On Saturday against the Tar Heels, White produced three sacks, four tackles for loss, and seven tackles. It was not only the best defensive linemen performance of the week but also one of the best of the entire season. 

Georgia Tech held UNC to its season low in points, in total yards, and Heisman-contending quarterback Drake Maye to his season low in total passing yards. 

White is now tied for second in the ACC in sacks with 7.5 and is fifth in the ACC in tackles for loss with 13. 

White is being looked at as one of the best pass-rushing prospects for the 2023 NFL Draft and after a performance like this, his stock will only go higher. 

Georgia Tech is going to be back in action this Saturday at noon against No. 1 Georgia. The game will be on ESPN.
