^ The game against Wake Forest, a fellow member of the Atlantic Coast Conference, was played as a non-conference game and did not count in the league standings. [6] This was done because the two rivals otherwise only play once every six years due to conference divisional alignment.
^ The Duke's Mayo Bowl was the 59th edition of the North Carolina–South Carolina football rivalry. The two teams are next scheduled to kick off the 2023 season, also at Bank of America Stadium in Charlotte.
