Overview

  • Aidan Birr drilled a career-long 55-yarder as time expired to seal a 24-21 win in Atlanta.
  • The kick snapped Clemson’s nine-game series streak and delivered Georgia Tech’s first victory over the Tigers since 2014.
  • Haynes King went 19-for-27 for 216 yards and rushed 25 times for 103 yards with a 1-yard TD, then Tech converted a Philly Special for a 21-14 edge.
  • Clemson briefly led 14-13 on a 73-yard Bryant Wesco Jr. score and tied it late on Adam Randall’s TD before Tech’s 10-play, 38-yard drive set up the winner.
  • Clemson dropped to 1-2 after Cade Klubnik lost a fumble and threw an interception during a slow start that had the Tigers trailing 13-7 at halftime.
