Georgia Tech finished off its first conventional touchdown drive of the day on Saturday against Jacksonville State with a TaQuon Marshall touchdown run.

With their first four touchdowns all coming on possessions that lasted six plays or fewer, the Jackets ran some clock early in the fourth quarter with a 10-play, 65-yard drive that lasted 5:33. Nine of the 10 plays were runs, and Marshall’s 1-yard carry gave Tech a 37-10 lead with 9:27 left in the game.
