Tulane at Georgia Tech

When Paul Johnson was hired away from Navy to Georgia Tech, many said the option attack could not work at this level, but he sure has proven otherwise, as Georgia Tech has one of the top ground games in CFB every year since his arrival, and that won't change this year. QB Justin Thomas returns for Tech, and he is a perfect fit for the option attack. Tech has lost over 2,000 ground yards to graduation, but the offensive line is mostly in tact, and this is a system that is not built for an individual running back, and success will follow. Tulane is going to be hard-pressed to hang in this game, which will soon turn ugly. Tulane started this season where they left off last season, and that is a colossal struggle on offense. The Wave produced all of 16 points in their last three games last season, and were stymied in their opener vs. another ACC team in Duke, scoring just seven points. This one will be a massive blowout, so lay the points Georgia Tech.
