ATLANTA (Ticker) -- Gordon Clinkscale rushed for a pair of touchdowns as Georgia Tech posted a 17-2 Atlantic Coast Conference victory over Duke.

He added a four-yard TD scamper with 6:05 remaining in the second period to give Georgia Tech a 17-2 halftime lead. Neither team scored in the second half.

Luke Manget accounted for Georgia Tech's other points with a 32-yard field goal with 18 seconds remaining in the first period.

A.J. Suggs completed 18-of-28 passes for 200 yards for the Yellow Jackets, who are hoping to go to a bowl for a school record-tying sixth consecutive year.
