ACC Names "Partners" Posted Oct 4, 2012 Each ACC basketball team will have two primary partners that it will play home and away games with each season. UNC’s primary partners are Duke and N.C. State, which means the UNC-N.C. State annual home-and-home series that had been in jeopardy under the single primary partner plan will be saved. Duke’s primary partners will be UNC and Wake Forest.
