The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets stunned the sports world Saturday after defeating 10th-ranked Florida State 24-21 in Dublin, Ireland. Brent Key's team was more physical and dominated both lines of scrimmage in the contest. Can they replicate that model in a tough ACC schedule?
Georgia Tech did not have high national expectations entering the season. Some sportsbooks had their season win total as low as 4.5 heading into Week 0. That number will certainly change after their upset victory, but just how much is the question? No one should think Tech is now a title contender, but they certainly can compete in their conference.
A tough remaining schedule includes matchups versus Miami, Notre Dame, and Georgia among others. Those contests will be a true test of character and program, but tests that are not insurmountable after their win over Florida State.
