Posted Jul 6, 2020
Here is a ranking of the most difficult ACC non-conference football schedules. 4. North Carolina: Sept. 4 at UCF, Sept. 12 vs. Auburn (in Atlanta), Sept. 19 vs. James Madison, Nov. 7 vs. UConn. There will be no ease-in time for the Tar Heels in 2020. UCF will be pushing for a New Year’s Six bid and Auburn will attempt to reload behind quarterback Bo Nix. (Athlon Sports)
