COVID-19 has wrought further damage to Georgia Tech's 2020 season. For a second consecutive week, Tech has had a game postponed due to the coronavirus pandemic.
After their home game against Pitt scheduled for this past Saturday was postponed after both teams were unable to field enough players due to injuries, COVID-19 infections and contact tracing, the Yellow Jackets will not play at Miami this Saturday, either.
The ACC announced Monday evening that the Tech-Miami will be postponed to Dec. 19 due to positive tests and quarantining within the Hurricanes' roster. Miami was barely able to play its game this past Saturday at Virginia Tech due to injuries and COVID-related absences.
The game will be played as long as the Hurricanes are not in the ACC championship game (they are tied for second with a 6-1 league record) and the outcome of the Tech-Miami game would not directly impact the determination of the two teams to play in the championship game.
