This could be one of the fastest games of the season, as both teams are heavy on the rush.

Rushing:
Air Force: 699 rushes, 3815 yards, 40 TD
Georgia Tech: 696 rushes, 3924 yards, 30 TD

GT has a lot of starters out the first half I think. Hooray for option football!

I like Georgia Tech in a low-scoring, fast game, 14-10.

Over/under 2 hours, 20 minutes from opening kickoff to final score?

Air Force's uniforms closely resemble Florida Atlantic's.

Not to say this game was boring, but even the Academy mascot left before the end of the game.

He left before the beginning of the game.

I kind of enjoyed this game. I like option football, and thought both teams played great on the defensive side of things. Air Force had a huge 10 minute drive in the 4th quarter that chewed up a ton of clock that was a thing of beauty right up until they missed the FG that would have sealed it up

I thought it was good sound strategic football. Not many penalties and a lot of hard runs. It was a great game to watch.

Much more low scoring than I thought it would be.

Great job by the Air Force D to hold Georgia Tech to 7.
