View the crossover rotation
GREENSBORO, N.C.--The Atlantic Coast Conference released an equitable 12-year schedule for the rotating crossover conference opponents for its schools in football which begins this fall.
The rotating crossover opponent is the one ACC team that changes every year on each ACC teams' football schedules. With the addition of Pitt and Syracuse to the ACC this fall, each ACC team will play all six divisional opponents annually, one primary crossover team from the opposite division which does not change, and one rotating team from the opposite division which does change.
The league previously announced a future home and away schedule for divisional opponents and for each school's primary crossover team as well as each school's rotating crossover for 2013. Today's announcement completes the conference schedule for ACC teams from 2014 through the 2024 season.
The criteria used to develop the schedule includes the following:
Syracuse's 2013 crossover opponent is Georgia Tech (in Atlanta, October 19), while the annual crossover opponent is Pittsburgh, which will visit the Carrier Dome on November 23. In 2014 Duke will fill that role, followed by Virginia (away in 2015), Virginia Tech (home in 2016), Miami (away in 2017), North Carolina (home in 2018), Duke (away in 2019), Georgia Tech (home in 2020), Virginia Tech (away in 2021), Virginia (home in 2022), North Carolina (away in 2023) and Miami (home in 2024).
All fans are invited to join 'Orangenation Rising,' a state of mind where passion, tradition and die-hard loyalty intersect, by renewing their season tickets or purchasing new 2013 season tickets. Fans can use the internet (SUAthletics.com), telephone (888-DOME-TIX), or visit the Carrier Dome Box Office (Gate B). Season tickets start at just $99 each. Individual game tickets go on sale on August 1.
