Brad Stewart listed as starter for Georgia Tech Season Opener

I searched for previous Herbstreit predictions and found 32 predictions for division winners, conference champions and, last year, College Football Playoff participants.

Thirteen freshmen are listed on the 55-player depth chart for offense and defense, headlined by first-year frosh Brad Stewart who earned a starting job at wide receiver, per the AJC.

“(Curry has) done some good things.

On Saturday, Georgia Tech picked up its third offensive lineman commitment for the class of 2016.

That means Gray and sophomores Shawn Kagawa, Corey Griffin and John Marvin are getting extensive looks at safety. Now, he’s being asked if the Yellow Jackets are positioned to maintain a sustained level of success in a state where they’ve generally played second-fiddle to the Georgia Bulldogs, the Southeastern Conference powerhouse that dominates the local fan base. The Yellow Jackets are 6-1 straight up in their last 7 games against all opponents. He had three tackles in both the Orange Bowl and the ACC championship game.

The two cornerback spots are held down by seniors Chris Milton and D.J. White, with Lynn Griffin, Step Durham and Lance Austin as the established backups. Dotson appears to be ahead of the other two.

I have no doubt that Head Coach Paul Johnson is making sure that these preseason awards and picks the Ramblin’ Wreck is receiving are not going to his players heads.

While it certainly feels good that the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets, let alone an Atlanta sports team has gained some notoriety in the eyes of the usually biased ESPN, the Jackets need to temper their optimism for the time being and take each game one at a time. “I think everybody’s ready to play a game”, Johnson said. “We’re just trying to go out, play well, and win the game”.
