They have been super competitive with State and Wake but dropped both games. This should be a win for GT but it will be no cake walk.

GT will be a short favorite... Greg "Hoops" Peterson projects the line to be GT - 4.5

I suspect that you will see us compete from the opening tip tomorrow afternoon. They have an advantage in the paint, but we should be able to impose our will.

Like most of our games this year, it is going to come down to how well we shoot the ball. If we can make even a decent % of trey's, and we will come away with the W!

Available single game tickets are selling well for tomorrow. Let's hope students get back to campus early and show out with no homework or studying to distract them right now - GTAA has a nice promotion of a free white GT jersey for the first 500. Gonna be a fun one. Get out to McCamish if you can make it into Midtown!

I have other commitments today and won't get home until 6:00 or so, meaning I won't be joining the Chat today. Y'all make sure to do your magic to make us win.
I'll time compress the DVR and hopefully watch GT get the W.

Will get the AJC link posted shortly. Hoping the team comes out less complacent with more energy off the loss and a strong home crowd behind them.
This is a good game to bet on GT. Won't be close.

1. We'll be able to get fastbreak points. I'm thinking 12-16.
2. Miles will make more than 40% of the 3's he takes. I'm thinking he'll make 4-5 today
3. Team will make 10-12 from 3 overall, somewhere around 35% for the team
4. We'll be in single digit turnovers, will force 15+
5. George will have 10+ assists
6. Ndongo will have a double double with 6-7 blocks

Today will be a good day for GT basketball.

So today is the manic following the depression?

Hope so :)

So, you are unwilling to go out on a limb and make a more specific prediction?

I hope you are right and your post didn't jinx us!

BC is a solid team according to the metrics. They rank ahead of us in most polls/rankings (90 in KenPom and 82 in NET). Quinten Post is having a monster year and Harris and Zackery can light it up. My strategy would be to get Post in foul trouble by going at him with Ndongo and Claude.
