CLEMSON, S.C. — Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson said this year’s team just isn’t good enough to win and make mistakes. A fumbled kickoff that led to a safety two plays later, two failed fourth down conversions, a missed field goal and a blocked field goal were just too much to overcome as the Yellow Jackets (2-4, 1-3 Atlantic Coast Conference) lost to No. 15 Clemson 47-31 on Saturday.
