Q: The sleeper team to watch out for in the BCS race is …
A: Georgia Tech. The Yellow Jackets have gelled under first-year coach Paul Johnson much faster than anyone could have guessed. And since the team is still adjusting to a new offense and an entirely new staff, it’s safe to assume that its best football will be played in the second half. Josh Nesbitt has been a nice fit at quarterback in the option, and the defensive front is dominating opponents, making life easier on the back seven. In a wide-open ACC, 6-1 Tech has as good a chance as anyone to win the league and represent it in a BCS bowl game. Doesn’t it feel like a decade ago that Chan Gailey was perennially underachieving with this program?
