It didn’t seem like it at the time, but Virginia Basketball’s win at Georgia Tech was an important game this season. Prior to that, Virginia hadn’t done anything on the road. This team had been blown out by Memphis, Notre Dame, NC State, and Wake Forest, all on the road. Getting a W on the road helped this team build up an 8 game winning streak.
The Wahoos finish up the regular season with a home rematch against those same Yellow Jackets. Georgia Tech is probably playing their best basketball of the season, having won three in a row including road wins over Miami and Wake Forest.
