For the Tech faithful, the second “cupcake” game of the year was one that played out as such. Kennesaw State made the short trip south to Bobby Dodd, and in a short amount of time the Jackets had the game in hand.
After nearly forcing a three and out on Kennesaw State’s first drive, Tech responded with redshirt junior Jordan Mason’s first ever receiving touchdown on a six-yard pass by redshirt freshman Jordan Yates. Tech would never relinquish the lead.
Tech’s defense showed consistent prowess on Saturday as Kennesaw ran a triple option offense that threw a little bit more than an average Paul Johnson team.
