The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and the Florida State Seminoles meet Saturday in college basketball action from Greensboro Coliseum. 

Coming into this ACC Tournament matchup, Georgia Tech enters at 16-8 so far. The Yellow Jackets had a tourney game versus Virginia cancelled Friday and thus move on to the next round. As for Florida State, they’re sitting at 16-5 this year. The Seminoles took out North Carolina in tourney on Friday.

Georgia Tech got off to a pretty solid 7-3 start over their first 10 games this year. The Jackets stumbled in January and early February however, losing five of their next seven. Since then, Georgia Tech has won seven games in a row, most recently over Miami on Thursday. 

In the Thursday tournament win over the Hurricanes, Georgia Tech was down 33-29 at the half but came back from there in a 70-66 result. Leading the way for the Jackets was Jordan Usher with 15 points, two rebounds and two assists in 31 minutes on the floor. 

Over on the Florida State side, they’ve been consistent this season and haven’t lost consecutive games thus far. The Seminoles managed a nice tournament win over North Carolina in their last outing 69-66. 

In the victory Friday over the Tar Heels, Florida State had a 35-24 lead at the break and held on for the 69-66 result. Leading the way was Balsa Koprivica with a double-double on 17 points with 11 rebounds, two assists and four blocks. 

The Seminoles are 0-4-1 ATS in their last five Saturday games and 11-5-3 ATS in their last 19 neutral-site games. The over is 18-7-1 in FSU’s last 26 Saturday games and 11-3-1 in their last 15 overall.
Meanwhile, the Jackets are 5-1 ATS in their last six Saturday games and 7-1 ATS in their last eight overall. The over is 4-0-1 in Georgia Tech’s last five Saturday games as well. 

PICK: I’m going to roll with Georgia Tech. The Friday tournament game cancellation versus Virginia was unfortunate; it would have been a great matchup. The Jackets have been scoring well over this current winning streak, and likely would have given the Cavaliers a fight the whole way. In any case, Georgia Tech has hit 71 points or more in seven of their last eight games. If they can keep that offensive momentum going I think they’ll be in line for a cover. Should be a really fun game to watch.
