ACC Releases Men’s Basketball Future Match-Ups
By Marc Pruitt
ACC men’s basketball coaching staffs can begin their film preparation for upcoming opponents for the next two seasons, as the league announced future match-ups on Tuesday for its 15 member schools.
Louisville joins the mix for the 2014-15 season, and each team will play an 18-game conference schedule for the third straight season. Nine of the teams entering play for the upcoming season played in a postseason tournament last season, seven of which played in the NCAA Tournament.
“It’s exciting to look ahead to our league’s basketball schedule, as there’s no shortage of quality conference games,” ACC Commissioner John Swofford said. “This two-year alignment will allow for outstanding opportunities that will highlight our teams and players while providing our fans with continually appealing matchups.”
Here are the future match-ups for the Big 4 schools of Duke, North Carolina, N.C. State, and Wake Forest.
