How to watch Georgia Tech football vs. Mercer: TV channel, streaming info
Georgia Tech football’s timing to play Mercer couldn’t be better.
The Yellow Jackets are off to an 0-2 start for the first time since George H.W. Bush was president (1989). ACC play begins next week at Stanford.
On Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium, Tech hosts the Bears from Macon with a chance to get a victory against an FCS opponent and get rolling before the conference hunt begins.
Losses to Colorado and Tennessee showed the Jackets have improvements to make. There are 10 games left and plenty of goals left to accomplish.
“Everybody hears it,” Tech coach Brent Key about the 0-2 start. “What choice are you going to do with it? Embrace the challenge? Every week is a challenge. I really look at it like that. Every season is a challenge.”
