Paul Johnson was not enjoying this Saturday afternoon re-run.
After Georgia Tech’s offense had given Vanderbilt a knee-buckling roundhouse with an 81-yard touchdown pass on the first play from scrimmage, the Yellow Jackets defense turned back the clock to last Saturday and turned the green light on again for third down.
After FCS Mercer converted 10 of 18 third downs against the Jackets last week, Vanderbilt converted its first three third downs, measuring nine, four and three yards. The last produced a game-tying touchdown. Johnson was not smiling.
