The win put the Yellow Jackets into the top 25 as they see themselves ranked 22nd in the nation. Brent Keys' squad also picked up a blowout win over Georgia State last weekend.

Running back Jamal Haynes leads the Jackets backfield. Haynes has rushed for 159 yards this season.

The Tech defense has looked much improved to start the season.

Syracuse comes into the contest after a 38-22 win over Ohio on Saturday.

Syracuse has had just one winning season since 2019, but the Orange believe they are talented enough to compete in the ACC this year.

Georgia Tech vs. Syracuse Betting Pick

The wrong team is favored today.

The Orange is my favorite play of the weekend, as I am extremely high on this team coming into the season.

McCord showed he could handle top-tier defenses in the Big Ten last year.

Georgia Tech is being overvalued for their win over Florida State.

After watching Florida State on Monday, I realized the win did not look as good as we thought.
