Georgia Tech head coach Brent Key has a simple message for Yellow Jacket fans this weekend. Get there early and be loud.

With Georgia Tech football ranked No. 13 in the latest AP Top 25 poll, excitement around the program. Is it at its highest point in over a decade. The Yellow Jackets return to Bobby Dodd Stadium on Saturday. To face a 2-4 Virginia Tech team looking to spoil Tech’s dream season.

This game comes during Hall of Fame Weekend, when Georgia Tech will honor several former football greats who helped shape the program’s proud history. Coach Key wants the energy in the stadium to reflect that tradition , and to help fuel his players as they chase another win.

The Yellow Jackets are 5–0 heading into the game, their best start since the 1950s. A victory would push them to 6–0 for the first time in nearly seven decades. Continuing what has become one of college football’s biggest storylines of the season.

Coming off a bye week, Brent Key emphasized that momentum is key heading into the second half of the season. Every game now carries major stakes as Tech continues its push toward an ACC title shot, and maybe more.

Saturday’s game might look like a mismatch on paper, but Key knows how easily focus can slip. That is why he’s calling on fans to bring the same energy. That has been energized with Georgia Tech’s rise back into the national spotlight.
