At a bare minimum, Geoff Collins’ tenure as head coach will not begin without an ACC win.
It was a sloppy game against Miami, with both teams making crucial mistakes every step of the way. But in the end, it was Tech who came up big against the Hurricanes, walking away with an overtime road victory in Hard Rock Stadium. How big is that? In Paul Johnson’s 11-year tenure with the Jackets, not once did he beat Miami on the road.
In all fairness to Johnson, the Miami of today is a much different program than the perennial powerhouse he faced annually.
