2005 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets

Look for a competitive 2005 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets team on the field this season. Our football predictions are normally right on the dot, so if you want to use futures or just weekly picks for your college football betting, then this site is going to help you win more money off of your sportsbooks.

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets should be a competitive force in the ACC this season. They return 17 starters from last year’s team including one of the top rushers in the conference, P.J. Daniels, and last year’s ACC Rookie of the Year, wide receiver Calvin Johnson. The offensive line is the biggest question on the offensive side of the ball, where the Yellow Jackets will need to almost completely rebuild. Georgia Tech returns 10 starters on a defense that ranked 12th in the entire nation in yards allowed last season and is led by returning all-ACC middle linebacker Gerris Wilkinson. 

With many key players returning, including starting QB and 2003 Rookie of the Year Reggie Ball, the Yellow Jackets are poised to have a very good season. They don’t have the recruiting classes or the NFL talent of the Miamis or Virginia Techs of the conference, but they do have a great defense and core of leaders returning, something that many teams in this half of the conference are lacking.
