TaQuon Marshall – Noteworthy
Earlier this season, Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson decided to make a change. After Johnson’s Yellow Jackets walked out of Louisville with a 66-31 victory Friday night, it might be time for the Cardinals to make some changes, too. TaQuon Marshall ran for 175 yards and two scores. In all, the Yellow Jackets (3-3, 1-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) ran for a season-high 542 yards, the third-best total in school history and the second most ever yielded by the Cardinals (2-4, 0-3). Tobias Oliver, who relieved Marshall at quarterback late in the third quarter, ran for 108 yards and two scores on eight carries. Three games into season, the Yellow Jackets were 1-2 and coming off a 24-19 loss to Pittsburgh on Sept. 15 where they only gained 320 yards on the ground and had a couple turnovers. Johnson felt the need to focus on just four or five plays for his triple-option offense. – AP College Football
