Huge day of ACC basketball in front of us. I spent a good part of last night writing up previews for the key non-conference matchups today. You'll see the links to the previews at the bottom of this post. The other big news from last night is that Game Sim is now LIVE for the 2012-13 season. That means you can sim games for this season's teams against any team back to the 1950's.
Let's take a look at what Game Sim has in store for today's ACC basketball matchups. You can find links to sim all of today's games on the NCAA Scoreboard.
