The Yellow Jackets opened the season with a convincing 41-0 win over AlcornState last Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium. In the debut of defensive coordinator Nate Woody’s 3-4 scheme, Tech’s defenserecorded its first shutout in 57 games, dating back to a 56-0 victory over Syracuseon Oct. 19, 2013. The Jackets limited Alcorn State to just 146 yards of total offense, which is thefewest allowed by a GT defense since it surrendered 132 yards in a 27-0 win overDuke on Oct. 4, 2008 (head coach Paul Johnson’s fifth game at Tech). Not to be outdone, Georgia Tech’s offense racked up 543 total yards against Alcorn, including 439 on the ground, which marked the fifth time in the last 12 gamesthat the Yellow Jackets have rushed for 400-plus yards. Prior to the beginning of lastseason, Tech had rushed for 400 yards in a game just 25 times in program history. Georgia Tech and USF are meeting for the first time. GT fielded its first footballteam in 1892 and is competing in its 126th football season. USF played its firstfootball game in 1997 and is in its 22nd season overall and 19th at the NCAA Division I FBS level. While the Yellow Jackets have never faced USF, it has played at the Bulls’ homestadium before. Raymond James Stadium was the site of the 2009 ACC Championship Game, which Georgia Tech won over Clemson, 39-34 (the Yellow Jackets latervacated the victory due to NCAA sanctions).SERIES HISTORYSeries Record (Streak):.First meetingat Georgia Tech:.N/Aat USF:.N/ANeutral Sites:.N/ALast Meeting:.N/ATALE OF THE TAPEAverage heights and weights of players listed on the depthchart for each team:Georgia TechUSF6-4, 283.

Should the Yellow Jackets wind up playing three top-10 teams, it would mark the third time in the last fourseasons that they do so (the Jackets also played three top-10 teams in 2015 and 2017). Prior to 2015, Tech had not facedthree top-10 opponents in the same season since 1983 (which was its first season as a full-fledged member of the ACC).4Of the 127 NCAA Division I FBS teams that have played so far this season, Georgia Tech is one of only four that hasn’tallowed a point, joining Air Force (38-0 win over Stony Brook), Georgia (45-0 win over Austin Peay) and UAB (52-0 win overSavannah State).5With 439 rushing yards against Alcorn State last Saturday, Georgia Tech eclipsed the 400-yard rushing mark for the fifth timein 12 games, dating back to the beginning of last season.5Georgia Tech’s 2018 schedule is ranked as the fifth-toughest in the nation by Bleacher Report and is the toughest schedule inthe ACC according to Athlon.22Twenty-two of the 30 400-yard rushing games in Georgia Tech history have come in Paul Johnson’s 10-plus seasons asthe Yellow Jackets’ head coach (2008-pres.). Since Johnson’s arrival on The Flats, Georgia Tech has rushed for 400 yards ina game 22 times in 130 contests (once every 5.9 games). Prior to his arrival, the Yellow Jackets had rushed for 400 yards ina game eight times in 1,138 contests (once every 142.3 games).Defenses coached by Georgia Tech defensive coordinator Nate Woody have not surrendered a point in the last 131:05 ofgame play. Prior to a 41-0 shutout win over Alcorn State in Woody’s Georgia Tech debut last Saturday, Woody’s previous team,Appalachian State, ended last season with a 34-0 win over Toledo in the Dollar General Bowl. A Woody-coached defensehasn’t allowed a point since Louisiana-Lafayette scored a touchdown with 11:05 to go in App State’s 63-14 victory over theRagin’ Cajuns on Dec. 2 of last season.2SUNApprox. 5:45 p.m. – Headcoach Paul Johnson (BobbyDodd Stadium – Gate 6 Lobby,adjacent to Callaway Plaza) Assistant A.D./Communications & P.R.

TheYellow Jackets have led the ACC and finished among thetop 10 nationally in rushing offense in each of Johnson’s 10seasons as head coach. Georgia Tech’s 439-yard rushing performance in theseason opener against Alcorn State marked the fifth time in12 games since the beginning of last season that the YellowJackets have rushed for at least 400 yards in a game (onceevery 2.4 games). During Johnson’s 10-plus seasons as Georgia Tech’s headcoach (2008-pres.), the Yellow Jackets have rushed for atleast 400 yards in a game 22 times in 130 total games(once every 5.9 games). Prior to Johnson’s arrival on The Flats in 2008, Tech hadrushed for at least 400 yards in a game just eight times in1,138 games (once every 142.3 games).GEORGIA TECH — 400-YARD RUSHING GAMES400-yd.TotalgamesgamesLast 12 Games (2017-pres.) 512Under CPJ (2008-pres.)22130Pre-CPJ (1892-2007)81,138One 400yd. gameeverygms.2.45.9142.3 The Jackets set a school record with four 400-yard rushing games last season (535 vs. Tennesse on Sept. 4, 436vs. Pitt on Sept. 23, 403 vs. North Carolina on Sept. 30 and427 vs. Wake Forest on Oct. 21). Making the feat even moreimpressive is that it came in just 11 games, Tech’s fewestgames in a season since 1996. The previous GT record ofthree 400-yard rushing games in a season occurred threetimes, all under Johnson (2008, 2009 and 2014). In Johnson’s 10-plus seasons at the helm, Georgia Techhas produced 17 rushers that have eclipsed the 1,000-yardplateau for their careers. That is over one-third percent ofthe 49 Yellow Jackets that have amassed 1,000 careerrushing yards in the 126-season history of Georgia Techfootball.
