FTRS Picks 2025 Week 13: Earn It
Pick results summary here. The top pickers from last week were slotjack and YankeeJAcket who both correctly picked 8 games out of 11 games. This was particularly impressive as the pick average for last week was 4.7 correct picks. Great job guys! donkeygoatrunner had a tough week but remains in the overall lead with 85 […]
CFP Rankings Week 12 – Jackets 16th
Welcome to week three of the 2025 College Football Playoff rankings, one that was bound to feel weird no matter what because while the then 16th ranked Georgia Tech did indeed beat Boston College last Saturday, it was not a win that matched the feeling of being a 9 win team for the first time […]
Tuesday Thoughts 11/18: Breaking Point
[long cigarette drag] Game Recap in Three Sentences The defense did everything they could to lose but the offense and Aidan Birr overcame. Haynes King had another banner day through the air, powering the offense to over 600 total yards. Key inexplicably called the timeout to set up the FG with 12 seconds left instead […]
Scions E291: ACC Football Semifinalists, Somehow
Akshay and Jack review #16 Georgia Tech’s concerning 36-34 win over Boston College where the defense…barely defended again. With the win, the Jackets are one ACC win away from making the ACC Championship. Then, a look into the week for Georgia Tech basketball, volleyball, and some big news out of men’s tennis. Like the show? […]
#16 Georgia Tech does barely enough to beat BC 36-34
You ever feel like your team sucks? Well, that’s Georgia Tech no matter what our record is, and that’s exactly what it felt like for the overwhelming majority of Tech’s 36-34 win over 1-win Boston College. The Jackets overgame an 11-point 2nd half deficit with a 54 yard touchdown by Jordan Allen then a game-winning […]
#16 Georgia Tech @ Boston College Game Thread/Where to Watch
Did y’all have a nice week off? We all sure did here, but holy cow could we not be more nervous to play a 1-win team knowing what’s at stake for our #16 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets. The 8-1 Jackets will head up to Chestnut Hill, Massachusetts to play a very, very bad Boston College […]
GT Football Snarky Preview: Game 10 (Boston College)
After a much-needed week off, the Jackets return to action by heading north to Chestnut Hill to take on some guys who used to be dudes. The man who spawned the phrase “guys being dudes,” Steve Addazio, hasn’t been Boston College’s coach since he was fired in 2019. His crime: being the second coming of […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Boston College
Welcome to the final three weeks of college football – otherwise known as chaos season. We enter this final stretch with an impressive 8-1 record, coming off our second and final bye of the year. Now the spotlight shifts to how this team responds to its first setback as we head north to take on […]
Georgia Tech Basketball: Week 1 Review
Georgia Tech’s first 3 games are in the books and GT is 3-0. Things have not looked that great against weak competition, but at the very least GT has not made any huge missteps that would haunt them in the tournament committee room. Everything is recoverable if this team starts to play better. The Jackets […]
CFP Rankings Week 11 – Jackets 16th

The ACC carnage from last weekend has given us some new neighbors, here are the teams now sitting around us: 13th: Utah (7-2) 14th: Vanderbilt (8-2) 15th: Miami (7-2) 16th: Georgia Tech (8-1) 17th: […]
FTRS Picks 2025 Week 12: Best Bye Week Ever

Scions E290: Cut us open, see what we bleed
Jack, Jake, and Askhay are back this week to go through Georgia Tech Athletic Director Ryan Alpert’s latest letter to the Yellow Jacket fanbase, preview the Georgia Tech/Boston College game, and review where Tech stands in the ACC race after losses by Virginia and Louisville. Plus, we make sure y’all know that Brent Key ain’t […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – Bye Week
I was hoping I would wake up from this nightmare on Sunday morning, but sadly, it wasn’t just a dream. Besides the 2013 and 2024 losses to UGA, this might be the most painful loss I have endured as a Georgia Tech fan. The hype and aspirations of this season were so high that the […]
CFP Rankings Released – Jackets 17th
The first iteration of the College Football Playoff rankings for 2025 have been released and for the first time since 2014 the Jackets have made the cut!

Tuesday Thoughts 11/4: Waste
Regression to the mean comes for everyone but man, this was embarrassing. Game Recap in Three Sentences The offense punted once all night but had to settle for too many FG attempts in the red zone. The defense played their worst game we’ve seen in a while, giving up nearly 9 yards per play and […]
FTRS Picks 2025 Week 11: Onwards and Upwards
Pick results summary here. The top pickers from last week had a tie at 8 correct picks. Congrats to both kjjrb555 and Gtbadcarma. No other real changes on the leader board. Let’s get to it. I hate when the media is right. People have been waiting for Georgia Tech to trip up, and it finally […]

#8 Georgia Tech smashed by NC State 48-36
The NC State recap is brought to you by Section 103, home of the exclusive Mini 500 Homecoming themed shirt, which can still be yours for 10% using code FTRS. A week after #8 Georgia Tech’s resounding homecoming win, they traveled to NC State only to walk into their homecoming trap, losing 48-36 to move to […]
#8 Georgia Tech @ NC State Game Thread/Where To Watch
For 9-0, the #8 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets head up to Raleigh, North Carolina for what hopefully will not be their final trip to the state. NC State has sold out Carter-Finley Stadium for their homecoming game. Tech brings back some of their injured players from last week but still are without Ahmari Harvey. TV: ESPN2 […]
Georgia Tech Basketball: Incoming Transfers
With only 3 returning players from last season, there was a big need to bring in some talent and experience. Damon Stoudamire ended up bringing in 4 new faces to supplement the roster, a few of which should play significant roles this season. Given Georgia Tech basketball’s NIL budget (or lack thereof), Stoudamire was mostly […]
Georgia Tech Football: Things I Think I Know – NC State
8-0, you are oh so sweet. Last week, we inched closer to Charlotte with a convincing win over a struggling Syracuse team. There is not much time to celebrate, however, because we head back on the road to play the NC State Wolfpack. Quarterback CJ Bailey gave us trouble last year, as he is a […]
FTRS Picks 2025 Week 10: Spooky Season
Pick results summary here. The top picker from last week was GTStinger who correctly picked 9 games out of 11. donkeygoatrunner remains the top picker with 66 correct picks, closely followed by YankeeJacket with 64 picks. Congrats to GTStinger and good luck to everyone this week. I was on the road last weekend at Zion […]
2024-25 Basketball Recap and Returning Players
2024-25 Recap I came into the 2024-25 season with some hope, and it was dashed almost immediately when Georgia Tech was run off the floor at McCamish by North Florida. The Yellow Jackets followed that up by looking largely uncompetitive in all 4 of their non-conference games against major competition (Georgia, Cincinnati, Oklahoma, and Northwestern). […]
Syracuse on 35mm
35mm shots from the sidelines last Saturday, shot on a mix of Kodak Gold 200 and Kodak UltraMax 400. Thanks to Bleach Film Lab in Avondale Estates for the expert development and scanning! First, highlighting some of my favorites: And the full gallery:
Tuesday Thoughts 10/28: Nothing to See Here
What a lovely fall day in Bobby Dodd Stadium. Game Recap in Three Sentences The offense was cooking all game, eventually racking up 543 total yards. Syracuse struggled to do anything with the ball consistently and only managed two drives of over eight plays. We finally got to see the offense throw the ball around […]
