ATLANTA — Now that one streak is over, Georgia Tech wants to keep another going. The Yellow Jackets (4-3, 3-2 Atlantic Coast Conference) travel to Virginia on Saturday for a crucial game in their bid to extend a stretch of 16 consecutive bowl appearances — tied for fourth among the longest active streaks in the nation. Georgia Tech snapped a run of three straight losses last week with a 56-0 rout of Syracuse, but there's still work to do.
