Florida State vs Georgia Tech Full Game HIGHLIGHTS Aug 23,2024 | NCAAM College Football |NCAAF Today

really excited about this game here today game that has started off with offensive Firepower as both teams drive a piece a touchdown each and neither face here is Lucas again getting work as he stays on his feet and is able to Dart his way to the outside so jayon Lucas already having a presence in this offense Joe one of the things I was most excited in this game was to see one of the better offensive Minds in college football norell and how he was going to use jayen Lucas this really interesting tool you've seen different ways you've seen jet sweeps already in this game lined up at running back handing it off that time he gets a reverse I'll say it again he could be the most exciting guy to watch when it's all said and done for Florida State this season second and seven I young back to pass a little bit of pressure as he steps up and is taken down at the 30 yd line by Joshua Robinson well and this is critical for Georgia Tech on defense because a year ago they only had 21 sacks they were not good at getting after the quarterback and this is an area they've got to be better at this season you see some pressure coming off the right hand side forces dju to step up they're able to take him down now here on it what looks like an obvious passing situation who can be the guy that can win one-on-one for George Tech who's the guy they can rely on to consistently get pressure first third down faced by either team today day third and five dju gets it complete as he's able to find to aely and to aely still working his way all the way past Midfield well you saw to aili on the touchdown run and what he could do from the running back position how about now you line him up a wide receiver in the slot just running a simple little drag over the middle of the field not the most accurate throw that's a tough catch with a Defender right behind him but his ability and his speed he really is a big weapon quick to the line EJ gets it out a low throw to the 45 yd line looking for Malik Benson Malik Benson the transfer from Alabama who's considered the best athlete of this group a very talented receiver well I think receiver to me Joe that's the big question for Florida State this year on offense you lose Keon Coleman you lose Johnny Wilson to the NFL those guys were studs so who can step up now you got guys like Malik Benson in from Alabama you've got Jaylen Brown a transfer from LSU who can be cons assistent in the passing game for dju Cam Davis much talked about true freshman in the back field tap pass to douglas jakai douglas is able to get it just past the line to gain before Amari Harvey makes the tackle but jakai Douglas who we have seen for years really the old man of the group of norville's first signing class to try and reload what was lost from last season first down nolles here's Cam Davis and he drops the pass Cam Davis who has been the eye-opening true freshman with the big build unable to hold on in the driving Reign here in dubl well you just wonder if that's first game nerves right this is a guy who's highly highly recruited the number five ranked running back by ESPN coming out of high school I know the ball is wet right now that's just one that hits him in the face mat ask and that's a catch that that he needs to make Mike norell is not going to quit on him he's going to get more opportunities as this game goes on he's a guy they want to get lathered up and get going cuz he is [Applause] talented Williams on second and 10 a good run fit that time just met in the hole by Kyle eford so George Tech brought in a new defensive coordinator from duke Tyler santui his defense last year led the ACC giving up only 19 points a game but his big value is on third down he's got a lot of exotic looks he comes from the Mike Elco School of Defense where they line different guys up in different places some guys have their hands down others don't they're trying to confuse the offensive line they're trying to confuse the quarterback on these critical D ands third down and six here's Williams on the carry a flag is down as he was taken down and that was romelo height who made the tackle we will check on the flag Jerry maganus leads this ACC crew and we'll be holding against Florida State third straight year that this game has been the week zero college football opener Mike norvell's fifth season last year let this team know a 13-0 mark as the ACC Champs before the Orange Bowl we all know what happened there holding offense number 75 penalty is declined fourth [Applause] down they got a holding call that time on the Right Guard Keandre Jones trying to get a block on Kyle eord I think I think what Florida state was trying to do there was just run the ball get more yards than that and then go for it on four they kind of feel like they're in four down territory sort of No Man's Land right now so Brent key decides to decline the penalty dju still on the field ball to 33 yd line so sort of that middle ground no man's land trust your offense if you're feeling it which is the case here on Fourth and four empty look for Dj oui angay now toofy will join him in the back field fourth down and four as he gets it to to aely but he is met right Away Great effort from Amari Harvey it's a really good decision by dju because there was a free Blitzer he was hot and he went to his right Target and to a but it's a better Tackle by amario transfer cornerback in space that's just a tackle you've got to make comes up with a huge stop Georgia Tech's going to start with some pretty good field position Joe hints ASAP let's go two hands God this broadcast will get sideways won't it oh 8 to7 here at a via Stadium good did that just looked big stop moments ago from Georgia Tech defense turnover on Downs as Amari Harvey came up with the tackle and now Haynes King back to business Jamal Haynes on the carry and he is driven back W this here Daniel Lions a d tackle able to get the push through and make the Stop and Blake down their opening drive they only did that three times last year it was the fewest in the ACC so for your Brent Brent key here want to see them capitalize again here's Haynes out of the back Fielding tremendous Pursuit down the line now from this Florida State Defense that was Conrad hust and you're seeing this he is their Alpha pass rusher 65 250 lbs he's long he's Twitchy and Georgia Tech does not want one tackle blocking him by himself on an island his third down and 16 Haynes King looking for anything but well coralled as he could only make his way out towards the 30 yd line as f a three and out now after turning it over after that fourth down stop Georgia Tech able to get setting themselves up in good field position themselves Castle Island County carries very own David Shanahan punting here in his home country of Ireland as he puts it outside the numbers and it dribbles inside the 25 yd line week zero action is going to continue tonight or not here in D there's just been a great energy all week and just I think anticipation right Joe it's an exciting New Year the new 12 team format the college football playoff but kicking it off here in beautiful W just phenomenal got the new rules you got the coach to- player Communications got the changing landscape with conference re linan and of course the 12 team college football playoff as quickly to the outside is Morlock as that'll be a first down for Florida state looks that play fake by dju that's just sort of freezing the linebackers in the middle of the field from Georgia Tech and that allows the tight end and Morlock to get out in the flat for another easy completion that we haven't really seen dju push it down field yet right Joe it's been a lot of short easy throws just trying to keep the offense in Rhythm yeah he's seven of eight for 62 yards and the incompletion should have been caught by the Freshman running back Cam Davis that goes for 12 yds final minute here for what's been an exciting first quarter Williams and bursting through and able to get to him was Butler the true freshman linebacker Butler does a great job reading his keys that time to Right Guard and tight play by a young player I got to be honest this is a Georgia Tech defense that really struggled a year ago Joe but a new defensive coordinator some new faces on that side of the ball and they look like a unit just playing with a lot of confidence right now now welcome back college football as we come to the end of one to aely had the 28 yd Touch This is the end of the first quarter Florida State went with the swinging gate two-point conversion Georgia Tech
