The nations number 1 and number 2 ranked rushing offense squared off in the BCS National Championship game in Miami. Both team's offenses struggled to get down the field, Georgia Tech managed to strike first, with a 21 yard FG as time expired in the 1st quarter, thanks largely to a 25 yard pass play that setup the FG.

The Blue Raiders would be able to tie the game on their next drive with a 29 yard FG. The Blue Raider got a big play late in the 2nd quarter on an option play and Lance Williams was able to break out on a 64 yard run. That lead to a 32 yard FG as time expired in the 1st half to lead 6-3. The Blue Raiders would start the 2nd half where they left off the 1st, with a 24 yard FG to take a 9-3 lead. Georgia Tech would be able to put together a great drive, but falls short of the endzone and will have to settle for another FG. 9-6 MTSU leading.

After forcing MTSU to punt, Georgia Tech puts together another drive to get them into FG range. They would not be able to get into the endzone yet again and would have to settle for a 29 yard FG to tie the game at 9-9. The Blue Raiders drive down the field, convert on a 4th and 2 to keep their drive going. They were able to get inside the 5 yard line and would line up for the potential game-winning FG attempt with :03 remaining. Georgia Tech would try to "ice" MTSU's kicker by calling 3 consecutive timeouts, but it would be no use. Matt Woods would be able to kick it threw for the game-winner. The Blue Raiders become the 2020 BCS National Champions!
