The 2025 NCAA Division I men’s basketball season will bring another exciting slate of Atlantic Coast Conference matchups. Georgia Tech and Duke are set to meet once in the regular season, with the Yellow Jackets opening conference play on New Year’s Eve afternoon at Cameron Indoor Stadium. The game will be broadcast on the ACC Network as part of Tech’s 12-game conference television schedule.
Head basketball Coach Stoudamire made the team mission clear: “Our goal is to make the NCAA Tournament.” Georgia Tech finished last season 14–18, ranking third from the bottom of the ACC ahead of only Miami and Louisville.
Duke swept last year’s meetings. Winning 82–56 in December and 78–70 in the ACC Tournament. This season. The Yellow Jackets look to flip the script under third-year head coach Damon Stoudamire. Who continues to push for progress in his rebuilding plan, to make the program relevant again.
