ACC-Big Ten Challenge kicks off Monday with Iowa-UVA, ND-Illinois

The ACC-Big Ten Challenge gets underway tonight on the men’s side as Virginia hosts Iowa and Notre Dame heads to Illinois.

The 23rd edition of the ACC-Big Ten Challenge gets underway tonight as the Virginia Cavaliers host Iowa and Notre Dame heads to Illinois. Since 2009, the Big Ten has outright won seven of these events, with the ACC taking two and the two conferences tying thrice. Overall, the ACC leads the series 12-7-3, buoyed by a 10-0 start from 1999-2008.

With four Big Ten teams in the newly released AP Poll and only now-No. 1 Duke ranked for the ACC, it looks like it could be another easy win for the Big Ten.

Just two games are on tap for Monday night, so let’s take a look at what to expect.
