CLEMSON, S.C. —
Georgia Tech’s spotty special teams continued in Saturday’s 43-24 loss at Clemson.
Trailing 17-3 in the first quarter, longsnapper Sean Tobin’s snap sailed over the head of punter Ryan Rodwell on fourth and 14 at the 24-yard line.
Rodwell picked up the ball in the end zone and managed to kick it, but the low line drive slammed into Clemson’s Jadar Johnson at the 6-yard line and started to roll back toward the end zone. A Tech player tried to kick the ball again and missed as the ball rolled through the end zone for a safety to give the Tigers a 19-3 lead.
