Boston College vs. Georgia Tech 2012: Offense was great, defense left something to be desired

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets dismantled the Boston College Eagles on Saturday, 37-17, as was to be expected.

The Yellow Jackets snapped a three-game skid and the team looked complete in the first half as they raced out to a 28-3 lead over the Eagles. The second half was a little bit of a different story, as they were outscored 14-9.

As From the Rumble Seat wrote, a 20-point win against the lowly Eagles looks good on paper. But for improvement's sake, the Yellow Jackets had a lot of mental breaks happen in the second half that shouldn't have occurred. Against lesser quality opponents like the Eagles, it's just easier to make up for them.

Not to say there wasn't a lot of good (1st half), but play like that against most any other team and we won't be so much winning as we will be jumping off of tall objects.

From the Rumble Seat wrote that the secondary was particularly prone to coverage issues, something that occurs way too often when the Yellow Jackets are up by a sizable margin. Both of the Eagles' two touchdowns were results of coverage breakdowns in the Yellow Jackets' defense.

Consider this: in the 1st half, BC had 7 first downs and 120 passing yards. By the end of the game, those numbers had gone up to 15 and 264. That may be linear growth, but a lot more of those yards came on big passing plays, largely up the middle, than before (53 yds in the 1st as opposed to 104 in the 2nd).

Obviously with the score as it was, it wasn't all bad for the Yellow Jackets. The defense was rock solid in the first half and the offense didn't really let up throughout the game. Georgia Tech came close to 400 yards on rushing (391 yards) and only allowed 32 yards on the ground to the Eagles.

Georgia Tech thoroughly dominated the first half, racking up over 400 yards of offense and holding Boston College (1-6, 0-4 ACC) to 123 yards. Yellow Jackets quarterbacks Tevin Washington and Vad Lee each accounted for two scores in the half.

Boston College tried to make a game of it in the second half, as Eagles quarterback Chase Rettig found his groove passing. After going down 31-3, Rettig threw two straight touchdown passes to make the score 31-17 with just over 13 minutes left in the contest. For the game, Rettig completed 19 of 31 passes for 264 yards and two scores.

Boston College Vs. Georgia Tech Score: Eagles surging late, but Tech leads 31-17

The Boston College Eagles have outscored Georgia Tech 14-3 since halftime and the Yellow Jackets' lead now stands at 31-17 in the fourth quarter.

It looked like the Yellow Jackets might deliver the final blow coming out of the locker room as BC's Andre Williams lost a fumble on the kickoff out of halftime. But Georgia Tech settled for a 32-yard Justin Moore field goal instead to put their lead at 31-3.

That would be the last time that the Yellow Jackets put up points in the third quarter, with Moore later missing a 41-yard field goal.

Boston College QB Chase Rettig hooked up with wide receiver Alex Amidon for a 40-yard score late in the third, then added another on a 12-yard touchdown pass to tight end Chris Pantale. Rettig was also able to get the two-point conversion on that second score with Rettig finding wide receiver Johnathan Coleman.

Georgia Tech got the ball again and was driving toward midfield with about 13 minutes left.

Boston College Vs. Georgia Tech Score: Vad Lee, Tevin Washington help Yellow Jackets to 28-3 lead at the half

Georgia Tech is getting plenty of production from the quarterback position on Saturday as the Yellow Jackets lead Boston College 28-3 at the half. Tevin Washington and Vad Lee have combined for all four touchdowns during the first half while helping direct an offense that piled up over 350 yards of total offense.

Washington put the Yellow Jackets on the board first capping off a 90-yard drive with a 12-yard touchdown run in the first quarter. Washington would extend the lead early in the second with his second rushing touchdown of the day this time coming from 1-yard out to give Georgia Tech a 14-0 lead.

After Boston College got on the board with a field goal, Vad Lee checked into the game and further extended the lead with a 24-yard scoring run to make the score 21-3. The red-shirt freshman wasn't finished though coming back out on the next series and connecting with freshman Anthony Autry for a 45-yard scoring strike. So Washington started the game and played well but Lee was under center for the final three possessions of the half.

Zach Laskey leads the Yellow Jackets on the ground with 10 carries for 71 yards. Washington has 41 yards rushing and is 3-6 passing for 77 yards. Lee has 45 yards rushing in the first half and completed 2-5 passes for 89 yards. B.J. Bostic is Tech's leading receiver with two catches for 66 yards.

Chase Rettig is 11-17 for 116 yards but could not get the Eagles into the endzone during the first half. Andre Williams has seven carries for 24 yards while Alex Amidon hauled in four passes for 45 yards.

Boston College Vs. Georgia Tech Score: Yellow Jackets lead 7-0 after one quarter

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets are leading the Boston College Eagles 7-0 after one quarter. Quarterback Tevin Washington has the game's only score, rushing for a 12-yard touchdown 10 minutes into the game. Georgia Tech has amassed 223 yards of total offense after 15 minutes, including 50 passing yards from Washington.

Zach Laskey leads the Tech offense with 59 rushing yards, followed by Washington with 41. Tony Zenon, B.J. Bostic, Robert Godhigh, Orwin Smith and David Sims have also contributed to the Yellow Jacket rushing attack, which has racked up 173 yards through a quarter.

The Boston College offense is off to a slow start so far. Quarterback Chase Rettig is 4-of-6 for 28 yards, and is by far their most productive player.
