The two teams ended the quarter by trading turnovers, started by Anthony Allen for Georgia Tech fumbling on the MTSU 45 yard line. The fumble lost was Georgia Tech's 9th on the season, tied for third worst in the nation. The Blue Raiders drove down to the red zone, but Tech sophomore Julian Burnett came up with his first career interception.
Stat watch: Tech quarterback Joshua Nesbitt already has 60 yards rushing; if he can get another 90 he will have the most rushing yards for any quarterback in ACC history.
