Bloody Skalski says Tiger defense had to fight for win over Georgia Tech

James Skalski made the biggest play of the game on Saturday against Georgia Tech, stuffing the shovel pitch to the tight end on fourth-and-goal to seal the Tigers’ 14-8 victory in Death Valley. The linebacker walked back to the sidelines after the play, his pants covered in blood from a cut he suffered on the drive, and he was held up by his teammate KJ Henry after putting his body on the line to make the stop.

The sixth-year senior put the team effort into words perfectly on Monday.

“We had to fight for that one, that was a good game,” Skalski said.
