Florida State (15-14, 9-9) traveled to Atlanta to face a Georgia Tech (13-16, 6-12) team they beat by double-digits in January and still harboring hopes of securing one of the four double-byes in this month’s ACC Tournament. Those hopes went up in smoke during an 85-76 loss, as the Seminoles gave up 1.11 points per possession to a Yellow Jackets squad that had been held below 1.0 point per possession in 5 of their previous 6 games. This defensive “effort” by FSU continues a month long trend in which the ‘Noles, once known for their “Junkyard D,” had the 183rd ranked defense in February.
FSU’s porous defense, weak rebounding lead to loss at Georgia Tech. What does it mean for postseason play and how did we get here?
