The 2024-25 ACC regular season is over for men's basketball. The ACC Tournament is here and 15 of the 18 teams will gather beginning Tuesday in Charlotte at the Spectrum Center. With the additions of Stanford, SMU, and California expanding the conference to 18 teams, that means the bottom three teams had their season end on Saturday.
Miami, North Carolina State, and Boston College will not be part of this year's tournament, finishing in the basement this year in the ACC. Even if it's a one-and-done for a lot of teams, just being part of the tournament is great for any program. One of those teams will benefit greatly is Virginia Tech, which went a surprising 8-12 in conference play after a 65-47 loss at Clemson on Saturday night. Here are the matchups for this season's ACC Tournament.
