The last time we played Miami in lane on a Saturday was in 2011. And we all know how that one turned out. My only complaint is that they really didn't separate the trips to UNC and Duke. 2 games in the Triangle within 3 weeks is going to cause a significant portion of the fanbase to choose one or the other, and not attend both, like we did in 2016. Two of those three are the ones that I mind least having a bye week before us.
My brother also scheduled his wedding for Sept. When I found out first thing I did was check the VT schedule, its the 22nd, at ODU, I told him he was lucky that he picked what should be a walkover game.

Normally I assume it's the second to last weekend in April and just reserve a place to stay. I've moved away from the area, but its a good location to make many a conference game...aside from the BC, UM, Syracuse, Pitt, etc ones... His decision was made after a phone call with longtime Virginia Tech assistant coach Bud Foster. All Foster told him was, "We win. They don't."

Still don't know why they picked football season to have the wedding. As soon as they announce kickoff time for UNC, I'm buying tickets. How many I get depends on how many members of the household want to come with me.

The third, well, we have a bye week too. This is actually pretty amazing that these are our only two games outside of VA and NC, although Pitt isn't usually much of a "true" road game. They don't come close to filling Heinz Field. While the NC games should have plenty of support for the visitors. Miami and Virginia both come to VT the week after playing at Georgia Tech.
