Notre Dame men’s basketball notched their first back-to-back conference wins of the season with a 58-55 win over the Georgia Tech Yellow Jckets. Following Saturday’s victory over Virginia Tech, Wednesday night’s win over the Yellow Jackets (10-15, 3-11 ACC) marked the first time the Irish (9-16, 4-10 ACC) have defeated consecutive ACC opponents since beating Syracuse and Georgia Tech on Feb. 23 and 26, 2022, respectively.
It was a back-and-forth game throughout, featuring five ties and nine lead changes. As per usual, Notre Dame’s offense was a collective effort — in the sense that freshman point guard Markus Burton can’t possibly score every point for an offense that seemingly wants him to do so.
