The Atlantic Coast Conference is one of the top conferences across the Men's College Basketball landscape, and it often features teams with plenty of NBA-ready talent battling for the championship.
This season, new programs including California, Stanford and SMU have joined the conference as part of the realignment that took place over the past few years.
But as usual, the ACC's blue bloods are projected to lead the way. The North Carolina Tar Heels have won the most ACC regular season titles in history with 33, including winning it in 2024, while the Duke Blue Devils are second with 20 titles with the most recent coming in 2022.
Ahead of the 2024/25 campaign, Duke brought in one of the nation's top recruiting classes and North Carolina is bringing back key players from last season including RJ Davis, Elliot Cadeau and Seth Trimble.
Only four ACC teams - Duke, North Carolina, the Clemson Tigers and the NC State Wolfpack - made the 2024 NCAA tournament. NC State won three upset games to get to the national semifinal, where they lost to Purdue.
Another traditional powerhouse in the ACC, the Virginia Cavaliers, are undergoing something of a rebuild after longtime head coach Tony Bennett retired a few weeks before the start of the season, pushing them further back in the odds. Virginia won the ACC regular season title in 2018, 2019, 2021, and 2023.
