On October 24, 2015, Georgia Tech did the impossible.

The No. 9 ranked Florida State Seminoles were seconds away from victory at Bobby Dodd Stadium when kicker Roberto Aguayo’s game-winning field goal attempt was blocked.

Georgia Tech defensive back Lance Austin scooped up the loose ball with no time remaining and the game tied at 16 and returned it for 78 yards and the game-winning touchdown.

With the win, the Yellow Jackets defeated the undefeated, reigning national champions, 22-16.
