ACC Basketball Schedule Change Adds Emphasis To UNC's Non-Conference Success

Posted May 9, 2025
The ACC is switching from 20 conference games to 18 starting with the coming 2025-26 season. The league has played a 20-game schedule since the 2019-20 season, moving up from the 18-game model it began in 2012-13. For UNC, taking advantage of extra non-conference games will be crucial for its NET ranking and postseason standing in March. (Inside Carolina)
