They called the one-point loss before it happened, the only thing Tech executed cleanly all night.
What happened
Georgia Tech opened against Colorado and lost 14-13, which is the kind of margin that feels less like a result than a diagnosis. The turning point came long before the final snap, in a thread where someone typed "We're going to lose by 1 point aren't we?" and ten people upvoted it, because they already knew. The board settled into 0-1 with the resignation of people reading a weather forecast. "This is gonna be a long season," one wrote, and nobody argued. Nobody even tried.
