Schedule[edit]

Duke and the ACC announced the 2023 football schedule on January 30, 2023.^[1]^[2] The 2023 season will be the conference's first season since 2004, that its scheduling format just includes one division. The new format sets Duke with three set conference opponents, while playing the remaining ten teams twice (home and away) in a four–year cycle. The Blue Devils three set conference opponents for the next four years are: NC State, North Carolina, and Wake Forest.^[3]^[4] As such, this is the first season since 1932 that the Blue Devils didn't play rival Georgia Tech.
