Georgia Tech was losing this game almost the entire time. Howard was in control, but some foul outs and GT making the plays late let the Yellow Jackets escape this game with the win.
The first half was close basically the whole time. Howard went on a mini-run late to get their lead to 6. Then they started the second half with another mini-run to take a 14-point lead. Things at this point were looking hairy. Instead GT went on a 16-2 run to tie it back up. Now it seemed like Howard might fold. They had just given up a big run and were running a tight rotation.
