Show MoreBrent Key Weekly Press Conference Previewing North Carolina
This week, going into a conference game on the road, early kickoff vs a very talented UNC roster. They've had a tough stretch the last couple of weeks. Those are the scariest teams to go up against. It'll be a challenge, looking forward to it, going against coach Brown. One of the active winningest coaches in college football. I think he's sixth all time...279 career wins...just a legend of the game.

Show MoreGeorgia Tech Gives Duke Its First Loss
24-14 At Bobby Dodd Stadium
On the surface, some might have been surprised to see a 5-0 undefeated Duke team coming in to Bobby Dodd Stadium as a 10 point underdog to the 3-2 Yellow Jackets. But, a bit of research might explain that those wins were against a pretty soft schedule. The Blue Devils beat Elon and UConn at home, then went into double OT to beat Northwestern. Their 4th win was against a 1-4 FCS team in Middle Tennessee.

Four of the Jackets’ five wins against ranked ACC teams under Key have come away from home.
Show MoreGeorgia Tech Stomps VMI In Bobby Dodd Shellacking
A steady mist surrounded campus and an ominous looking sky managed to hold off a predicted storm. But, all of the pouring on was provided by the Jackets. VMI came in with a pair of losses at William & Mary (41-7) and to Bucknell 35-28. Tech was coming off a frustrating loss at Syracuse. But, in their favor was the interesting stat that the Yellow Jackets were 10-1 after a Tech loss under Brent Key.
Show MoreGeorgia Tech Returns To Bobby Dodd Stadium To Host VMI
A big week is coming up for the Yellow Jackets as they prepare for VMI. Georgia Tech falls back to being an unranked team after its 31-28 loss to Syracuse.

Show MoreGeorgia Tech's Late Rally Comes Up Short as No. 23 Yellow Jackets Lose On The Road to Syracuse
The favored Jackets were going against a team that lost its best linebacker to injury and gave up 6.5 yards per carry to Ohio last week. On paper, it looked like Tech had advantages up front coming into the game. That did not match up with reality though. Syracuse was the more physical team by a lot today and GT leaves with their first loss of the season and a lot of things to figure out.
Show MoreGeorgia Tech Impresses With 35-12 Win Over Georgia State
Given the short distance from the Georgia State campus, I was surprised there was not a lot more blue in the crowd. Tech fans filled most of what they didn’t, though. All 6,000+ tickets allocated to students were sold out. Big plays, a balanced offensive attack and defensive stands highlighted the first ever meeting between the two football teams. The key to it all is being able to get guys touches,” Tech coach Brent Key said.

For Home Opener
The Jackets are favored in this one by a whopping 38 points to beat the Panthers in a blowout. That seems hard to believe.

A few players were commenting before the game that it has been difficult to prepare for a team that you really have no realistic film on.
