Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Duke
After a weekend of minimal football stress, it is time for a conference test to save our season. We play the Duke Blue Devils, our old Coastal Division rivals, who have been sneaky good this year. Not many expected this after star quarterback Darien Mensah left for Miami in rather dramatic fashion. Yet here the […]
Scions E332: A Welcome Bye
Jack and Jake recap a strange week of ACC football results plus takeaways from Brent Key’s latest press conference. That and the latest in Tech volleyball’s matches in Chapel Hill and Durham, then tennis and cross country. And yes, Jake drives us into a ditch in the first five minutes of the episode. Like the […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Bye Week
I admittedly fell asleep around halftime of the Stanford game, and I am so glad I did, so I did not have to watch the second-half collapse. Unfortunately for me, I decided to watch the condensed game on Sunday morning, and I turned it off as soon as I saw Mendoza in the shotgun on […]
Volleyball Stays Perfect at Home after Dominant Weekend
If you aren’t already, you should be paying more attention to Jackets Volleyball, because unlike the other ball-centric sport on the Flats right now, they are, well, good. The squad opened ACC play with a bang, cruising to straight-set victories over both Virginia and Virginia Tech. The performance continues the trend of home dominance on […]
Tuesday Thoughts 9/29: Panic Mode
Yuck. Game Recap in Three Sentences A 10-point halftime lead was quickly erased in a third quarter in which Tech only ran eight plays for 21 yards. A late Mendoza INT deep in Stanford territory halted a potential comeback. The run defense finally showed up but it was at the expense of the passing defense […]
Scions E331: Trees 34, Bees 27. Questions: Many
Jake, Jack, and Akshay analyze the demoralizing and demotivating Georgia Tech football loss to Stanford, what we’ve seen over four games, and why the team is not headed in the right direction (thank god for the bye week). Then a check in on Tech volleyball’s stellar 2-0 weekend to begin ACC play with big opponents […]
Georgia Tech @ Stanford Game Thread/Where To Watch
The Jackets are back on the west coast for the first time since the 2000s to face the Stanford Cardinal in Stanford Stadium. The game also represents Tech’s first football game against a new ACC opponent since Stanford, Cal and SMU were added to the conference. The good news, Tech is favored. The bad news, […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Stanford
Georgia Tech is traveling to the West Coast this weekend to take on Stanford. I am fully expecting my sleep schedule to be ruined on Saturday night after watching the Jackets’ kickoff at my typical bedtime, so let’s pray we get a win to make the loss of precious sleep worth it. Interestingly, of the […]

Tuesday Thoughts 9/22: Shrug
Back in the win column! Game Recap in Three Sentences The offense finally got going and topped 400 yards for the first time this season. The defense wasn’t amazing but they held Mercer to only FGs when it mattered. Two turnovers helped break the game open and keep a comfortable lead. Above The Line of […]

Georgia Tech beats Mercer 44-11
It wasn’t the game we wanted it to happen in, but Georgia Tech (1-2) recorded its first win of the 2026 season beating the Mercer Bears 44-11. Quarterback Alberto Mendoza threw for 249 yards with three touchdowns on 15-21 passing. Justice Haynes accounted for two rushing touchdowns with 141 rushing yards. Chad Alexander scored a […]
Georgia Tech vs. Mercer Where To Watch/Game Thread
There’s only one goal today: get a win. Georgia Tech (0-2) lost a true clunker in week 1 to Colorado before getting (expectedly) trounced by #15 Tennessee, going winless in their first two games for the first time since 1989. The Jackets host the Mercer Bears today, who were an FCS darling in 2025, making […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Mercer
Well, that wasn’t very fun. I know some people had faith in the upset, but Tennessee was just the better team. This week, we look ahead to Mercer, as they make the hour drive up from Macon to play the Jackets. Here is what I think I know as we look to win our first […]
How Georgia Tech Collapsed from an 8 game winning streak and I had to drink a 42 year old Coke
The following is a guest opinion piece written by our friend Wreck Talk. The piece has only been edited for formatting and AP Style (where we remembered to).

Tuesday Thoughts 9/15: Juiceless
No more night games please, staying up late to watch this team is becoming bad for my health. Game Recap in Three Sentences The offense finally managed to score their first TD of the season late in the third but the game was already out of hand by then. The defense played okay for a […]

#18 Tennessee easily beats Georgia Tech 45-24
After a hearbreaking loss to Colorado last week, Georgia Tech (0-2) was firmly beat by the now 2-0 #18 Tennessee Volunteers 45-24 behind two touchdowns from DeSean Bishop and another two passing from freshman quarterback Faizon Brandon. Tech had a lead early in the game after a blocked punt before allowing 24 points unanswered to […]
Georgia Tech vs. #18 Tennessee Game Thread/Where To Watch
The 0-1 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will look to get their first win of the 2026 season as #18 Tennessee makes the short drive down from Knoxville for their first trip to Bobby Dodd Stadium since the Bill Curry days in 1986 (Tech won 14-13). The Jackets are a 12.5 point underdog, and for good […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Tennessee
I do not think a single one of us expected the performance that we watched against Colorado on Thursday night. I think I can speak for many Tech fans when I say that even if Aidan Birr’s field goal went in as time expired, I would still have the same dreadful feeling about what went […]

Tuesday Thoughts 9/8: Inches
*sigh* Welcome to the 2026 season I guess. Game Recap in Three Sentences Down by just one point, Birr’s FG attempt as time expired was blocked. The run game was a massive disparity: the Buffs rushed for 181 yards compared to Tech’s paltry 51. The field position battle was a losing one all evening with […]
Colorado upsets Tech 14-13 on blocked field goal
Georgia Tech football had the worst case scenario happen as they begin their season 0-1 after a 14-13 loss to Colorado. Dating back to the Pitt game last season, Tech has won only one game. After allowing a touchdown with under a minute to go to go down 14-13, Indiana transfer quarterback Alberto Mendoza found […]
Georgia Tech vs. Colorado Game Thread/Where To Watch
