In last Thursday’s season opener against Alcorn State, some Georgia Tech defensive starters played as few as nine snaps in the 69-6 rout. It was a positive for Yellow Jackets backups, who received valuable game experience.
It was not the ideal, though, for defensive coordinator Ted Roof, as the No. 15 Jackets prepare for Tulane on Saturday with their first road trip coming up in two Saturdays, at No. 9 Notre Dame.
