GT Predicted To Go 8-4 in 09

I can honestly state that teams, coaches, writers, and fans across the country do not expect GT to have bigger success than they did last year. 8-4 is a good season especially with GT's difficult 2009 schedule, however, Paul Johnson and many GT fans believe that GT is just as capable of winning the ACC as any of the other 11 teams.

Walker Sports: ACC Coastal Division Preview Bleacher Report:
"Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets: This is Paul Johnson’s second year at Georgia Tech, and he is out to prove to the critics that last season’s stellar performance was not a fluke. The Yellow Jackets ranked fourth in the nation in rushing last season, and with Jonathan Dwyer returning as the ACC’s leading rusher, you can believe that Georgia Tech’s option attack will have them tops in the country once again.

The ACC got a healthy dose of Georgia Tech’s rushing attack last season, and they will be better prepared for defending it this time around. The key for the Yellow Jackets' success will be the nine returning starters, and their ability to keep things fresh by showing different fronts and schemes.

It won’t be easy, and Georgia Tech will be in a lot of close games, but they have enough in the tank to hold off the rest of the Coastal Division.
