Georgia Tech’s home-and-home partners for the 2014-15 basketball season will be Clemson, North Carolina, Notre Dame and Wake Forest. The ACC released the rotation for the next two seasons Tuesday morning.
Clemson and Notre Dame are Tech’s two permanent partners for home-and-homes.
Tech will play home games against Boston College, Florida State, Louisville, N.C. State and Syracuse. It will go on the road to play Duke, Miami, Pittsburgh, Virginia and Virginia Tech.
Syracuse will play its first game ever on Tech’s campus. Tech will play its first game at Pittsburgh since Feb. 1970. Louisville has not played a game on Tech’s campus since Feb. 1991. It played four games later in the 90’s against Tech in the Georgia Dome in holiday tournament games.
A home schedule with powerhouses Louisville, North Carolina and Syracuse is substantial. N.C. State, another NCAA tournament team from this past season, also is part of the mix.
This past season, Tech’s home-and-home opponents aside from Clemson and Notre Dame were Boston College and Duke. It played home games against Miami, North Carolina, Pittsburgh, Virginia and Virginia Tech and road games at Florida State, Maryland, N.C. State, Syracuse and Wake Forest.
Tech’s home-and-home partners for 2015-16 will be Clemson, Louisville, Notre Dame and Pittsburgh, which would figure to be a considerable upgrade from the upcoming season.
Home games will be against Duke, Miami, Virginia, Virginia Tech and Wake Forest. Road games will be against Boston College, Florida State, North Carolina, N.C. State and Syracuse.
The upcoming schedule begins a 12-year rotation in which teams that are not permanent partners will begin a cycle in which they will play five seasons at home only, five years on the road only and two years home-and-home.
The Tech ticket office will begin taking deposits for season tickets for the upcoming season at 10 a.m. Wednesday. Pricing and other information will be released in coming weeks, and renewal begins in June.
