Georgia Tech looking to 'bounce back' after loss

Posted: Updated:
ATLANTA -

Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson is expecting "a bounce-back game" when the Yellow Jackets play Presbyterian in their home opener on Saturday night.

The Yellow Jackets had only five days to regroup after Monday night's 20-17 overtime loss at No. 15 Virginia Tech. The players were off Tuesday and Friday, leaving only two practice days, including none in full pads.

There was little time to implement a game plan for Presbyterian, a Football Championship Subdivision team that played in Division II until 2007. Johnson says his focus will be on his team showing improvement.

There are expected to be at least three new starters for Georgia Tech on offense: running back Zach Laskey, wide receiver Darren Waller and offensive tackle Bryan Chamberlain.
