The Yellow Jackets improved to 2-0 for the first time since 2016, with strong performances on both offense and defense, including a crucial goal-line stand that kept Georgia State from scoring early in the game. Georgia Tech's offense amassed 499 total yards, while their defense limited Georgia State to just one successful red zone attempt. King connected with multiple receivers, notably Malik Rutherford, who had seven receptions for 131 yards and a touchdown.
