The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets continued their dream season on Saturday afternoon, defeating Virginia Tech 35-20 at Bobby Dodd Stadium to improve to 6-0 and remain atop the ACC standings.

Coming off a bye week, the Jackets looked fresh and focused from the start, controlling the game on both sides of the ball. The offense once again showed its balance, led by a dominant performance from running back Malachi Holsley, who finished with 11 carries for 129 yards and a touchdown.

Holsley was explosive every time he touched the ball, breaking off multiple big runs and setting the tone early with his physical running style.  

Quarterback Haynes King managed the game efficiently, spreading the ball around and keeping the Hokies’ defense off balance, while the Georgia Tech defense came up big in key moments—forcing turnovers and holding Virginia Tech.

With the win, Georgia Tech continues to control its own destiny in the ACC race. At 6-0, the Yellow Jackets are off to their best start in recent memory and are quickly becoming one of the biggest stories in college football this season.

Next up, the Jackets will look to keep their unbeaten streak alive as they hit the road for a crucial conference matchup that could have major implications for the ACC title picture.
