PITTSBURGH - The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets took advantage of six Pitt Panther turnovers in a 56-28 win in ACC play on Saturday.  

The Jackets torched the fourth best defense in the nation by rolling up 615 yards of total offense. Justin Thomas passed for 147 yards and a touchdown and added 92 yards rushing and a score. The 56 points put up by the Yellow Jackets are the most ever by an opponent at Heinz Field.

Georgia Tech is now bowl eligible with the win.  The Jackets will return home next weekend and host Virginia.
