    Lot of Paul Johnson option football on TV tonight

    Navy coaches as a STAFF - to get the same results on a higher level you'd have to take their entire institution and drop it on Atlanta or another Power 5 city. That being said, can you think of the last time CKN lost to a team with *inferior* talent? Ever? I can't even think of the last time...

    Lot of Paul Johnson option football on TV tonight

    The 'Woman in Bees' bears a striking resemblance to Heather Dinich and so does the writing style. Heather Dinich on acid. You cannot convince me that some serious amount of drug and/or alcohol intake did not influence the creation of that post.

    Tennessee fans already starting to talk about the 2017 GT-Tennessee game

    Considering how well Kentucky played late in the year, and considering the Vols had lost 3 straight conference games at the time...I am certain that on Nov. 12th (Tennessee 49, Kentucky 36) it was ribs and gallons o' spiked sweet tea from Memphis to Chattanooga.

    Post video clips here please

    Speech doesn't compare to 2014. Underclassman: "He's a Georgia grad!" Governor: "Naw, naw! Ah'm Mercer! Ah'm neutral!" CPJ: "NOT IN HERE YOU'RE NOT! Whole Team: HOOOOORRRAAAAAAAAAAAAYYYYY!

    Mark Bradley

    You always know when someone's doing the side-shuffle when you see the run-on sentences. Bradley didn't say anything about a bowl loss or 7-6 vs. an 8-5 record. He put all the eggs in one basket. The new AD is welcome to go find a generic shotgun-spread coach and turn the football team into...

    I picked against Tech today. :/ http://www.mobilesportsbetting.com/georgia-tech-georgia-moneyline-acc-vs-sec/ But it was more pessimism than attempted wisdom, and I'm glad to be wrong.

    Bradley strikes me as a classic fence-straddler with no scruples. A "one foot off the boat" pundit. At the low point of this season he wrote the "cold numbers" column hoping, begging to get a death-watch cycle started for CPJ. "2014 was a blip." Then the columns going into COFH implying that...

    Knoxville Sentinal Calls for Vandy to Run the Option

    Sometimes I think the reason CPJ disdains the pistol/shotgun is because it's a gateway drug out of the option. GaSO went from the flex to the shotgun-zone and are now slowly becoming just another mediocre, generic team.

    Paul Johnson's job

    There is no statistical argument for not going for it on 4th down and short, in almost every conceivable circumstance.

    Our Offense

    This is totally naive and just an "eye test" observation. I have no real complaint about CPJ's offense. He's the master of an entire school of offensive football and a gem of the game. CPJ's losses at Tech have been a combination of lackluster defense, size/speed/talent disadvantage, mental...

    Our Offense

    Let's just run the same **** everyone else does. That'll be a terrific advantage.

    Never as good or as bad as it seems... and I love this GT team

    It is an anomaly for a team that is as good defensively as Boston College to have a 3-9 season. Last season they were duped into trying to "build" an effective shotgun-spread option offense (everyone else does it, why can't we?) instead of just running up the middle and giving their excellent 'D...

    Tech fans are awful

    I hate the snark in this expression so I almost never use it, but..."wow" EDIT: I do agree that it doesn't represent 99.9% of the GT fans. I'm just reacting on a human level to the story.

    Our defense is awful...

    Yep. Man, being away from the board for a while due to various personal & professional reasons, I have been shy to post this season since GT is 2-0 and I don't want to be a fair-weather guy who only pops up when they win. That said, the board is SO dark right now that I feel like nobody can...
