Wow. Great win for the kids, Pastner and the program. I undersold their heart and their ability to force Carolina to take threes (never a Heel strong point). Big smile today

Josh is my player of the game. He was huge and digging down for their bigs and cutters plus blocking out. The guards all did it I just saw him more

I would love to see the stats on 5050 balls and defensive help. UNc never matched our energy.

I am not sure he has the right to say this today. He needs to eat that crow a few days and then change his story line to "how strong is the ACC when the "worst power-five roster" in all of college basketball can beat UNC?" That is the risk of exaggeration as prediction, you end up losing credibility and looking like a fool.

There going to come out fired up tomorrow...Moore is an absolute gamer and will have them believing they can beat UNC...Okogie will be in attack mode,hoping his aggressive nature along with Heaths and Moore's ability to penetrate can get Q and TJ going on some nice kick outs.
The bottom line will be if Ben can stay out of foul trouble going up against Hicks and Meeks,there going to bang and be his biggest challenge this far...I think he'll step up and play well.AD and Obongda need to come alive and rebound.I think our best bet is to stick to the original script...play up tempo heavy ball movement attacking style with Ben as the focal point offensively....play aggressive defensively and win the 50/50's.This could be a breakout game for Okogie...think he'll have no fear and go for 20+

Gonna be a long day
Long day for UNC...Okogie best pure talent on the floor...underrated PG play out of Moore and Heath and high energy disciplined play...kudos to the players and coaches!!! Not really surprised...thought we would COMPETE!!!!!!

This wasn't one of the games I even saw us being in. Wow. Hoping we can keep this up. Also hoping potential recruits saw this and jump on board.

Stephens has 6 3's, Jackson has 30 points and we win...mark it down
BOOM got the players wrong but knew we would win the game!!!! I was there along with about 200 other tech fans (no exaggeration) and tech pulled it out with less talent, no Buzz, and no band. Imagine how much we would have won by if Stephens could hit a shot. And Okogie was a beast!! Did anybody there or on TV hear me chanting "MVP" when he was shooting the few final free throws?? Haha I got the GT bench to look up at the 5 of us Georgia Tech fans in the section yelling.
