Ranking ACC 2024 football schedules by difficulty: How tough is Virginia Tech's?

• California 2024 schedule: vs. UC Davis, at Auburn, vs. San Diego State, at Florida State, vs. Miami, at Pittsburgh, vs. North Carolina State, vs. Oregon State, at Wake Forest, vs. Syracuse, vs. Stanford, at SMU

Aside from their first ACC game at Florida State, the conference schedule sets up well for the Golden Bears with their other road games at Pittsburgh, Wake Forest, and SMU being winnable games. Miami and NC State are going to be difficult, with a non-conference game at Auburn as a wild card match-up.
