Home streak against Clemson a factor for Georgia Tech

CHARLOTTE, N.C. — Georgia Tech quarterback Justin Thomas and defensive lineman Patrick Gamble were both 9 years old the last time Clemson beat Georgia Tech in Atlanta.

“I didn’t know that they hadn’t won there in that long,” Gamble said Thursday at the annual ACC Football Kickoff media event.

“I don’t know too much about that game,” Thomas added.

Thomas and Gamble may not have many recollections of that Saturday Sept. 20, 2003, when Clemson limited Georgia Tech to just 45 rushing yards on 33 carries en route to a 39-3 victory, and they may not be aware of the Yellow Jackets’ current five-game home winning streak against the Tigers.
