The money line will be very lucrative. Tech has a good shot at winning this game straight up, IMO.

Take the points. Jump on it now, before the line goes down. Go big.

Hopefully that'll be the step he takes forward this year. He's got some good coaching - we'll see what happens.

This boomer sits at the tip top of the stadium and wears earplugs to fend off the teeth-rattling muzak, thank you. Hearing's fine per se but accompanied by now constant tinnitus, augmented no doubt by the overloud P.A. system.

From where I sit, the PA system could be immediately improved by simply turning the volume down about eight notches. And can the canned muzak so I can hear the band. But that's just me.

Speaking strictly for myself, I've always been down with BDS. Sight lines are good everywhere, and the upper east can't be beat. All I want is a good spot to watch the game, a place to take a whiz, a place to get something to drink, and a scoreboard. And hopefully, a winning team. All else is...

But how are the sight lines from the bathrooms? Can you watch the game while taking a whiz?

It might be an idea worth considering if Tech wasn't $200,000,000 in debt. After spending ourselves into the poorhouse, it's quite unlikely we're going to spend ourselves rich.

A retractable roof? Have you priced one of those lately?

I would wager there isn't one single fan who would pass on buying a ticket because they can't see the game while waiting in line for food. Not one.

A little over 3,000. Stadium capacity will be lowered from about 55,000 to just under 52,000.

They only want to make it public regarding this contract for their immediate purposes. It falls under the heading of hypocrisy. We see this play out all the time, where an argument is made in one situation but quite the opposite argument would be made in another. The lawyers for the other...

Tech lost to Wake Forest because Gailey punted late on fourth and inches around midfield with an obviously worn-out defense on the bench. He made a pro coaching decision in college.

Players could be paid with the money freed up by not having to provide scholarships, since they won't be students. Instant gratification. Fast money right out of high school (if they finish that), but no education. Injured at 19, out on the street. Oh, well...

I really like threads like this because you hear from some people who rarely post, and also learn from some of the older folks details about the old days expressed with an amazing memory. Thanks to the O.P. and everyone participating in this discussion. It's an interesting and fun read.

The Young Lefthander Kim King was QB in the first Tech game I remember, the '65 Gator Bowl (saw it on TV - a 31-21 W over Texas Tech). But the first one I saw in person was Jim Stevens standing in for Eddie McAshan in the Tech - Ugag game in '72, in Athens. The Jackets lost that one, but...

I didn't know myself, but found it in this old article: https://www.usatoday.com/story/sports/ncaaf/acc/2015/10/24/georgia-tech-florida-state-fsu-fg-block-touchdown-upset-lance-austin/74570282/ "...the kick had to be low to get some distance on it, and Patrick Gamble managed to get a hand on...

That's a really good question. I guess I would say it's better to be among them, but I really don't know what I'm saying. It begs another question, though - if we were offered a place in these conferences that are destroying college football, should we turn them down?
