Key Storylines
Georgia Tech enters this contest having compiled an impressive 8‑1 record overall and a 5‑1 mark in ACC play. Their sole loss came recently on the road to NC State. The Georgia Tech defense fell apart in that game, conceding 48 points and making it impossible for Haynes King and the Georgia Tech offense to keep up.
Boston College is 1‑9 and 0‑6 in ACC play. They haven’t looked competitive at all during conference play and will try to change that this week in an attempt to put Georgia Tech on upset alert. Georgia Tech has been efficient and balanced offensively. They average 36 points per game, and standout senior quarterback Haynes King has accounted for significant yardage through the air and on the ground.
Georgia Tech has more questions on defense than they do on offense. They allow 395 yards per game and have surrendered sizable chunk plays throughout their ACC schedule. Boston College also struggles on defense, but they are tasked with stopping a much better offense in this contest.
Quarterback Play
Haynes King’s dual‑threat capability offers Georgia Tech a clear advantage in this game. His ability to extend plays forces defenses to account for multiple ways to pick up yardage. Boston College has tried multiple quarterbacks this season and will try to get a spark out of Dylan Lonergan in this contest. Lonergan has 10 touchdown passes and 5 interceptions this season and isn’t likely to give the Eagles an edge over King and the Yellow Jackets.

Final Thoughts
We should see the defense of Georgia Tech bounce back in this game after they were torched by NC State in their last outing. The Yellow Jackets will continue to put up points behind Haynes King, but they will string together some stops against the worst team in the ACC here. I’ll lay the points with Georgia Tech on the road, as the Jackets will keep their ACC title hopes alive.
