Duke’s path through the ACC is now set as the league announced its men’s basketball schedules Wednesday afternoon.
The Blue Devils’ 2026-27 slate includes 18 conference games, with an even split of nine inside Cameron Indoor Stadium and nine away from the Bull City.
Duke will play two home-and-home series. The first is obviously against North Carolina on Feb. 13 at home and March 6 in Chapel Hill, while the second is against Virginia. The Blue Devils will travel to play the Cavaliers on Feb. 6 and will host the Hoos on March 1 for the final home game of the season.
Coach Jon Scheyer’s squad will open ACC play with a trip to “The A” to take on Georgia Tech on Dec. 30, then return to Durham to host California in the home opener on Jan. 2.
One of the
key schedule dynamics working against Duke with this slate includes a stretch of three road games in four outings, beginning at Boston College on Jan. 16, and continuing at Wake Forest on Jan. 20. The Blue Devils will then return to Cameron Indoor Stadium to face Notre Dame on Jan. 23, before closing January at Clemson on Jan. 30.
Duke will also have an interesting close to February as it has to follow up its previously scheduled Feb. 20 game against Gonzaga in Detroit, with a showdown at Louisville on Feb. 24, followed by a home game versus in-state rival NC State on Feb. 27.
The top 15 teams in the final ACC standings will advance to the 2027 ACC Men’s Basketball Tournament. The event is slated for March 9-13 at the First Horizon Center in Greensboro.
Tipoff times and television designations for all of Duke’s league games will be announced at a later date.
