UNC is averaging 77 points per game this season and they are ranked second in rebounds per game and assists. North Carolina was able to take down Virginia, who has one of the best defenses in the league. The team went 24-10 this season and they were 11-7 in conference play. The team comes in after winning over number three Virginia and they matchup with ND and this should be a strong game with teams looking to take the ACC title.

The Tar Heels come in having won five of the last six games, but they ended the regular season with a loss against Duke. North Carolina comes in after winning over Boston College and Louisville and now they matchup with Notre Dame in the finals.

Notre Dame had an impressive season and they come in after a win against Duke and that was by 10 in the semifinals. The team comes in averaging nearly 80 points per game this season and they are second in field goal percentage. Notre Dame could be a sleeper team in the NCAA tournament this season and they are looking to win the ACC tournament title.

The Tar Heels have not won the tournament in seven years and this is the first time Notre Dame has made an appearance in the final. UNC last won the tourney in 2008 and they have been in three of the past four seasons. The team now has the chance to get things done against Notre Dame and the Irish did the team a favor by knocking out Duke, who had been playing very well towards the end of the season.

Marcus Paige is key for the team and Notre Dame will try and shut him down after he dropped in 14 points against Virginia. The team is trying to win its third game in three tries against ranked teams and ND has put up some tough play in their last few. The two teams have played once this season, with Notre Dame winning against North Carolina.
