Georgia Tech quarterback TaQuon Marshall quickly forgot about the pick-six he threw a pass prior to throwing a long touchdown pass.

With the Yellow Jackets trailing Virginia Tech 22-21 in the fourth quarter Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium -- because of the Marshall pick-six -- he gave them the lead on a bomb to wide receiver Ricky Jeune.

Marshall found Jeune down the seam and the redshirt senior outran the defense to the pylon for an 80-yard touchdown to put the Yellow Jackets ahead 28-22 with 6:30 left in the fourth quarter.
