ATLANTA � Marcus Sims fumbled into the end zone to end No. 16 Florida State's comeback hopes in the final minute, and Georgia Tech held on to beat the Seminoles 31-28 today.

The Yellow Jackets beat Florida State for the first time since 1975, after going 0-12 against Bobby Bowden and the Seminoles in the ACC.

Cooper Taylor's hit caused the fumble that Rashaad Reid recovered with 45 seconds left. Florida State trailed 31-20 before scoring with 6:04 left and then getting the ball back with an interception.

Sims fumbled on a run up the middle from the 3 and Reid won the mad scramble for the ball in the end zone.
