Georgia Tech’s undefeated season rolls right along through the middle of October.
Third-year coach Brent Key on Monday, however, continued to insist no one inside his locker room is satisfied.
“The biggest thing we have to do is continue to improve during the week, continue to close that margin and that gap between practice and games, elevate the way we do things,” Key said on SiriusXM on Monday. “(I) met with the team (Sunday) night and told ’em, ‘Everything we’ve done, we gotta do better. We gotta do more.’
“The cool thing about this football team is, we win by three scores on Saturday, but again, everyone sees more. They see more meat on the bone, they know there’s more we can do and there’s better we can play. When you have a hungry team like that, and a hungry coaching staff that’s looking to improve every day, it’s a very uncommon thing. Very uncommon for guys to crave the work and crave the preparation and the training.”
Off to its best start since 2011, the Jackets beat Virginia Tech 35-20 on Saturday at Bobby Dodd Stadium. That victory was their ninth consecutive triumph at home and fifth consecutive over an ACC opponent.
