PREGAME READING
What to Watch For – Syracuse (10-4, 1-0)
1. The Orange looks to stay perfect in ACC play when it faces the Yellow Jackets. Syracuse opened the league portion of its schedule with a 68-66 win at Virginia Tech. Redshirt junior Trevor Cooney led a group of four members of the Orange to reach double figures in scoring with 18 points. A victory in Atlanta would be SU's fifth straight, which would be its longest winning streak of the season.
2. Sophomore Tyler Roberson tied his career high with 17 rebounds against the Hokies. He also tallied 11 points for his third double-double of the season. Roberson now ranks 21st in the ACC in rebounding (6.3 rpg.) and ninth in offensive rebounds (2.73).
3. Redshirt junior Trevor Cooney has reached double figures in scoring in six consecutive games. During that stretch, he is averaging 18.3 points per contest. Cooney ranks 20th in scoring in the ACC (13.5 ppg.) and third in three-point field goals made (2.36).

What to Watch For – Georgia Tech (9-4, 0-1)
1. The Yellow Jackets lost to national-ranked Notre Dame, 83-76, in double overtime in their ACC opener on Saturday and are now 9-4 overall.
2. Georgia Tech ranks among the nation's best in rebounding margin, averaging 11 more rebounds per game than its opponent. Charles Mitchell is the team's leading rebounder, averaging 7.8 per game. He is one of two players who average double figures in scoring for the Yellow Jackets. Marcus George-Hunt leads the way with a 13.5 points per game average, while Mitchell is right behind, contributing 10.6 points per game.
