ESPN reports Wake Forest and North Carolina have scheduled and home-and-home football series that will not count in the conference standings:
North Carolina and Wake Forest are in separate divisions in the ACC and no longer play annually. Because of that, the two have only met four times since 2004.
The two are scheduled to play a conference game in Chapel Hill in 2015. But their next scheduled conference game is not until 2022 in Winston-Salem.
Hey I’m Mr. Oldschool when it comes to the ACC, so I’m still having trouble with the havoc expansion is wreaking on traditional matchups both in football and basketball, though I have enjoyed Louisville and Notre Dame coming south —Sunday night’s Irish -N.C. State matchup was very entertaining, although it was not the outcome I would have preferred.
