Georgia Tech vs. BYU

December 27, 2025
img3:30 PM Eastern

Georgia Tech doesn't have much momentum coming into the Pop-Tarts Bowl, having lost three of its last four games, including a 16-9 loss to rival Georgia, while wasting a tremendous defensive effort in the regular-season finale. The Yellow Jackets are 1-4 ATS in their past five December games. BYU has won 13 of its past 15 games, and it is on a current 6-2 ATS run. It's only two losses this season were to Texas Tech, and the Cougars averaged 36.5 points in their other games. The Cougars have covered seven non-conference games in a row, and they are 7-0 ATS after totaling fewer than 170 yards passing in their previous game. BYU has bounced back to cover five of its past six following a loss by at least 20 points. The Cougars have virtually a full roster with no opt-outs or transfers. BYU freshman QB Bear Bachmeier will be matched up with Georgia Tech QB Haynes King. Bachmeier has thrown for 2,708 yards and 14 TDs with six interceptions. The Cougars have covered their past three bowl games. Take BYU.
