A quarter-by-quarter look at Georgia Tech’s 31-28 loss against Pittsburgh on Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium.
FIRST QUARTER
Big play: Freshman B-back Marcus Marshall, making his first career start, took an option pitch from quarterback Justin Thomas and raced 58 yards down the east sideline to tie the game at 7-7 at the 6:29 mark. It was the first run play of 20 yards or more by a running back since the Notre Dame game and set the tone for an afternoon of big run plays.
