Kickoff between Georgia Tech and Virginia Tech is less than 24 hours away.
The Yellow Jackets and Hokies are scheduled to play tomorrow in Blacksburg, a big game for both programs. Georgia Tech could clinch a bowl berth with a win over Virginia Tech, keeping the Hokies’ hopes of advancing to the ACC title game alive.
However, Georgia Tech is a very competitive football team coming into this game. He was without quarterback Haynes King, linebacker Kyle Efford and cornerback Rodney Shelley on Saturday, and during Thursday’s media availability, Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key said all of those players were missing. provided the latest information.
“Kyle continues to practice, but you know he still has a limited amount of practice and we’ll see on Saturday what kind of situation he’s in. Maybe he’ll go out and see what happens. It’s going to be a real pre-game to see what we can do and what we can’t do, but I think the other guys know as well.” We’re getting reps and preparing for if we can’t do it.
He (Rodney Shelley) was close last week, so if he continues his current trend, I’m very hopeful. I know it’s doubtful, doubtful, probable. I have high hopes for many of them now.
Trey Cooley practiced more this week than he has in a while. So I’m happy to see him come back and start progressing at a good pace. Again, he’s in that H category and I’m hopeful. And Haynes, if you want to play right now, that’s good enough. I’m still going to have him every day, but I can say I’m hopeful that he can go. But they have different schedules. He is improving every day. However, expectations border on doubt. But if it was definitely something that would come out now, I would say so. But I’m still holding out hope. But I also have confidence in the other players. ”
If Haynes King is unavailable, Zach Pyron will start for the second time this season. Pyron’s first start was in 2022 against Virginia Tech, a 28-27 win over the Hokies.
