Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets (2-0, 1-0)

Last week: Won 35-10 against Mercer
Last rank: 3rd


The Jackets start the rankings of teams that won this week. They also start the debate of what is more impressive. Three of the top four teams are 2-0. However, none have played a schedule equivalent to the others, making these top four very fluid and difficult to rank.

The Yellow Jackets drop a spot this week as neither of their wins has been over impressive. They are 2-0 but they were 2-0 last season and went 1-9 the rest of the way. Justin Thomas only threw for 80 yards, though he only threw the ball 10 times. Georgia Tech did look good running the ball as they ran for 364 yards. This week they welcome in Vanderbilt. The Commodores are 1-1 but haven’t beaten anyone good.
