Tech recovered from the loss by winning its next five games, including a last-second victory over 19th-ranked Nebraska and a 31-7 blowout victory over No. 9 Miami. The victories brought Tech to a 5-1 record and a No. 4 national ranking. On October 17, Virginia Tech traveled to Atlanta for the second time that season, this time to play 19th-ranked Georgia Tech. For the first time since 1962, Georgia Tech defeated a top-five team, beating Virginia Tech 28-23.

Georgia Tech lost only one ACC game all season, a record that won it the ACC's Coastal Division and the accompanying spot in the ACC Championship Game ahead of Virginia Tech, which was No. 2 in the division.
