Recap

Georgia Tech quarterback Haynes King delivered a stellar performance with three rushing touchdowns, including the game-winning 45-yard sprint with just 1:07 remaining, to push the Yellow Jackets past Colorado 27-20 at Folsom Field. The back-and-forth battle featured three ties, with Colorado's Kaidon Salter contributing both through the air and on the ground to keep the Buffaloes competitive.
