The North Carolina Tar Heels men’s basketball program officially began practice for the upcoming 2024-25 season this week, as exciting times are on the horizon. UNC is coming off a season last year in which they won the ACC regular-season title and earned a No. 1 seed in the NCAA tournament.

This year, however, they are looking for revenge after their season ended prematurely in the Sweet 16.

As we prepare for the upcoming season, the Tar Heels already have their first opponent on the 2024-25 ACC schedule. In ACC PM, Mark Packer released the first game on the conference schedule for each team, as North Carolina is set to host Georgia Tech on December 7th to open the year.

The complete list of season openers for each team in the conference can be seen below:

North Carolina and Georgia Tech met just once last season, with the Yellow Jackets defeating the Tar Heels 74-73 in Atlanta. It was a tough loss for UNC, but Hubert Davis’s team bounced back well to beat Duke a few days later.

The complete 2024-25 ACC schedule will be released Tuesday evening on the ACC Network.
