Yellow Jackets Quietly on the Bubble

One team that is quietly fully cementing itself on the Bubble is the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets.

Georgia Tech quietly went 2-0 this week to move to 13-8 overall and 9-6 in the ACC. The Yellow Jackets went on the road to defeat #16 Virginia Tech 69-53, as well as finishing the week by defeating Syracuse 84-77.

Georgia Tech was in the Next Four Out group on the Bubble in the latest update from ESPN’s Joe Lunardi, but owns some impressive victories on their resume. Looking ahead, their next game vs Duke looks like a massive opportunity for both teams.
