Technical Tidbits 9/10: Predictions And Starters, Looking Forward To Saturday’s Season Opener

Georgia Tech head coach Geoff Collins has a unique approach to naming his starters. His preference is to name players who are on the “ATL” list, or the Above The Line list. As the article mentions, there’s 63 players named for this season’s opening game against Florida State University. The fact that this includes five members of the most recent recruiting class does suggest the team is still young and inexperienced, as the article says. But I also like to think that some of those players are deserving of the opportunity and could make significant contributions. Two more days and we’ll get our first real insight into just where this Yellow Jacket team and what improvements it has made going into Collins’ second years at the helm.
