If you ask Josh Pastner, Georgia Tech’s path to the NCAA Tournament is not as murky as it may appear. As damaging as the loss to NC State was, the head man still feels that a 2-1 finish to the season — which would land Tech at 9 conference wins — should be more than enough to justify a spot in the big dance, particularly if Tech can also pull out a win or two in the ACC Tournament. The RPI is severely hurt at this point given the ugly out-of-conference defeats and the most recent loss, but the good news is that the tournament pool is determined by humans and humans have famously short memories.
