The 2019-20 season didn’t end according to plan, and now the 2020-21 season won’t begin according to plan, but what does ACC Basketball look like heading into the season?

The 2019-20 ACC Basketball season ended with Syracuse beating North Carolina in the ACC Tournament in Greensboro, North Carolina, as the remainder of the ACC Tournament would later be canceled. Since then the NCAA Tournament was canceled and the 2020-21 season has been pushed back due to the ongoing COVID-19 pandemic. Because of this, the 2020-21 season is going to be one of the most interesting we have seen in quite some time. There is no true reigning ACC tournament Champion, we didn’t get to see how many ACC teams made the NCAA Tournament and how they would do in the NCAA Tournament, and a plethora of other reasons.

In addition to that, the NBA Draft is taking place only a week before the 2020-21 College Basketball season kicks off, which makes for an interesting series of events. Nonetheless, the 2020-21 College Basketball Season is set to tip-off on November 25th as in-season tournaments have moved locations and have added bubbles to ensure that players and coaches wouldn’t contract COVID-19, and we might see arenas with limited fans.

It is for these reasons that the 2020-21 season is going to be so interesting, and so unique. It is also for these reasons that we could see teams that we didn’t expect to be good, surprise many, and thrive. Above all, the 2020-21 ACC Season is going to be really interesting as we see teams like the North Carolina Tar Heels, who had a horrible 2019-20 season, come out with a rebuilt roster, and hopes of being competitive this year.

South Carolina's win streak halted at 29, NC State women's basketball secures third-ever victory over a No. 1

The top-ranked South Carolina women's basketball team saw its 29-game winning streak end Thursday at home in Columbia, South Carolina, as the Gamecocks were upset 54-46 by No. 8 NC State. It was the first loss for the Gamecocks since Nov. 28, 2019, when they fell to Indiana 71-57 in the Virgin Islands. South Carolina didn't lose again last season and ended it ranked No. 1; the Gamecocks would have been a No. 1 seed had there been an NCAA tournament. The Gamecocks started this season at No. 1 and got off to a 3-0 start. But offensively, they struggled against NC State, shooting just 27% from the field (20 of 74). This was a game in which the Gamecocks definitely seemed to miss point guard Tyasha Harris, who finished her career last season and moved on to the WNBA. Entering the game, NC State was 2-17 vs No. 1-ranked teams in the Associated Press poll era, which for the women began in the 1976-77 season.
