It was a dominant day for Georgia Tech on the offensive side of the ball. The Yellow Jackets racked up 38 points in the first half and finished with over 500 yards of total offense. Quarterback Haynes King threw for 275 yards and three touchdowns in the first half and wide receiver Eric Singleton Jr racked up over 100 yards receiving in the first half alone.
