Georgia Tech starting quarterback Haynes King will miss Saturday’s game against Notre Dame, according to ESPN insider Pete Thamel. Yellow Jackets head coach Brent Key revealed that Haynes King was questionable earlier in the week after leaving last week’s game against North Carolina with an injury.

As one of the best dual-threat players in the country, King will be missed by Georgia Tech, as they will now look to Zach Pyron to lead the team against Notre Dame. The sophomore has played sparingly in his three seasons with the Yellow Jackets, with his last significant playing time coming in 2022.

Notre Dame should win in Atlanta against the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets at Mercedes-Benz Stadium. So say the experts. Your author thinks it will be closer than the experts do, but I, too, expect the Notre Dame Fighting Irish to walk away as winners.
