Georgia Tech shows “maturity” in resume win over Virginia Tech

After the gut-wrenching loss to Clemson, Georgia Tech sat 9-8 (6-6) with the season teetering on total collapse. The Jackets needed a 5-1 finish to get them to 14-9 (11-7).

Boeheim spared Cameron Crazies but not a loss at Duke

Hurt comparisons from Bennett and Bilas take flight; Heels empty bench

It’s late February. That means Duke and North Carolina should be peaking for the final stretch leading to the post-season. Except this year it’s about playing their best basketball to earn a bid – not at a No. 1 seed. Duke (10-8, 8-6 ACC) celebrated like it had won an ACC Tournament or NCAA regional …
