(21) Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (4-0)
With respect to Josh Nesbitt’s great efforts as Georgia Tech’s quarterback the last few years, the Yellow Jackets are making it look like the key was the system, not the passer, all along.
No one has an answer for the triple-option. Just as they did with Nesbitt, the Jackets are going absolutely nuts in the running game, only this time it looks like they might be even better. Tevin Washington has over 100 rushing yards and four rushing scores through four games but he’s also passed for 821 yards, eight touchdowns and one interception.
It’s terrifying. Georgia Tech is second in the nation in rushing, averaging 398.8 yards per game, but it’s also up to 231.8 passing yards per game. The Jackets average an FBS-best 630.5 total yards and 53.2 points per game. Now that they can actually throw to go along with the triple-option, the offense looks unstoppable.
Last week’s win over North Carolina was impressive but the 35-28 score reminded us that the Jackets won’t run away with every game. Their first three opponents were pushovers. Decent offenses can still score on Georgia Tech.
North Carolina State Wolfpack (2-2)
It’s time to seriously worry about North Carolina State. The Wolfpack’s two victories were against non-FBS teams. They lost to Wake Forest and got absolutely pumped 44-14 by a pretty ordinary Cincinnati team last weekend. [soliloquy id=”82219″]
N.C. State’s offense hasn’t been a total embarrassment, as Mike Glennon has looked pretty solid under center, but the Wolfpack have been awful defensively, allowing more than 400 yards of offense per game.
The pick:
I actually think N.C. will score a little on Georgia Tech’s defense at home. Glennon has been competent and should lead a few good drives. However, I don’t see the Wolfpack covering, even as 10-point home underdogs.
Georgia Tech will just have the ball too often and score too many times for N.C. State to keep up. For that reason, I like the Jackets to improve to 5-0, both straight up and against the spread.
Georgia Tech vs N.C. State prediction: Georgia Tech 38, N.C. State 24
Spread: Georgia Tech -10
Over/Under: OFF
