If it feels like it was just last week that Georgia Tech was preparing to play Pitt, well, that’s because it was. When the Yellow Jackets and Panthers tip off tonight in the first round of the ACC Tournament in Brooklyn, it will be only one week since the teams last faced off. On senior night in Atlanta, Tech took care of business, beating Pitt 61-52 behind Ben Lammers’s 20 points. The big man scored 15 of his 20 in the second half, fueling the Yellow Jackets’ comeback from a 3-point halftime deficit.
The week since these teams last played has not been great for either side.
