    • Abstract:
      This article features the author's reminiscences of following Georgia Tech football. Since I left my home state, its largest city has hosted an Olympics and won a World Series. But New York and California can say that. Those states never had a football program like Georgia Tech's in the '50s, when I was growing up: Bobby Dodd's Yellow Jackets, whose wizardry I savored through a medium, now long defunct, that was cooler than TV. Tech football was" Dodd's luck." Six Tech players made All-America '52: Pete Brown, Leon Hardeman, Bobby Moorhead, Hal Miller, George Morris, Buck Martin.
