While we are at the start of the college football season, it won't be long until the start of the college basketball season is underway. For North Carolina, they are in the first year of the Michael Malone era, taking over for Hubert Davis.
So far, Malone has built his roster, done some recruiting and is preparing for the upcoming campaign. While we know UNC's non-conference matchups, we now have the Atlantic Coast Conference schedule, which completes the full schedule for the Tar Heels.
On Wednesday, UNC revealed their ACC schedule for the upcoming campaign, and they will open at home on December 30th, hosting Cal.
UNC will play Duke and Louisville twice this season, both home and away. They will also play NC State twice, but only once as a conference
game. They are also scheduled to play NC State in Greensboro in a non-conference game.
They will host Georgia Tech, Miami, NC State, SMU, Stanford, and Virginia. They will visit Boston College, Florida State, Notre Dame, Pitt, Syracuse, Virginia Tech, and Wake Forest.
Take a look at the full schedule below:

Looking at the schedule, UNC will not play Clemson at all this season; they are the only team they won't have on their ACC schedule.
UNC will open the regular season at home by hosting Western Carolina on November 2nd in Chapel Hill.
