If there is one thing & one thing only, we should all have learned from watching this team throughout 2023-24, is to never worry about odds. In his ACC presser this week, CDS was asked about the Wake game in view of the home defeat they handed GT a month ago. In between bites of something he was eating (love watching him answer press questions), he said that game has already been flushed down the toilet. He just has to convince his players that all remnants from that game are gone.
In that game, Kelly, Reeves, Coleman & Sturdivant combined for 6 points. Can any defense in Division 1 achieve that even once, much less twice. Damari Monsanto led Wake in threes (3) that game and had 11 points off the bench. He was out with sore knees in their last game. ? tonight.
GT has more than doubled Quad 1/2 wins over last year’s team. Beating the only ACC team left undefeated (15-0) on their home court would make a nice addition to this season’s highlight reels, of which there are quite a few, considering the won/loss record.
Not predicting GT is going to win tonight, but will watch looking for another upset, knowing full well, it really could happen.
