One week from today, the Virginia Men’s Basketball team will take the court at UNC-Greensboro to kick off the 2016-2017 season. Earlier this week, we took a look at Virginia’s out of conference schedule, so now, it’s time to check out their daunting ACC schedule.
Based on the preseason AP poll, No. 8 Virginia will face four ranked teams (No. 1 Duke, No. 6 UNC, No. 13 Louisville, and No. 19 Syracuse) as well as five teams also receiving votes (Florida State, NC State, Virginia Tech, Notre Dame, and Miami). Playing in the ACC is notoriously difficult.
