Georgia Tech Basketball vs Virginia: How to Watch, Listen, Livestream, and Betting Odds

Can Georgia Tech find a way to beat Virginia at home?

Fresh off of a win vs Clemson, Georgia Tech is back at home today to face Virginia, a team that was thought to be a contender in the conference. 

The Yellow Jackets had to outlast the Tigers on the road in double overtime this week and it was a huge win for Damon Stoudamire and his team. They have been knocking on the door of winning, but unable to finish in close games. Is the win over Clemson the start of something or just do the Yellow Jackets still have a long way to go?

Virginia (12-5, 3-3 ACC), which had been in the national top 25 during November and December, had dropped four of six games before downing Virginia Tech, 65-57, at home Wednesday night. The Cavaliers have lost all four of their road games this season, including their last three ACC road trips to Notre Dame, NC State, and Wake Forest.

After some tough outings to start the year, Georgia Tech's offense has started to turn the corner. 

Georgia Tech has averaged 78.3 points per game and has connected on 47.8 percent of its field goal tries in ACC play, which ranks No. 2 and No. 1, respectively, in those categories.

With a season-high 20 points at Clemson, Naithan George became the seventh Tech player to score 20 points this season, joining Kyle Sturdivant, Deebo Coleman, Tafara Gapare, Kowacie Reeves, Jr., Baye Ndongo and Miles Kelly. It is only the second time that as many as seven different Yellow Jackets have scored 20-plus in a game during a season (2007-08).

Three Tech players are averaging 13.7 points or better on ACC play - Miles Kelly (17.2), Baye Ndongo (15.3), and Kowacie Reeves, Jr. (13.7). Those three players have combined to hit 51.0 percent of their shots from the floor (106-208) and 44.7 percent from three-point range (38-of-85). They have accounted for 58.9 percent of the Yellow Jackets’ points in ACC games.

Georgia Tech has not had a lot of success against the Cavaliers in recent years. 

Virginia has won the last 10 games in the series, and 18 of the last 20 meetings to move ahead 47-40 in the all-time series, which dates back to 1947. The Cavaliers won the only meeting between the two teams in the 2022-23 season, 74-56 on Dec. 31. Tech’s last win over UVA occurred Feb. 9, 2016, in Atlanta (68-64).
