Georgia Tech Football Defensive Grade Re

When Georgia Tech has faced two good offenses this season (Ole Mi s and Florida State), the Yellow Jackets have not been able to keep up with the Lou Gehrig Jersey playmakers that both of those teams have. The defense needed a bounceback against a poor Virginia Tech offense and that is what they got.Virginia Tech may have finished with 27 points, but the defense only gave up two touchdowns. The Yellow Jackets forced four turnovers and got five sacks against the Hokies, including the game-winning fumble recovery on the final po se sion.So how did each defensive position grade out for Georgia Tech against Virginia Tech?Defensive Line: AThe Georgia Tech defensive line was good on Saturday and the leader of the group was D'Quan Douse. Douse finished the day with seven tackles, two and a half sacks, and a forced fumble. For his performance, Douse received a 90.6 grade on PFF (Pro Football Focus) and that is an elite mark for the defensive tackle Giancarlo Stanton Jersey .Kyle Kennard had one sack, Keion White had five tackles, and Makius Scott had two tackles and a fumble recovery.The elite play of Douse led the group, but it was a solid effort all around.Linebackers: BThe linebackers were led by the performance of Charlie Thomas on Saturday, who had a career high 16 tackles against the Hokies. Thomas was everywhere for Georgia Tech and also one sack and a forced fumble. His grade on PFF was a 75.3, including a very good 87.8 grade in coverage.This was not the best performance from Eley, who has been one of Sonny Gray Jersey the best linebackers in the conference. Eley notched four tackles on the day, which is uncommonly low for him. His PFF grade reflected the tough day and the final grade would be 56.7, which was third lowest on the defense Masahiro Tanaka Jersey .Thomas had a fantastic performance for the Yellow Jackets and I fully expect Eley to rebound this week against Miami.Secondary: AThe Hokies admittedly don't have a great pa sing game, but the Yellow Jackets secondary did its job on Saturday.Freshman Clayton Powell-Lee got his first career interception in the fourth quarter of Saturday's win. Powell-Lee also had sisx tackles, which was third on the team Yogi Berra Jersey and led the defensive backs.Zamari Walton and K.J. Wallace had good days covering wide receivers, as did Myles Sims.There was no standout elite performance from one individual, but they worked well together as a unit.Follow us on social media for the latest with Georgia Tech Athletics!Facebook: Twitter: Follow Jackson on Twitter: See all of the latest Tech News at Check out the Listen to the for the best Georgia Tech and national college football coverage!More Georgia Tech Related Content:
