What Did We Learn: Georgia Tech Falls to Duke 28-14

What a bizarre and frustrating game. Entering Saturday, Georgia Tech boasted the #1 rushing offense in the country with an impressive 373 rushing yards per game. Tech’s defense came in ranked #67 in yards allowed per game and had delivered underwhelming performances against every legitimate opponent thus far. It seemed to be the perfect setup for a high-scoring offensive shootout, but that’s not what we got at all. In the first half, Tech’s defense did a surprisingly good job at keeping Duke’s offense in check while the Jackets’ offense completely floundered, scraping together just 77 rushing yards. Despite their struggles on the offensive side, Tech’s defense held strong and the game was a 7-7 tie at halftime.
