The Last Time Georgia Football Played Tennessee Tech
The Georgia Bulldogs will play Tennessee Tech this Saturday. Here is the last time these two teams met.
The Georgia Bulldogs are set to play their first game in Athens this Saturday as they host the Tennessee Tech Golden Eagles. This will just the third time these two programs have faced off in a series that the Bulldogs control 2-0.
The last time these two teams met on the gridiron was nearly 15 years ago when the Dawgs hosted the Golden Eagles during the 2009 season. Georgia won the game in an impressive 38-0 shutout behind an impressive 304 rushing yards on the ground. Quarterback Joe Cox completed 10 of his 13 pass attempts for 140 yards and two touchdowns. While running back Washaun Ealy finished the day with 89 yards off seven carries.
The Bulldogs will look to have similar success against the Golden Eagles as they host their first home game of the 2024 season this Saturday. There has not been a betting line released on the matchup thus far, however, it is safe to assume that the Dawgs will be heavy favorites.

How should cities use AI? This Atlanta suburb may hold the answer.
Mableton, one of Georgia’s youngest cities, is heralded as an example to follow for its artificial intelligence policies.

When you think about the American cities on the cutting edge of technology, which ones come to mind?
Maybe tech hubs like Austin, Texas; Boston; or San Jose, California? Maybe New York City or Los Angeles?

Arizona alum Damon Stoudamire out as Georgia Tech’s head coach
Georgia Tech made the decision Sunday to fire Stoudamire, one day after the Yellow Jackets finished the regular season with an 11-20 record and a 2-16 mark in the ACC. Greg Gary will serve as interim coach. Georgia Tech, which finished last in the ACC, did not qualify for the league tournament.
Georgia Tech owes Stoudamire $2.6 million over the next two years, ESPN reported.
The Yellow Jackets showed promise in Stoudamire’s first two seasons. Georgia Tech finished 14-18 in 2023-24, highlighted by a win over Duke. In 2024-25 the Yellow Jackets went 17-17 and made the first round of the NIT.
Georgia Tech was a disaster this season, however, losing its last 12 games.
Stoudamire was hired by Georgia Tech while serving as an assistant on the Boston Celtics staff. Prior to that, he spent five years as head coach at Pacific, where he went 71-77. Stoudamire previously served as an assistant at Memphis and Arizona.
He is the second ex-UA player that Georgia Tech fired as its basketball coach. Josh Pastner, now at UNLV, went 109-114 in Atlanta from 2016-23.
In 2021 Arizona interviewed Stoudamire for the Wildcats head coaching job. The UA hired Gonzaga assistant Tommy Lloyd instead.
Stoudamire played four seasons at Arizona (1991-95), taking the Wildcats to the 1993-94 Final Four and earning First-Team All-American honors the following year as a senior.

Georgia is No. 1 state for business, but can workers afford to live here?
While most states’ minimum wage rates exceed federal law, the Peach State has fallen behind.
An Atlanta rally in 2016 demanded a $15 minimum wage. Georgia’s minimum wage is still $5.15 in 2026. (John Spink/AJC)

Georgia proudly claims the title of No. 1 state for business for the 12th year running. But if Georgia is such a great place to do business, why are so many of its workers struggling to get by?
On January 1, 2026, 19 states raised their minimum wage rates. California went to $16.90. New York City hit $17. Georgia? Georgia kept its state minimum wage right where it’s been for decades: $5.15 an hour.
