ATLANTA — Georgia Tech’s first win over a top-five team in six years could be evidence that this season’s team can win close games.
First, coach Brian Gregory wants to see how his Yellow Jackets follow up Saturday’s upset of then-No. 4 Virginia.
The Yellow Jackets (11-5, 1-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) visit Notre Dame on Wednesday.
The 68-64 win over Virginia was Georgia Tech’s first over a top-five ranked team since beating No. 5 Duke in January 2010.
Beating a highly ranked team was important. Winning a close game may have meant just as much considering the team’s struggles last season, when it finished 12-19 overall and 3-15 in the conference.
