Georgia Tech men’s basketball meets its second nationally ranked opponent in as many games on Saturday, traveling to No. 21/21 Louisville. The Yellow Jackets won the second half against No. 14 Virginia on Wednesday, but could not overcome a hot-shooting Cavaliers team from the first half. Jaeden Mustaf led a trio of Jackets in double-figures, matching his career-high in scoring with 18 points.

Louisville comes into the weekend contest off a 95-85 loss at SMU on Tuesday night which snapped a five-game win streak. Mikel Brown Jr., who was sidelined earlier this season due to injury, leads the Cardinals offensively, averaging 19.9 points per game in league play. Brown is one of four averaging double-figures against ACC opponents.

Saturday’s game will be broadcast live on The CW, Peachtree TV – Ch. 17 in Atlanta, and radio coverage will be available on the Georgia Tech Sports Network by Legends Sports and Tech’s flagship station, 680 the Fan (680AM/93.7 FM). Tech’s radio broadcast will also be available on the SiriusXM app and channel 386.
