Against Georgia Tech, despite putting up a strong fight and scoring 62 points with a decent field goal percentage of 40 percent and making six out of twenty-two three-point attempts, they were unable to secure victory. Their fast break points stood out at eighteen but weren't enough to overcome Georgia Tech's offense.

In contrast, during their visit to North Carolina State's Reynolds Coliseum, the Cavaliers managed to score 68 points with an exceptional field goal percentage of 53 percent and excelled from beyond the arc by hitting ten out of twenty-one three-pointers. Despite this high efficiency in shooting and scoring more effectively inside than in previous games with 28 paint points, turnovers proved costly as they handed over possession nineteen times leading to a loss.
