponents we won't meet in 2018: Louisville, BC, & ND

Bottom line: Seems like a tough schedule (no surprise); but those 4 cross-divisional games: on road to Clemson and NC State and home to FSU and Wake Forest...particularly tough.

I think the ACC and SEC are the best top to bottom conferences, which one is better varies with the year ...... no easy way through. Not playing L'Ville is good!

Hope we make the NCAAs this year!
