Georgia Tech riding high after improbable and impressive win on Saturday

Despite all the injuries the North Carolina Tar Heels are experiencing, Saturday evening's result between Georgia Tech and North Carolina was truly shocking.

The Yellow Jackets started the game on a 27-4 run en route to a 96-83 victory over the Tar Heels.

Georgia Tech is in its third season under head coach Josh Pastner and the win on Saturday evened up the Yellow Jacket's record overall and in ACC play at 7-7 and 2-2 in the conference.

Pastner's team has challenged itself in playing major conference teams in non-conference play, losing to Georgia, Arkansas, and Kentucky, but defeating Nebraska.
