As the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets prepare to host the Clemson Tigers at Hank McCamish Pavilion, fans are eager for what promises to be an electrifying encounter. The Yellow Jackets have been showing a mixed bag of performances in their recent outings, but there are positive trends that suggest they could take control of the upcoming game.

In their last three games, Georgia Tech has consistently hit above 70 points, showcasing their offensive capabilities. Their most recent game saw them score 82 points in an overtime thriller against Penn State Nittany Lions. This high-scoring affair was supported by a strong assist-to-turnover ratio of nearly one and a half and a rebounding total that eclipsed 50.

The team's shooting from inside the paint has been particularly impressive, with two-point field goal percentages hovering around fifty-five percent in their overtime victory. However, they will need to tighten up on turnovers; despite winning against Penn State, they gave up possession seventeen times.

Defensively, Georgia Tech has shown prowess as well; blocks have been consistent across games with five each in two out of three matches. Yet it's clear that maintaining ball security and maximizing possessions will be key factors if they wish to capitalize on home-court advantage against Clemson.

The venue itself may play into Georgia Tech's hands; playing at home in Atlanta provides not only familiar surroundings but also the support of the home crowd which can often prove influential.
