isn't a blowout.
I can't think of a single team we've ever played that if we beat 31-7, I (and most) wouldn't consider a blowout.
When you add in the GA Tech is a quality team, who we beat by largest margin of defeat for them this year, while nearly doubling the spread (was more than double before their garbage time score), and had their HC accusing us of 'running it up' at his post game presser...I just don't see the 'we didn't blow them out' angle as valid.
