Technical Tidbits 10/8: Tech Prepares For A Historical Night

There are a lot of interesting historical tidbits in this article. On Friday night, the Yellow Jackets will play their first Friday night game since 1958. For several reasons over the years, Tech has declined to play on Friday night. One primary reason is deference to high school football, as Friday night is seen as their time. Interestingly, as the article points out, this did lead to Thursday night football, which Tech was partially responsible for. Apparently head coach Geoff Collins consulted with local high school football coaches and received their approval before the team agreed to the upcoming game.
