The Notre Dame men’s basketball team has started to turn its season around. After struggling to just a 1-4 start in ACC play, the team has won three of its past four conference games, including a comeback win against Georgia Tech at home the other night.

Two of Notre Dame's ACC foes have a bye the week before facing the Irish: Pittsburgh and Syracuse. N.C. State faces FCS-level Campbell as a prelude to its trip to South Bend, while Boston College plays at Louisville, and Stanford hosts archrival California the week before facing Notre Dame.

It seems like Notre Dame and Virginia made a transfer trade this cycle, each of the teams receiving a wide receiver in return. The Irish already got their part over a month ago, as Malachi Fields committed towards the end of December.
