ACC Sets 2025-26 Basketball Schedules for 18 Teams, Reduces Games to 18

News summary

The Atlantic Coast Conference (ACC) has released the 2025-26 men's basketball conference schedules, adopting an 18-game slate with each team having one permanent and one rotating home-and-away opponent. Georgia Tech will host Clemson, its permanent partner, and North Carolina, along with California, in its nine home games, while traveling to teams including Duke, Louisville, and Virginia Tech. Virginia, under new coach Ryan Odom, will face primary partner Virginia Tech and rotating partner NC State both home and away, with other home games against California, Miami, and North Carolina, while notably not playing Clemson. Florida State's schedule features Miami as its primary partner and Southern Methodist as the variable partner, with key games including an away match against North Carolina and a home game against Duke. This schedule restructuring follows the ACC's reduction from a 20-game to an 18-game season to accommodate fewer NCAA Tournament bids. The new scheduling model highlights rivalries and introduces new rotational matchups, reflecting strategic conference adjustments for competitive balance and travel considerations.
