US EditionThe Latest: Georgia Tech’s misstep shakes up the ACC and maybe the AP Top 25
Georgia Tech's loss to Pittsburgh ended its ACC championship hopes, while wins by Oregon and Oklahoma reshaped College Football Playoff and AP Top 25 standings.
- On Saturday, Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets football team missed clinching an ACC championship-game berth after losing to Pittsburgh Panthers, leaving the team with regrets.
- Week 13 results muddled the Atlantic Coast Conference picture and tightened College Football Playoff considerations after Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets' 8-0 start gave way to a second loss in three games.
- At Bobby Dodd Stadium, a 100-yard pick-6 and Turner's 201 rushing yards swung momentum, as Georgia Tech lost 42-28 to Pittsburgh.
- The defeat removes Georgia Tech from the one-loss ACC cohort and cedes a tiebreaker to Pittsburgh Panthers, leaving Brent Key's team with a meager chance at an at-large berth to the 12-team College Football Playoff field.
- Saturday's slate produced multiple high-profile winners that will factor into the updated rankings, as the AP Top 25 will be updated at 2 p.m. by around 60 voters after Oregon Ducks ended USC Trojans' playoff hopes and Oklahoma Sooners beat Missouri Tigers 17-6.
