Ty Outlaw admitted that he was excited about the prospect of playing Georgia Tech.

But Outlaw's reasoning wasn't because of the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets championship rings sub-.500 record or their five-game losing streak. Instead, he cited a more tactical reason.

"I love it when they play zone," Outlaw said.

Outlaw did his share of damage against Georgia Tech's zone defense, scoring a season-high 20 points, as No. 22 Virginia Tech defeated the Yellow Jackets 76-68 on Wednesday night.

Outlaw, who entered the game hitting nearly 50 percent of his 3-point attempts, hit six 3-pointers for the Virginia Tech Hokies championship rings for sale (19-5, 8-4 ACC), who rallied from a three-point halftime deficit and snapped a two-game losing streak -- their first losing streak of the season.

Kerry Blackshear Jr. and Nickeil Alexander-Walker each scored 16 points for the Hokies, who swept the season series and notched their sixth straight win over Georgia Tech (11-14, 3-9).

"Ginormous," Virginia Tech head coach Buzz Williams said of the win. "I thought today was as big a game as we've played since we've lived here. I guess as a coach you hope that, at Valentine's Day, you're saying those sorts of things. I think this is the fastest we've gotten to 19 wins, and I think this is the fastest we've gotten to eight wins in the ACC championship rings. The margin is invisible, and we've got a lot of work to do."

Michael Devoe paced the Yellow Jackets with 22 points championship rings for sale.

After hitting just five 3-pointers in winning an ugly game in Atlanta on Jan. 9, Virginia Tech hit 13 in the victory. The Hokies shot just 34.6 percent in the first half (9 of 26), but heated up behind Outlaw and Blackshear in the second half, shooting 59.3 percent (16 of 27) NCAA championship rings.

The Hokies trailed 35-30 early in the second half, but a 3-pointer by Outlaw with 18:04 remaining arguably turned out to be the biggest shot of the game. It started a 17-2 run in which Virginia Tech scored on six of seven possessions to take the lead for good. Georgia Tech missed three shots and turned the ball over twice in that span cheap University/College Rings championship rings.

"I can read it a little better than man," Outlaw said of facing a zone defense. "To me, it's a little slower pace and because I'm a shooter and some of my teammates are more playmakers than me, I know that I'll be on the receiving end of a lot of plays, so yeah, I do like zones."

The Yellow Jackets cut the lead to 49-48 on a 3-pointer by Devoe with 8:56 left, but the Hokies answered, with Blackshear converting a three-point play on the ensuing possession. Blackshear later added a free throw and Outlaw hit another big shot, connecting on a 3-pointer in a 7-0 run, and the Hokies never looked back custom University/College Rings championship rings.

"We're going to break through at some point," Georgia Tech coach Josh Pastner said. "I don't know when it is, but we are going to break through . talking about this season. We're getting better. We're getting closer to it. We've just got to keep staying the course."
