Georgia Tech Set to Challenge Duke at Cameron Indoor

As the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets prepare to face off against the Duke Blue Devils, fans are eager to see if their team can carry forward the momentum from their recent performances. The Yellow Jackets have shown a mix of resilience and areas for improvement in their past few games.

In their latest encounter, Georgia Tech fell short against Notre Dame in an overtime thriller, scoring 68 points. Despite the loss, they demonstrated tenacity with 10 steals and a strong assist-to-turnover ratio of 2.5. However, shooting was an area of concern as they only converted 38 percent from the field and a mere 31 percent from beyond the arc.

Prior to that game, Georgia Tech put up an impressive offensive display against Boston College with an 87-point effort but ultimately conceded 95 points in a defensive lapse that saw them allow a high field goal percentage (56 percent) and three-point percentage (52 percent) to their opponents.

The game before Boston College showcased another facet of Georgia Tech's playstyle; after trailing at halftime, they mounted a remarkable comeback against Florida State by putting up 52 points in the second half alone. Yet again though, consistency was an issue as they allowed Florida State to shoot over fifty percent both from inside and outside the paint.

As they head into Cameron Indoor Stadium—a venue known for its intense atmosphere—it will be crucial for Georgia Tech to maintain focus on both ends of the court. The ability to convert on offense while tightening up defensively could be key factors in overcoming Duke's home-court advantage.

Fans can catch this exciting matchup scheduled for January 13th at Cameron Indoor Stadium in Durham at 5:00 PM Eastern Time on ACC Network channel 612.
