DUBLIN -- Dedrick Mills knew he just had to finish the play when given a chance to atone for a fumble in his first college game.He made up for the mistake by also finishing Georgia Techs comeback win.Mills 4-yard touchdown run with 35 seconds remaining capped a drive that included two big completions from Justin Thomas and lifted Georgia Tech to a 17-14 win over Boston College on Saturday.Mills, a freshman from Ware County High School in Waycross, Georgia, said he had to regroup after fumbling in the third quarter.I kind of got down but Justin kept coming back up to me and saying `Hey man, youve got to forget that last play, Mills said. ... I got my chance again. I just had to finish the play.Thomas threw two key completions on the go-ahead drive. The senior passed to Qua Searcy for 22 yards on a fourth-and-19 play and found Ricky Jeune for 26 yards on third down.It felt like a movie, Thomas said. We stuck together. We kept our heads up high and we found a way to do it.Georgia Tech (1-0, 1-0 Atlantic Coast Conference) won its first game played outside of the United States in the 124-year history of the program. Mills, who led the Yellow Jackets with 68 yards rushing, was especially impressed by the dramatic setting.In high school we had a good fan base, Mills said.

Backup quarterback Matthew Jordans 3-yard scoring run capped the opening drive. Boston College held Georgia Techs spread-option attack to 240 yards, including 121 yards rushing.Its tough, said Georgia Tech coach Paul Johnson.

Theyre good and we had a hard time getting anything going consistently.It was a crushing loss for Boston College (0-1, 0-1 ACC), which was winless in conference games in 2015 and has lost nine straight overall. The Eagles took a 14-7 lead on quarterback Patrick Towles 6-yard touchdown run early in the fourth quarter.There was a lot of improvement and there were a lot of good things were going on out on the field, said Coach Steve Addazio. We just need to learn how to close that game out. We had good opportunities in the red zone. We missed two field goals. You cant do that. Thats two opportunities when you have limited possessions in the game.Towles, a graduate transfer from Kentucky making his first start for the Eagles, threw an interception and lost a fumble in the first half.I know, for a fact, that this football team will win a lot of football games this year, Towles said. Its not going to be more of the same.Harrison Butkers 39-yard field goal cut the lead to four points.Jon Hillmans 73-yard touchdown run on the Eagles first play of the second half tied the game at 7-7. Hillman ran for 102 yards on 17 carries.The game, which had a 7:30 a.m. EDT kickoff, was played through rain, leaving the grass turf at Aviva Stadium slippery.THE TAKEAWAYGeorgia Tech: It was a confidence boost for the defense, as Georgia Tech won despite ending scoring at least 20 points in 21 straight conference games. The streak, which began in 2013, was the second-longest by a Power 5 team, behind TCUs 22-game run.Boston College: The Eagles defense, which led the nation in 2015 by allowing only 254.3 yards per game, looked strong again before Georgia Techs go-ahead drive. Colton Lichtenberg had a 43-yard field goal attempt blocked in the second quarter, and he missed a 35-yarder late in the third. Addazio called for the second attempt instead of going for the first down on fourth-and-1 from the Georgia Tech 18.UP NEXTGeorgia Tech: The Yellow Jackets will face FCS in-state rival Mercer for the first time in 75 years.

Editors note: An earlier version of this article listed Aaron Donald. His Madden NFL 17 rating is 98, not 99.?Were still a few weeks away from the release of Madden NFL 17, but we have the final player ratings to chew on until then. Here are the players?who landed the coveted 99 overall ratings.For a separate breakdown on the top-rated players at each position, click here.Rob Gronkowski, TE, New England PatriotsGronkowski is one of just three players since the merger to score 65 receiving TDs in his first six seasons. The other two? Jerry Rice and Randy Moss. (And just think what Gronk could have done if he hadnt missed 16 regular-season games during that span.) Last season, Gronkowski dropped only?one ball on 120 targets, and Madden NFL 17 rewarded him with an average rating of 95.7 in the three catch-related subcategories. And dont underrate Gronks ability to create fireworks?after?the catch. His combination of strength (88 rating) and agility (85) made him tough to bring down in the open field, and he averaged 7.67 YAC per reception last season, tops among tight ends.Luke Kuechly, MLB, Carolina PanthersHow much better is Kuechly than his peers? Heres one illustration: Madden NFL 17 lists 20 positions other than middle linebacker, and the top-two players at each are separated by the slim average of 2.15 rating points. And then theres Kuechlys position, where he is nine points?ahead of the next-closest middle linebackers, Brandon Marshall and Derrick Johnson, who both are rated as 90s. Madden NFL 17 rated Kuechly as 97 or better in seven categories, ranging from tackling to toughness, but it underrated his man-coverage skills, giving him a 74. I dare you to watch the way Kuechly sticks with Julio Jones down the seam on this play?and tell me he deserves a 74.ddddddddddddVon Miller, OLB, Denver BroncosMillers five sacks and two forced fumbles in the Broncos final two games sealed his Super Bowl MVP award, his record-breaking $114.5 million contract, and his 99 rating in Madden NFL 17. Three plays from Super Bowl 50 exhibit why theres no one in the NFL quite like Miller:Third-and-10, first quarter: Miller zooms around right tackle Mike Remmers with a speed rush. Forced fumble. Broncos touchdown.Third-and-8, third quarter: Miller fools Remmers with an outside-inside spin move. Half sack. Panthers punt.Third-and-9, fourth quarter: Miller fights through a Remmers hold around the edge. Forced fumble. Broncos recover.?A few takeaways: 1) Poor Remmers. 2) Stay out of third-and-long against Miller and the Broncos. 3) Miller isnt a one-trick pony. Hell beat you with acceleration around the edge (88 rating), hell leave you flailing with that finesse move (98), and hell shed half-hearted blocks with ease (95).J.J. Watt, DE, Houston TexansWatt has gotten used to his place in Maddens 99 club. This marks his fourth consecutive year with such a distinction. He needs two more 99s to match Peyton Mannings record of six straight years (Madden 06-11). Watt has a 90-plus rating in 11 subcategories, two more than any player to make this list. The ones hes probably most proud of? Stamina (95) and toughness (94). Watt played through a herniated disk in his back and?five torn muscles in his torso, groin and upper legs last season. He has paced all defensive linemen with 4,498 snaps played since 2011, but Watts streak of 80 consecutive starts is in jeopardy after recently undergoing back surgery. ? ' ' '
