Postgame Notes
Team Notes

• Georgia Tech moved to 7-4 on the season. Its seven wins are its most regular-season wins since 2018 and tied for its second-most regular-season wins in the last 10 seasons (7 in 2018 and 8 in 2016).
• Georgia Tech clinched an above-.500 season, which gives it back-to-back winning seasons for the first time since 2013 (7-6) and 2014 (11-3).
• Georgia Tech wrapped up Atlantic Coast Conference play with a 5-3 conference record, which gives it back-to-back winning records in ACC action for the first time since 2013 (5-3) and 2014 (6-2).
• Georgia Tech closed out a perfect 5-0 campaign at Bobby Dodd Stadium at Hyundai Field, which is the Yellow Jackets’ 16th undefeated, untied season at Bobby Dodd Stadium since it opened in 1913. It is also the Yellow Jackets’ first perfect season at Bobby Dodd since 1999 and only its third since 1966 (1990 and ’99).
• Georgia Tech moved to 16-13 in Thursday night home games since joining the ACC in 1983, and 18-22 in all Thursday night games since it joined the conference in ’83.
• Georgia Tech moved to 21-11 all-time against NC State, including a 12-4 record against the Wolfpack at home.
• The win was Georgia Tech’s fourth in the last five games against NC State and 14th in its last 18 matchups with the Wolfpack.
• Georgia Tech’s three takeaways were a season high (prev.: 2 at North Carolina – Oct. 12).
• Georgia Tech’s three interceptions were its most in a game since it intercepted three passes at No. 17 Miami (Fla.) on Oct. 7, 2023.
• For the second-straight game, Georgia Tech utilized a two-quarterback system with r-Jr. starterHaynes King and true Fr. Aaron Philo.
• Georgia Tech also dominated time of possession for the second-straight game, finishing with 33:20 of possession time to NC State’s 26:40. NC State came into the game ranked 27th nationally in average time of possession (31:41). In its 28-23 win over No. 4 Miami (Fla.) on Nov. 9, Georgia Tech held a 34:39-25:11 advantage in time of possession against a Miami team that led the nation in average possession time going into the game (34:02).
• Georgia Tech’s 21-yard interception return for a touchdown in the first quarter by r-So.E.J. Lightsey was the Yellow Jackets’ first non-offensive touchdown since DBLaMiles Brooks returned an interception 37 yards for a score vs. Virginia on Oct. 20, 2022 – which was Tech’s last Thursday night game.

Individual Notes

• True Fr. QB Aaron Philo completed 19-of-33 passes for a career-high 265 yards (prev.: 184 at Virginia Tech – Oct. 26).
• So. WR Eric Singleton, Jr. had five receptions for 106 yards. It was Singleton’s second 100-yard receiving game of the season (prev.: 102 vs. VMI – Sept. 14) and third of his career.
• r-Fr. WR Bailey Stockton’s five receptions set a career high (prev.: 2, 3X, last vs. Notre Dame – Oct. 19).
• Sr. TE Avery Boyd’s four receptions matched/set a career high (prev.: 4, 2X, last at Syracuse – Sept. 7).
• r-Jr. WR Malik Rutherford had one reception before leaving the game due to injury in the first quarter, extending his streak of consecutive games with a reception to 27, which moves him into a tie for the sixth-longest streak in Georgia Tech history with Robert Lavette (1981-83). Rutherford’s 27-straight games with a reception is the fourth-longest current streak in the ACC.
• r-So. LB E.J. Lightsey’s 21-yard interception return for a touchdown in the first quarter was the first interception and first touchdown of his collegiate career.
• r-Jr. DL Romello Height’s interception in the fourth quarter was the first of his collegiate career.
• Sr. LB Trenilyas Tatum’s interception in the second quarter was the first of his career.
• r-So. PK Aidan Birr’s three made field goals (44, 41 and 45 yards) were a season high (prev.: 2 at North Carolina – Oct. 12 and at Virginia Tech – Oct. 26) and matched a career high (3 – three times last season).

Just went 91 yards for a TD against Lowndes County. On a slant pattern. Untouched.

Would be nice to flip him from Louisville

Going to watch the full replay of last night's game tonight, but I'm already wondering:

Just HOW beat up ARE we going into the game in the cesspool?

Examples:

1. Saw Mackenny in the game at LT last night. Has he played much all year? Did he play as part of rotation, or do we have an injury / depth issue now at LT?
2. Rutherford - think he stayed on the sideline, but didn't return. Is he hurt more seriously than we know?
3. Is Burrell full speed?
4. Is Daniels full speed?
5. If Haynes King could throw a 20 yard wheel route, then he could exploit 8 guys in the box when he plays. If he can't, then I'm not sure we can run the ball with him in the game.

From last night's participation chart, and knowing who was in the game at the end, do we have any clues about who may be too "handicapped" to help us against the dwags (sic) next week?

We’re going to build a basketball culture and help generate some scoring runs for the good guys. Post below and I will DM you in a few hours. This starts tomorrow against Top 25 Cincinnati btw.

What a gusty win for our program! Hoping to get some insights from the Coach’s Couch segment this week on what happened on D when seemingly the entire field opened up for their QB to run….

Didn’t play, saw he threw his helmet and his gloves after some jawing with Norval (RB coach) in the 3rd quarter. He then looked like he was pitching a fit and players were having to tell him to chill as he continued to yell at Norval who was sitting in a chair in front of the running backs.
Wasn’t a great look, wouldn’t be surprised if you don’t see him again. Tough break for him with how this years gone but can’t act like that on the sideline.

GET UP IT'S GAMEDAY!!!!!!

Quite a list to go through. Took longer than I expected to get it up on the site after I got it a little bit ago. Pretty big day for recruiting for Georgia Tech to say the least. Would be ideal to look good on the field and have a solid atmosphere.

Yo, if anyone snagged this towel they gave out and have an extra, we can make a deal. I need one for obvious reasons if you know me.

To Hell With Georgia


Go Jackets!
Piss on em

I see where 4 of their top 7 commits (plus 2 others) are from the state of GA:

GT was/is involved with all 4 to some extent.

Any chance for a 404 Takeover style clean sweep?

I put the O/U at 38,000. I expect another strong showing by the students, but with NCSU having a disappointing season their fans won’t show. On the GT side there will be very few walk up sales as the largely flaccid GT fan base is discouraged by the cold temps, winds and the allure of sipping wine on the couch while flipping channels between the game & holiday Hallmark movies.

As was hinted at by Garcia yesterday.
