The Atlantic Coast Conference announced on May 28 the matchups for its 18-game men’s basketball schedule for the 2026-27 season. The league will begin play in late December and conclude on the first Saturday of March.
Each team in the conference will play one primary partner both at home and away, as well as one variable partner both home and away. The variable partner changes each season. Additionally, teams will face each of the remaining 15 teams once per year, either at home or away.
For Notre Dame’s men’s basketball team, Boston College and Wake Forest are designated as both home and away opponents. Home-only games will be played against California, North Carolina, Pitt, SMU, Stanford, Syracuse, and Virginia Tech. Away-only games include Clemson, Duke, Florida State, Georgia Tech, Miami, NC State, and Virginia. Notre Dame will not play Louisville during this conference schedule.
The full conference schedule with specific dates, times, and television designations is expected to be released in September.
