The last time College Gameday did a game that the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets played in, it was October 21st, 2006, almost 13 years ago. Come August 29th, however, the Jackets will see that Gameday drought end as on Thursday afternoon, ESPN announced that College Gameday is making its way to Clemson on August 29th for a special Thursday edition of a College Gameday.
Coincidentally, the Jackets last appearance on Gameday also came in Clemson in what would turn into a huge Clemson victory, winning 31-7. The game on August 29th, of course is not just the season opener but the home opener for Clemson as they are coming off their second national championship in three seasons while also becoming the first 15-0 team in college football history.
