CHARLOTTE – The Atlantic Coast Conference has released the complete 2025-26 men’s basketball slate on Tuesday afternoon, completing Notre Dame’s schedule for the upcoming season. A reminder that the ACC moved to an 18-game schedule, with the Fighting Irish set for a home-and-home with its primary partner, Boston College, and this year’s variable partner, Stanford (variable partners will change each season). Teams will play one game, home or away, against 14 of the remaining 15 teams annually.

ACC play will tip off right before the New Year on either Dec. 30 or Dec. 31. The Irish will jet west for their first Cali ACC road swing, starting the conference slate the way they ended it a year ago. First, a midweek matchup with the Stanford Cardinal, then the California Bears on Friday, Jan. 2. It’ll mark Notre Dame’s first-ever trip to Berkeley and second to Palo Alto. ND’s lone game in Maples Pavilion – a 67-61 victory on Jan. 12, 1993.

• Irish lead Stanford, 4-0, in the series. Last season, Cole Certa drained a corner three for the 56-54 win at home.
• Irish lead Cal, 3-0, in the series. Last season, ND outlasted Cal in four overtimes, taking it 112-10. Markus Burton dropped a career high 43 points, the most by an Irish player in an ACC contest.

Notre Dame will then head back to the Midwest for its first hosting duties, welcoming Clemson on Saturday, Jan. 10, then Miami on either Jan. 13/14.

• Irish lead Clemson, 9-4.
• Irish trail Miami, 13-18.

The Blue & Gold will settle into a two-game rotating schedule for the rest of the month. Two back on the road with Virginia Tech on Saturday, Jan. 17, and then North Carolina on either Jan. 20/21. Next, back at home for two with a Saturday matchup with Boston College on Jan. 24, followed by a midweek with Virginia. Then back on the road for two with trips to Syracuse on Saturday, Jan. 31, followed by a midweek clash at Louisville.

• Irish trail Virginia Tech, 10-12.
• Irish trail UNC, 9-32. Last win inside the Dean Smith Center was a 71-70 victory on Jan. 5, 2015.
• Irish lead BC, 29-17. Last year, ND completed a season sweep against the Eagles for the first time since 2019, which included a double overtime win in Chestnut Hill.
• Irish trail Virginia, 5-18. ND earned its first-ever win in Charlottesville last season via a 74-59 decision.
• Irish trail Syracuse, 24-35. Looking for first win at Syracuse since Jan. 4, 2020.
• Irish trail Louisville, 19-27. ND has won two straight inside the KFC Yum Center.

Notre Dame will then bounce back and forth but reap the benefit of consecutive Saturday games inside Purcell Pavilion. The Irish will host Florida State on Saturday, Feb. 7, travel to SMU on either Feb. 10/11, then host Georgia Tech on Saturday, Feb. 14. Notre Dame will then have its lone midweek bye before jetting to Pittsburgh on Saturday, Feb. 21.

• Irish trails FSU, 5-12.

The Irish will then welcome NC State on Saturday, Feb. 28, and then complete the home-and-home with Stanford on either March 3/4. Notre Dame closes it out on the road with its other home-and-home, Boston College, on Saturday, March 7.
