Georgia Tech led at halftime 34-33 in a close, physical half. Coming out of halftime, the Bulldogs jumped to a 6 point lead in a minute and a half and the Jackets were never able to make it back. After a respectable first half, nothing went right for them in the second half.
The first problem was offense. They could not get a shot to fall in the second half, scoring only 27 points in the entire second half. Pretty much the only player who looked decent offensively was Adam Smith who hit three three-pointers early in the half and then disappeared with the rest of the team.
