The NC State men's basketball team will host Michigan in the 2015 ACC/Big Ten Challenge on Tuesday, Dec. 1 at PNC Arena.
NC State and Michigan have split six previous all-time meetings in the series, which dates back to 1949.
Michigan posted a 16-16 record (8-10 Big Ten) last season and returns each of its top six scorers, led by Caris Levert (14.9 ppg), Zak Irvin (14.3 ppg) and Derrick Walton, Jr. (10.7 ppg).
All 14 games of the Challenge will be televised on an ESPN network and will be available via WatchESPN.
