UNC - GT game on ESPNU

[UConnChapette]

Tech is keeping it fairly close. Score at the half: UNC leads 34 - 29.

Maybe it is the blinding flourescent pink shoes the Pink Jackets - er Yellow Jackets - are wearing???

Sorry attendance...while UConn's attendance has been in decline over the past years, the only time I expect to see Gampel as empty as the McCamish Pavilion is today is when fans are snowed in and can't get there. However I expect Gampel will still have more for attendance than Tech. Atlantians (Atlantans?) have no such excuses!

Gosh, North Carolina is horrible, win or lose.

I'm liking the girl from Sweden on Georgia Tech (#10). Could see a good future for her. Really athletic for a 6'4 woman

Could be a good finish in this one...Tech with one point lead, but just fouled to put Ruffin Pratt on the line. 44.7 left...makes the first to tie it, then the second to put NC up by one.

Darn it Tech

Reminded me a little of the end of the LSU/Tenn game last week.
LSU and Georgia Tech just not enough poise to win at the end in games that they were ahead late.

Atlanta is terrible sports town. A few years ago one of their teams made the playoffs (Braves I think) and they couldn't even sellout the games.

UNC is really a lucky team..... but they do find a way to win the close games down the stretch......
