Live scores, highlights and updates from the Virginia vs. Georgia Tech football game

Georgia Tech has enjoyed the comforts of home their last two games, but now they'll head out on the road. They will take on the Virginia Cavaliers at 2:00 p.m. ET on Saturday at David A. Harrison III Field at Scott Stadium. Virginia is favored, but seeing as the odds didn't stop Georgia Tech in their last game, maybe the squad has another upset up their sleeve.

Even though North Carolina scored an imposing 42 points on Saturday, Georgia Tech still came out on top. Georgia Tech snuck past North Carolina with a 46-42 win. The win came about thanks to a strong surge starting at the 4:30 mark of the first quarter, when they were facing a 14-0 deficit.

Haynes King continued his habit of posting crazy stat lines, throwing for 287 yards and four touchdowns while completing 76.7% of his passes, and also rushing for 90 yards on only eight carries. King was no stranger to the big play, turning on the jets for a run that went for 52 yards. Dontae Smith was another key contributor, rushing for 178 yards and a touchdown while picking up 8.1 yards per carry.

Meanwhile, Virginia fought the good fight in their overtime match against Miami (FL) on Saturday but wound up with a less-than-desirable result. They fell just short of the Hurricanes by a score of 29-26. Virginia gained 101 more yards on the day, but it was Miami (FL) that made the best of use of them.

Virginia's loss shouldn't obscure the performances of Mike Hollins, who rushed for 49 yards and two touchdowns, and Malik Washington who picked up 152 receiving yards. Washington hasn't dropped below 100 receiving yards for three straight games. Will Bettridge did his part by putting the 'special' in special teams, booting in four field goals and two extra points.

Georgia Tech's win lifted them to 4-4 while Virginia's loss dropped them down to 2-6.

While only Georgia Tech took care of their fans the last time they played, both teams pleased bettors by covering the spread. Looking ahead, the game is expected to be close, with Virginia going off as just a 2-point favorite. For those looking to play the spread, keep Virginia in mind: they have a solid 6-2 record against the spread this season.

Georgia Tech came up short against Virginia in their previous matchup back in October of 2022, falling 16-9. Can Georgia Tech avenge their defeat or is history doomed to repeat itself? We'll find out soon enough.
