King and defense help Georgia Tech beat Wake Forest 30-16 for 1st ACC win

WINSTON-SALEM, N.C. (AP) Haynes King threw a pair of long touchdown passes in the first half while Georgia Tech's defense racked up eight sacks along with five takeaways to beat Wake Forest 30-16 on Saturday night.

The Yellow Jackets' Kenan Johnson jumped in front of a sideline throw by Mitch Griffis for a critical late interception with 2:18 left, ending a drive by the Demon Deacons for the tying score after trailing 20-3 at halftime. The offense took advantage for the Yellow Jackets (2-2, 1-1 Atlantic Coast Conference), first with King breaking loose for a 35-yard keeper, then with Jamal Haynes breaking free through the middle for a clinching 26-yard scoring run with 1:25 left.

“It was ups and downs on both sides of the football, and you've got to be able to have each other's back,” Georgia Tech coach Brent Key said. “You can't rely on one side of the ball or one unit to be the one that produces. When you do that, it becomes a hard game to play, a harder game to manage.”
