So, Georgia Tech scored more points in it's first half without Jeff Sims than it scored in 10 of 11 whole FBS games last year
Update: Still at 28 points

The gold helmet - navy jersey - white pants for Tech is universally loved.
These jerseys are....what...puke gold?

Anyone else think the new Fox Sports graphics look like the icons to select your team from like NCAA 04?
My favorite aspect of NCAA was when they'd have pregame highlights of players vs that game's opponent, in the uniform colors you'd be wearing in your game.
Strange use of time travel.

Georgia tech rarely wears the blue jerseys, correct? I thought them, LSU, and the Cowboys or the teams that wore whites at home

Oh, that is what it looks like. (I kinda like parts of the score bug, not the flag graphic, though)

Yes, they actively avoid their best look.

Lots of NFL teams have started wearing white at home, at least occasionally.  As far as I know, Dallas is still the only one that does it exclusively.

Didn't the Redskins and Eagles always wear home whites back in the day?

I enjoy it when the home team wears white just to cause the boys to go dark

Florida-Utah on Thursday night became ESPN's most-watched college football opener since 2017:
How is that possible when almost 19 Million people couldn't watch it due to a lockout?
