Georgia Tech opens season of high expectations vs. Alcorn State

ATLANTA, Georgia -- Alcorn State can not be overlooked; fortunately for the Yellow Jackets, they know it. The teams will trade blows in the early going before Tech takes control with its relentless ground game.

The defensive line will be Virginia Tech’s biggest asset. “For once I hope they got it right”. How did the Yellow Jackets distinguish themselves from the Wolfpack, and why did you believe they provided you with the best fit at the next level? Previous year we saw Tony Zenon, Deon Hill, B.J. Bostic, Charles Perkins, Dennis Andrews and Broderick Snoddy. “We’ve been in the ACC Championship game three of the seven years we’ve been there”.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets will welcome the Alcorn State Braves to Bobby Dodd Stadium for the first game of the season. Georgia Tech was just 79th in the FBS in total defense, giving up 411.3 yards per game. Now, after reaching the Atlantic Coast Conference championship game and winning the Orange Bowl, the Yellow Jackets are faced with much higher expectations. Whichever players are most physical and securely block their cornerback assignments best will see the field the most this season, so look for which wideouts best fight to the whistle on Thursday.
