The No. 24 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets travel to take on the North Carolina State Wolfpack in a battle of ACC teams looking to close out the season and go into bowl season with a string of wins.
Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson spoke about the Yellow Jackets being named the No. 24 team in the country and said that is always nice to see that your accomplishments get recognition.
"I think anytime you do well your confidence is going to go up, and hopefully you can take the momentum and gain from it," Johnson said. "You'd like for it to be a pattern and not an enigma, a one-game thing.”
North Carolina State’s second-year coach Dave Doeren spoke about the team’s first ACC victory of the season and what it means to the program. He also said the resume isn’t complete as they need one more win to gain bowl eligibility this season.
"I'm excited to get our first ACC win," Doeren said. " ... It's good to be back on the winning side of things. It was good to see the light in our players faces right now. I'm proud of them for fighting. It's not about me. It's all about them.”
Georgia Tech leads the all-time series against North Carolina State 18-10 and the Yellow Jackets have taken six of the last eight from the Wolfpack. Georgia Tech beat North Carolina State 45-35 last season.
