ATLANTA, Jan. 19 (UPI) -- Zachery Peacock's clutch free throws with 3.2 seconds to go Tuesday gave No. 18 Georgia Tech a 66-64 win over No. 16 Clemson.

Georgia Tech got the ball with 9.2 seconds to go and the game tied 64-64. Following a Yellow Jackets timeout, Trevor Booker was called for a reach-in foul on Peacock, who promptly sank both foul shots.

Time ran out after Clemson couldn't control a long inbounds pass.

The Yellow Jackets (14-4, 3-2 ACC) got 17 points and 14 rebounds from Derrick Favors, while Gani Lawal chipped in 16 points and 10 boards.

Booker paced Clemson (15-4, 3-2 ACC) with 19 points and nine rebounds, while Demontez Stitt and Tanner Smith each contributed 10 points in the Tigers' loss.
