    Overview

    The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets represent the Georgia Institute of Technology, competing in the Atlantic Coast Conference from Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field—the oldest continuously used site for college football in the FBS. The Yellow Jackets blend academic rigor with competitive football, running the unique triple-option attack for years under Paul Johnson. Tech sits in the heart of Atlanta, giving the program access to one of the nation's richest recruiting and media markets. The Ramblin' Wreck and the fight song are among college football's most recognizable traditions. Georgia Tech competes in the ACC while maintaining fierce rivalries with Georgia and Clemson.

    History & Legacy

    Georgia Tech football began in 1892, and John Heisman coached the Yellow Jackets from 1904 to 1919, winning a 222-0 game and establishing Tech as an early power. The Yellow Jackets have claimed four national championships, most recently a share of the 1990 title. Calvin Johnson, Joe Hamilton, and Billy Lothridge are among the many legends. The rivalry with Georgia—Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate—is one of the sport's oldest and most bitter, dating to 1893. Bobby Dodd, the stadium's namesake, built Tech into a national power in the 1950s. Georgia Tech's identity as an engineering school that competes at the highest level has endured for over a century.
