What you need to know
We have another exciting ACC game on the schedule as the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Va. Tech Hokies are scheduled to tip off at 7 p.m. ET Wednesday at McCamish Pavilion. The Yellow Jackets limp into the game after a four-game losing streak.
Last Saturday, Georgia Tech couldn’t handle Florida State and fell 91-78.
Despite their loss, Georgia Tech saw several players rise to the challenge and make remarkable plays. Duncan Powell, who had 20 points plus six rebounds, was perhaps the best of all. Powell struggled to find his feet against Clemson last Tuesday, so this was a step in the right direction. Another player who made the difference was Lance Terry, who scored 23 points.
Meanwhile, Go. Tech also suffered a loss in its last game, but this one was against Wake Forest by a score of 72-63.
The defeat of Va. Tech performed despite a quality game from Tyler Johnson, who nearly dropped a double-double with nine points and ten rebounds. Johnson struggled to find his footing against North Carolina State on Wednesday, so this was a nice turnaround.
Georgia Tech’s loss dropped its record to 8-11. As for Va. Tech, their loss ended a four-game home winning streak and dropped them to 8-10.
Going forward, Georgia Tech is the favorite as experts expect them to win by 5.5 points. This contest may not be the best time to bet against the spread since they have let bettors down the last four times they have played.
Georgia Tech may still be hurting after the devastating 91-67 loss to Va. Tech in its previous game in January 2024. Will Georgia Tech have better luck at home than on the road?
