#16 Georgia Tech (4-0) vs Wake Forest (2-1) (12PM ET, ESPN)

[TrueOrange]

Good defense by GT

They’ve been staying disciplined and stopping them on the short field, yes. Which they definitely needed after the first half.

From what I can tell, I think their (Wake Forest’s) offense needs their QB to actually be perceived as a running threat each play…and as much as he’s hobbling between plays (and the fact that he hasn’t really run the ball in the second half since coming back with a knee brace on) Tech’s defense isn’t buying any chance of that happening at all.

Big 4th down play here

GT needs a 3 and out here

Chose to punt it. Give Wake Forest a longer field and presume that they can’t run out the last 4 minutes, especially backed up against their own endzone.

 

[vader]

That holding call helps

GT needs a 3 and out here

They have of time. They could allow a first down and still get the ball back with good field position with enough time for their offense.

 

[vader]

Huge catch there

 

[TrueOrange]

First down Wake Forest at their own 27 leading 23-20. At the 2 minute stoppage now.

 

[vader]

Wake Forest gonna rush the field if they beat Ga Tech. lol

 

[vader]

Huge no call there

 

[TrueOrange]

Wow what happened. GT jumped the snap but there was no call.

Wake’s QB just threw it expecting what should have been a penalty.

 

[TrueOrange]

That’s a free timeout for GT. 1:41 left in the game when they should have less than a minute at best.

That’s a game-determiner.

 

[vader]

Plenty of time

 

[TrueOrange]

Wake Forest gonna rush the field if they beat Ga Tech. lol

Maybe? It’s only been 3 years since they last beat a ranked team (2022).

That was game! Wake got screwed

 

[TrueOrange]

When you’re a Wake Forest fan I guess you just have to know that the universe wants you to lose every game…that’s an atrocious no call.

Wake even essentially forfeited their 3rd down play because that snap was enough for a first with the defender jumping offsides.

 

[TrueOrange]

That was game! Wake got screwed

1000% there by an awful (no) call.

 

[vader]

Big call here

 

[TrueOrange]

And here comes the FG attempt

 

[vader]

Nailed it

 

[TrueOrange]

And it’s good. Tied 23 all at the end of the game.

Wow, this should have been already over.

 

[TrueOrange]

On the schadenfraude side though, we’re probably going to get to see a student body - trying to copy what they saw in last night’s UVA/FSU game - in position and ready to storm the field likely left disappointed and having to file out of the stadium.

 

[TrueOrange]

And TD GT after like 5 plays.

 

[vader]

Holy crap!

Go for two!
