The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets and Virginia Cavaliers meet in Atlanta on Saturday, and both teams are looking to pick up their first conference win of the season. For Georgia Tech, the game is particularly important since it lost its season opener to Virginia Tech. If the Jackets are to stay in the Coastal Division hunt, they can't afford an 0-2 start to conference play.
Virginia Vs. Georgia Tech Game Time, TV Schedule, Spread And More
Georgia Tech and Virginia meet at Bobby Dodd Stadium on Saturday, each in search of their first ACC win.
The Cavaliers are 2-0 with wins over Richmond and Penn State, though they were fortunate, to say the least, to escape last week with a 17-16 win over the Nittany Lions. It’s still tough to gauge where the Cavs fit in the Coastal Division pecking order, and the Jackets will provide them their first litmus test of 2012.
Virginia got the best of Georgia Tech in 2011 and limited the Yellow Jackets to just 296 total yards, 272 of which came on the ground. Virginia’s offense piled up 407 yards in that one and averaged more than six yards per play.
Game time, TV channel: 3:30 p.m. ET, ESPNU
Point spread: Georgia Tech favored by 10 points
