Clinton Lynch returned to the lineup in a big way. He hauled in a 33-yard pass from quarterback TaQuon Marshall to move into the red zone. From there, Shawn Davis knocked a 37-yard field goal through the uprights -- to gracious cheers from the Georgia Tech faithful.  That made the score 3-0 with 5:37 left. The score remained that way at the end of the first quarter.
