Georgia Tech by 3
prob
Georgia Tech by a field goal on the projection. One drive decides this.
- Georgia Tech has been playing at a level Colorado hasn't reached yet, and that's the whole game right there.
- Verdict has Georgia Tech 28 spots higher at No. 37. Rankings don't tackle anybody, and this is where that gets tested.
- Across a full year Verdict expects Colorado to finish 5-7 and Georgia Tech 7-5 — neither one of these teams is here by accident.
- Colorado sleeps at home and hears its own crowd all afternoon. In a game this close, that is not nothing.
Statistical context only — the win-probability model is unchanged.
