The big Georgia Tech football news of the week was Todd Stansbury’s announcement that Geoff Collins will return for the 2022 season. Among the follow-up questions is whether the news will boost the Yellow Jackets enough for them to give No. 1 Georgia a challenge Saturday afternoon.

Tech fans always love it when the Jackets defeat Georgia, but a victory against a Georgia team ranked No. 1 could leave the fan base thinking it might never get better than this.

That likely won’t happen this year, though, and Tech is 0-2 all-time against a No. 1-ranked Georgia team. They haven’t played such a Georgia team since 1982. The Tech program would benefit from beating the 35-point spread.

Here is some important information regarding how to follow the action:

Date: Saturday, Nov. 27

Time: Noon ET

Location: Bobby Dodd Stadium, Atlanta

Records: No. 1 Georgia, 11-0, 8-0 SEC; Georgia Tech, 3-8, 2-6 ACC
