Title: Another from the vault...1987 Georgia Tech

This was the game that made Aundray Bruce the #1 pick in the draft...3 interceptions (2 are shown) and had a direct hand in two of our TDs that day.  Georgia Tech was not a good team that year (2-9), but gave us all we wanted and then some.

Burger to Tillman gave us the lead late (around a minute to go)...I can still hear Jim Fyffe's "TILLMAN! TILLMAN!"

This was the last game with Tech being an annual rival...the Tiger Rags shirt for them was "Wreck Tech...Once And For All".  We have played a home-and-home with them since, but this game was the end of an era.
