00:00 30% on third downs last season.
00:03 Louisville had one of the best pass rushes
00:05 in the nation last year.
00:06 Pressure is there.
00:07 Ball's in the air and picked.
00:09 Kevin Coleman goes in motion on first down.
00:19 It's a handoff on the ground to Jaward Jordan
00:23 with a gain of almost a dozen.
00:25 A first down for Louisville.
00:27 This is a small win for Georgia Tech.
00:28 Just holding to this field goal attempt.
00:31 Travels to a first field goal attempt
00:33 of his collegiate career.
00:35 And it's good.
00:37 And that drive all the way to campus.
00:39 A lot of good podcasts.
00:42 Plummer off his back foot.
00:44 Downfield.
00:44 Coleman wide open.
00:46 And brings it to midfield.
00:49 A gain of 40.
00:50 Let's see which speedster I can get the ball in his hands.
00:54 A good cushion at the top.
00:55 [CROWD CHEERING]
00:59 Plummer checks down to Amari Huggins-Bruce.
01:02 Louisville's top returning receiver.
01:04 He's slippery.
01:07 Georgia Tech trying to rip the ball out.
01:09 They might have--
01:10 [CROWD CHEERING]
01:13 --down.
01:14 Or what the defense is giving him.
01:17 A nice play by KJ Wallace.
01:19 And the 30-yard attempt for Travelstad is up and good.
01:24 Play tough.
01:25 All right, finish these plays.
01:26 I just think our nerves are kicking right now.
01:28 We've got to start to relax and go out there and execute
01:30 better.
01:30 Thank you, coach.
01:33 Haynes King with his feet picks up the first down.
01:36 Andre, we were talking in the commercial.
01:39 You start to sense nerves.
01:40 You're Haynes King.
01:41 You feel a little contact there that wakes you up, doesn't it?
01:44 It wakes you up.
01:45 But Haynes King's got some more problems to kind of adapt
01:48 to big play here.
01:50 How about Jamal Haynes?
01:54 Pushed out of bounds.
01:55 A red zone try for Georgia Tech.
01:57 Tony Olantzou came in for Ben Perry,
01:59 who was ejected for targeting.
02:01 Made the last play.
02:02 On third down, King keeps it low.
02:05 Throw is caught.
02:05 Touchdown, Georgia Tech.
02:07 Brett Seigert has the hurdles.
02:12 Inside, keeping everybody down inside.
02:14 A nice job of pulling it out in a quick move.
02:18 And I'm sure the players feel it, too.
02:19 So you're going to play hard for him.
02:22 That's that offensive line intensity.
02:25 Off tempo.
02:26 That's Rutherford.
02:28 Lots of space.
02:29 Down the sideline and a touchdown saving tackle
02:33 by Louisville's Devin Neal.
02:35 First and goal, Cooley the running back.
02:38 They give it right back to him.
02:40 And he plunges in for six against his former team.
02:44 Any doubt he's going to get in?
02:47 Shoulder pads, shoulder levels down.
02:49 [CHEERING]
02:54 Plummer keeps his move.
02:57 And he's inside the 25, another Louisville first down.
03:01 Coleman now the motion man.
03:04 Plummer to Coleman.
03:06 Gets the edge, reaching.
03:09 Touchdown, Louisville.
03:10 [CHEERING]
03:14 Just raining points here in the dome here in Atlanta.
03:22 Now it's formation to try to get him one on one with coverage.
03:25 Move Haynes away from him and then let him have one.
03:30 Downfield, out goes it in.
03:34 Dragging a couple of defenders inside the 25.
03:38 Explosive plays in the second quarter continue.
03:42 Louisville, Georgia Tech.
03:43 Coverage wasn't bad, but it's the anticipation
03:45 and the throw by Haynes King.
03:47 He knifes it in there.
03:48 And when you have a too high safety in a corner in cover 2,
03:52 you've got to be able to drill the football exactly the way
03:55 Haynes King did on that play.
03:58 Singleton in motion, Cooley the front.
04:00 Big hole.
04:01 Drake Cooley, touchdown, Georgia Tech.
04:05 [BUZZER]
04:08 Watch the block in the middle of the formation by the center.
04:12 It allows for the cutback to Cooley.
04:14 And you got one guy to beat, Josh Minkins, the safety.
04:17 Well, I'd really like to get in the end zone.
04:20 Remember now, with less than two minutes to go in the half,
04:23 Kroc stops it first down, as it will here,
04:27 on the run by Jamal Haynes.
04:29 No apparent hurry yet.
04:32 Screen pass.
04:35 Room to run.
04:38 Chase Lane down the sideline.
04:41 Touchdown.
04:42 [BUZZER]
04:45 The transfers are balling tonight for Georgia Tech.
04:50 Chase Lane, and he gets an excellent block
04:54 by the tight end, Brett Scyther.
04:58 He throws a heck of a block.
05:00 That gets him freed up.
05:02 More points on the board, though.
