Georgia Tech vs Florida State: Live Updates

Georgia Tech is on the road in Tallahassee today against Florida State and the Yellow Jackets are trying to get back in the win column after losing against Virginia last week.

The big news that most were waiting on was the status of quarterback Jeff Sims. The news came out that Sims will be available in emergency situations only and it would be backup quarterback Zach Gibson and true freshmen Zach Pyron to lead the Yellow Jackets' offense.

Gibson is going to need a better performance than he had last week against Virginia. The offensive line is going to need to protect him against a good Florida State pass rush.

Georgia Tech has won two in a row against Florida State and four of the last six. The Yellow Jackets are going to have quite the challenge in front of them today and are going to need a great performance from the defense for this team to have a chance on the road today.

1st Quarter

Georgia Tech is going to be getting the ball first here in Tallahassee.

Zach Gibson is taking the field as the starting quarterback for the Yellow Jackets.

Three and out for the offense and then an unsportsmanlike conduct penalty on the punt. Not an ideal start for Georgia Tech.

Florida State was driving down the field, but a couple of miscues on third and fourth down gave the ball back to the Yellow Jackets. It was the kind of stand this team needed after the three and out by the offense.

Gibson took a sack on the second drive and Georgia Tech went three and out again. After a bad punt, FSU gets the ball back in good field position. 10:34 left in the first quarter, the score is 0-0

Charlie Thomas with a fumble recovery and takes it into Florida State territory!

Zach Pyron is in the game now for Georgia Tech and the offense still goes three and out.

Gavin Stewart nails the field goal and Georgia Tech leads Florida State 3-0. Still not a first down for the offense. Florida State mistakes helping out quite a bit so far today.

A touchdown run by Lawrance Toafili gives Florida State the lead. 7-3 Seminoles.

Florida State leads Georgia Tech 7-3 after the first quarter. The offense has not been good and Florida State has helped out Georgia Tech quite a bit with some mistakes.

Georgia Tech's offense did not have a first down in the first quarter.

2nd Quarter:

Jordan Travis finds Johnny Wilson for a 78-yard touchdown. Florida State now leads 14-3. 10:34 left in the first half.

Florida State was driving, but Georgia Tech forced a fumble, and the Yellow Jackets recover! Another FSU mistake helps Georgia Tech.

Travis hits Toafili for a 68-yard touchdown and this one is getting ugly. FSU leads 21-3. 2:52 left in the first half.

Florida State drives and gets a field goal at the end of the first half. The Seminoles lead 24-3 at halftime and it could have been much worse.

Some first-half stats in this one: FSU outgained Georgia Tech 360-24, Yellow Jackets have 17 yards on eight pass attempts, and Georgia Tech is averaging 0.4 yards per rush. If not for two Florida State turnovers, this game would be uglier.

3rd Quarter

Georgia Tech attempts an onside kick coming out of halftime and recovers it. The offense has great field position.

Zach Pyron finds E.J. Jenkins for the 32-yard touchdown. Great drive for the offense and now the lead has been cut to 24-10 with 13:06 left in the 3rd quarter. Everything was set up by the onside kick. First career touchdown pass for Pyron.

Ja'Khi Douglas with the touchdown for FSU. Lead back to 21 now. 31-10 Florida State with 8:20 left in the 3rd quarter.

That is the end of the 3rd quarter and Florida State is knocking on the door again. 31-10 heading into the fourth.
