Georgia Tech is playing really bad basketball. They’ve now lost 7 straight games and have barely looked competitive in most of those games. They really need to turn it around in the final five games for a respectable finish.
On the other side, Pitt is facing a similar slide. After starting 2-2 in the ACC, they have now lost 9 straight games. Unlike the Yellow Jackets, there have been some close losses (like a double overtime loss to Wake Forest and two 3-point losses to NC State and VT). Jeff Capel’s first ACC season with the Panthers started out surprisingly well, but the team has played down to their expectations since then.
