The ACC/B1G challenge starts tonight. Experts are predicting the next couple nights to be dominated by the Big Ten, but hopefully the ACC can prove them wrong. Rarely does a conference have the ability to make a statement nationally that can have ramifications in March, but the ACC has a chance to do so the next two nights.
I spent a lot of time writing previews for almost all of tonight's games (at least the ones people care about), so make sure to check out the previews below. As always there are a ton of links below for your reading pleasure. Go ACC!
