ACC basketball teams get their holiday wishes granted—or denied—as Jackson Holzer and Kenton Gibbs hand out the ultimate Christmas presents, from Final Four dreams for the Duke Blue Devils to memory wipes for Clemson after a shocking loss to Georgetown. Which ACC squads find themselves on the nice list with NCAA tournament appearances, and who’s stuck with a lump of coal or even just a rock? The hosts’ creative gifts spotlight team needs like clutch free throw shooters for Duke and defensive help for SMU, while programs like Virginia Tech and Stanford get the spotlight for their under-the-radar records.

Loaded with ACC hoops insights, the episode features sharp takes on Louisville’s “team-bonding” California trip, Syracuse’s high-stakes March, and Boston College’s years-long postseason drought. Can Wake Forest, Cal, and NC State break through to tournament relevance? Jackson Holzer and Kenton Gibbs debate each team’s future and what it’ll take to turn Santa’s gifts into season-defining victories.
