ATLANTA - Kelley Rhino had two interceptions and a 75-yard fumble return for a touchdown as the defense set a decided tone Saturday in Georgia Tech's first scrimmage of spring drills. <br>
<br>
Jonathan Cox and Jack Rogers also had interceptions during the 90-play session. <br>
<br>
``I thought our defense was way ahead of our offense,'' coach Chan Gailey said. ``It was pretty ragged. Some individuals made some plays, but our consistency was really lacking.'' <br>
<br>
A.J. Suggs, the transfer from Tennessee expected to claim the quarterback slot, completed four of eight passes for 38 yards, including a 7-yard TD to Rahshan Johnson. Damarius Bilbo, a redshirt freshman, connected with Kerry Watkins on a 26-yard scoring pass and also had a 23-yard run. <br>
<br>
Tailback Sidney Ford did not participate because of a rib injury. Sophomore Jimmy Dixon had 35 yards and one touchdown on 15 carries and Gordon Clinkscale had two touchdowns and 38 yards on 14 carries.
