Seed No. 5
March 14th, 2005 | by john |Georgia Tech has been selected as the #5 seed in the Albuquerque regionals.
The selection committee recognized the talent our players showed against UNC and Duke this weekend.
I was sad to see the clock running down and none of our 3-pt attempts falling through for the tie… now I felt how McCants felt when his 3 didn’t go in for the tie.
Tech was trailing Duke throughout the entire game but they came back within the last few minutes of the game to show what they were made of…
Yes, Tech’s shots just weren’t falling… but the most amazing part of the game is that Duke’s shots WERE falling in and Tech’s defense maintained its integrity to keep Duke’s offense checked. I was very proud of that fact – it’s a fact that paved Tech’s road to the National title game last year.
Paul Hewitt was right; Tech’s victory over UNC was most definitely not an upset just as Tech’s loss to Duke wasn’t a blow out as some would have expected before this past Friday.
Congratulations to Duke on the ACC Tournament championship and the #1 seed.
Congratulations to UNC on the ACC regular season championship and the #1 seed.
NCAA tourney’s going to be crazy this year
March Madness… no other phrase for it!
