Five days after Geoff Collins was fired four games into his fourth season, the Yellow Jackets responded with a stunning 26-21 victory over No. 24 Pittsburgh on Saturday night that was emphatic as it was improbable. read https://www.cbssports.com/college-football/gametracker/recap/NCAAF_20221001_GATECH@PITT/
