Watching Georgia Tech has become an attempt to finding a silver lining each week in hopes of spotting a glimmer of improvement on what appears to be a long rebuild. Tonight, the defense did have a more respectable showing adorned in uniforms paying tribute to the once-dominant defenses of the mid-80s known as the Black Watch.
The offense however cast shades of grey over the performance when they failed to move the ball with any consistency. In previous weeks the offense was usually undone by untimely penalties and turnovers. That area of concern was kept in check for most of the game, but instead, poor execution and conservative play calling was the culprit.
