After the ACC Tipoff last week, the results from the Official 2024-25 ACC Men’s Basketball Preseason Poll (voted on by members of the media) are out, and NC State is picked to finish 8th.

For perspective, the Wolfpack was picked to finish 7th last year, and ended up finishing 10th at the end of the regular season, before they went on to go on a miraculous run, winning their first ACC Tournament since 1987.
