For The 404

[Soapy]

Always thought Georgia Tech was a sleeping giant with the location and recruiting base. Turn Gibbs into a stud

Gibbs is one of the most fun backs I've ever used actually... at least in the time I spent with him in practice mode. Just a good balanced skillset.

I'm so glad he's out of the ACC, that boy was gonna be a problem

Nowhere To Go But Up: No.1 Georgia Routs Georgia Tech 63-7
It was an ugly opener for Georgia Tech at home, but nothing shocking as No.1 Georgia trounced the Yellow Jackets for over 700 total yards and even blocked a punt.

Tale Of The Tape
▶ First Downs
Georgia won the first downs battle 22-to-11, proving just how overmatched the Yellow Jackets were on both sides of the ball.

▶ Third Down Conversions
Georgia: 7-of-8 (87%), Georgia Tech: 3-of-16 (18%), again just goes to show the discrepancy in talent between these two in-state rivals.

Offense Flounders As Georgia Tech Falls Victim To Troy, 27-12
It was an even match on paper between these two lowly-ranked squads, in fact, these teams were so bad that the game didn't even provide commentary on the broadcast.

Tale Of The Tape
▶ Turnovers
Troy had just one turnover, compared to Georgia Tech's three. Overall, GT put the rock on the floor four times, but luckily recovered two of them.

▶ Redzone-TD-FG Conversions
Troy: 4-3-1 (100%), Georgia Tech: 3-1-0 (33%), proving that this game was really close, but GT just couldn't put the exclamation point on multiple opportunities.
