After really well played back-to-back weeks for the Ramblin’ Wreck that included a convincing win over UNC and a near upset of Clemson; the Jackets came back down to earth against the Pitt Panthers on Saturday, October 2nd.
Pitt proved they can score big points against anyone, while GT reverted back to the Tech of the Week One Northern Illinois game. QB Jeff Sims threw two early interceptions that resulted in the Panthers taking a 14-0 lead before Kenny Pickett threw four TD’s on Andrew Thacker’s defense.

Where to begin... one data point no one wanted to see was the back-to-back interceptions to start the game.
