Tech's top tackler
View projectAfter Georgia Tech linebacker Kyle Efford medically retired, I built charts of his career from the school's official stats, checking every game row against the season and career totals and cross-checking against Sportradar. Efford had six games of 10 or more tackles and became the first Yellow Jacket in 24 years to lead the team in tackles for three straight seasons: 81 in 2023 (the first freshman to do it since 2000, per Georgia Tech), 64 in 10 games in 2024 and 77 in 2025, finishing with 250 career tackles.