05:05 Plummer down the seam, intercepted.
05:07 [BUZZER]
05:11 [CROWD CHEERING]
05:15 Near side, that's caught.
05:17 [CROWD CHEERING]
05:20 And a first down into Georgia Tech territory,
05:23 Jimmy Callaway, a gain of 16.
05:26 A little bit easier on fourth down.
05:28 [CROWD CHEERING]
05:30 Here's the blitz.
05:32 Complete, first down, thrash.
05:35 Spinning away.
05:38 And you see the playmaking ability of Jomari Thrash.
05:42 A 22-yarder for Travelstaff.
05:46 His third field goal of the night.
05:49 There's Thrash.
05:56 Stiff arm.
05:59 And again, showing that playmaking ability.
06:01 So dangerous.
06:07 Plummer goes back to the air.
06:09 And Chris Bell pinballs his way into the red zone.
06:14 And inside the 10-yard line, Andre, during warm-ups,
06:18 you couldn't take your eyes off number 0 for Louisville.
06:22 Yeah, I like Bell up top.
06:24 Now Coleman in motion.
06:26 Plummer.
06:27 End zone.
06:30 Caught for a touchdown, Jomari Thrash.
06:33 [BUZZER]
06:37 The end zone.
06:39 I'm thinking, well, that may be the best ball
06:41 that Plummer's thrown all night.
06:42 Had some touch on it.
06:45 Those tackle, defensive tackle position.
06:47 Pressure off the edge.
06:49 King has a running lane.
06:52 Hesitated.
06:53 Still gets to the outside.
06:55 He's got the wheels.
06:58 From the state of Georgia, you have the Georgia governor,
07:00 Brian Kemp, and then Mayor Andre Dickens.
07:03 Beach Ball Incorporated CEO Gary Stokin, amongst others.
07:08 Louisville throwing and completing.
07:10 It's Kevin Coleman.
07:12 Louisville has not converted a third down until now.
07:17 Thrash.
07:21 Inside the 35 of Georgia Tech.
07:27 Staple of these Jeff Grom offenses.
07:31 Downfield.
07:32 Open receiver.
07:34 Touchdown, Jomari Thrash.
07:37 Louisville takes the lead.
07:39 And I mean, Thrash does it just perfectly.
07:41 Freezes the safety on a corner blitz.
07:45 And I mean, the ball's in the air.
07:47 Somebody's uncovered.
07:48 Let me raise up, just give it to him,
07:50 and put all the pressure on Louisville's defense.
07:52 Third down, Kings will run for it.
07:55 Gets a block up field and uses the legs.
07:58 [CROWD CHEERING]
08:03 To the air.
08:04 King, hit from the block side.
08:06 The ball is out.
08:07 Louisville picks it up.
08:08 [CROWD CHEERING]
08:12 Big number 99, Desmond Tell, with the forced fumble.
08:17 And Louisville's got it with 353.
08:20 Cameron Wilson covered it up.
08:22 [CROWD CHEERING]
08:26 Hand off Jawar Jordan.
08:28 Breaks a tackle.
08:30 Still going.
08:33 No one's going to catch him.
08:35 And no flags.
08:37 74 yards for a touchdown, Jawar Jordan.
08:42 It's 35-28.
08:45 What a heck of a job of blocking up front and running by Jordan.
08:49 He's been on ice for most of this game.
08:52 Finally give him a handoff, and he's
08:54 going to make the most of it to the house.
08:56 Talk about his speed, how much they wanted to get him
09:05 involved in this game.
09:08 15, 20 touches didn't happen tonight,
09:11 but he had the one big one.
09:14 A field goal that is prior to today at the collegiate level.
09:19 And this one from 38 is good.
09:21 It is a two score game.
09:23 Of Texas and Oklahoma in the Big 12.
09:26 It's the last year of the Pac-12 as we know it.
09:30 It's Christian Leary in the Louisville territory.
09:37 But for both of these programs, as we've said,
09:40 at the very top of the broadcast,
09:42 it is the first year essentially for both head coaches.
09:46 Brent Key was an interim coach last year,
09:49 now full time head coach, and Jeff Brom back at Louisville.
09:53 Still competing.
09:59 That is what it's all about.
10:01 That is Eric Singleton, the speedy freshman,
10:04 who this program has high hopes for.
10:07 He will catch a lot more passes.
10:10 That's a heck of a throw by Haynes King.
10:13 But the talent of Eric Singleton on full display there.
10:18 Back of the end zone, Singleton brings it in
10:22 for his first career touchdown.
10:24 The next few years, and he's got something
10:28 you can't teach in that speed.
10:32 Just the battle back.
10:33 His quarterback starting to play well in the second half.
10:36 Everybody else stepping up around the quarterback
10:39 and playing well.
10:40 Plummer played much better in the second half.
10:43 Jordan broke off a 74 yard touchdown run
10:47 to put the game away.
10:49 Jamari Brash, six of his seven catches,
10:52 and both of his touchdowns came in the second half.
