Twitter Reactions To Georgia Tech's Mississippi State Tribute

Think that the Mississippi State decals that Georgia Tech wore last night were a trivial move that may not have been recognized? Think again. On the night that Nick Bell's memorial service was held, the tribute was seen and appreciated by the entire Bulldog community. Here are just some of the responses on Twitter:
