Well, the Cats get GT in the ACC/Big Ten Challenge for the second consecutive year and third time in five years. Last year, we all remember that the Jackets beat NU, 52-51, in Atlanta, in a game that foretold the offensive struggles that would plague the Cats for much of the season.

Several odd calls by the refs so far, maybe I need a rules refresher.
Lots of energy and they aren’t bothered by the press at this point.

Not sure what Collins is expecting from a lineup of Turner-Ash-Kopp-Nance-Benson, but at least they're treading water.
I want to see Ash in there with Pardon. Turner is a good scorer,but not a good passer or dribbler
What they lack in a true ball handler, they make up for athletically. Especially on defense. This team will be fun, especially once Taylor gets going.
Gaines follows a nice play with two bad ones, lots of unforced errors on both sides of the ball.
It's too bad -- he could easily be a breakout player this year if he just played within himself.
Taylor is taking poor shots. Gaines is off a bit. Sloppy play. Except Law is playing at an All Big Ten level. I'm telling you,we need to get Ash healthy asap for the BT! Too many turnovers.
I’m not sure why you have such a love affair for Ash.. but I don’t think he’s the answer.
GT has gone to the old standby offense of throwing themselves into the Cats and flailing. It’s working better than anything they’ve done so far.
Great team effort. Sweet Sixteen team now that Ash is healthy. We need all 9 guys. Benson played great. Law is the star!
Ash is not that great a player. Maybe he's not healthy but he doesn't have any offensive game at all. He's not the greatest Defender either. Law is definitely all Big Ten the way he's playing now. Wish Nance would do something more than just stand 25 feet away from the basket and pass the ball to someone else.
