Clemson Tigers VS Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

In their most recent game against Syracuse Orange, the Yellow Jackets fell short with 63 points to Syracuse's 80.

However, they did manage to dish out an impressive number of assists (20) and kept up defensively with five blocks.


Looking back further, Georgia Tech faced North Carolina State Wolfpack and put up a fight but ultimately lost with 66 points to NC State's 78. The team showed strength in points off turnovers (22) but had difficulty from the free-throw line hitting only 42 percent of their shots.


Against Pittsburgh Panthers earlier in January, Georgia Tech scored 60 points compared to Pitt's 71. Despite this loss, there were positive takeaways; notably their three-point shooting percentage stood strong at around 41 percent.
