Florida State football headed to Dublin for the Aer Lingus College Football Classic vs. Georgia Tech looking to move past a sour ending to the 2023 season.
However, the Yellow Jackets had other plans as the team projected to finish ninth in the ACC Preseason Poll pulled off the upset over the No. 10 Seminoles Saturday at Aviva Stadium.
And the Yellow Jackets did it in walk-off fashion as kicker Aidan Birr hit a 44-yard field goal to seal a 24-21 victory for Georgia Tech and ultimately make the flight back to Tallahassee for the Seminoles a long one. Florida State did not have the ball for the last 6:33 of the game as Georgia Tech ran the clock down on the ground.
