Who’s Playing
Georgia Tech @ Florida State
Regular Season Records: Georgia Tech 14-17; Florida State 9-22
What to Know
The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Florida State Seminoles are set to clash at 2 p.m. ET March 7 at Greensboro Coliseum in the first round of the Atlantic Coast Conference Tourney. Georgia Tech will be strutting in after a win while the Seminoles will be stumbling in from a loss.
Georgia Tech beat the Boston College Eagles 73-65 this past Saturday. The Yellow Jackets’ guard Miles Kelly filled up the stat sheet, shooting 5-for-11 from beyond the arc and finishing with 21 points.
Meanwhile, a victory for FSU just wasn’t in the stars this past Saturday as the team never even grasped a temporary lead. Their painful 82-60 defeat to the Virginia Tech Hokies might stick with them for a while. FSU was surely aware of their 10-point disadvantage in the point spread, but the foreknowledge did nothing to prevent the result. Guard Matthew Cleveland wasn’t much of a difference maker for FSU; Cleveland finished with ten points on 5-for-17 shooting and turned the ball over five times in his 33 minutes on the court.
Barring any buzzer beaters, the Yellow Jackets are expected to win a tight contest Tuesday. They might be worth taking a chance on against the spread as they are currently on a four-game streak of ATS wins.
When the two teams last met earlier in the regular season, Georgia Tech lost to the Seminoles on the road by a decisive 75-64 margin. Can Georgia Tech avenge their loss, or is history doomed to repeat itself? We’ll soon find out.
