The Yellow Jackets re-entered after a one-week hiatus, placing No. 20 in the USA Today's coaches poll and No. 22 in the AP media poll. Tech also ranked 20th in the BCS standings.
Tech's heartstopping 31-28 win over Florida State this weekend sets up a noon showdown on Saturday. The Jackets (7-2, 4-2) visit North Carolina (6-2, 2-2), ranked No. 19 in both polls. They are two of five Coastal Division teams with two losses; for now, everyone is chasing Tech.
The Jackets became bowl eligible for the 12th straight year, but defensive end Michael Johnson said that was never the goal. "That's old news, going to a bowl," he said. "We want to compete for championships around here. That's the attitude we want to have and the way we want to carry ourselves, not just going to a bowl. That's nothing."
