  1. UNC 2024 Post Game

    Yes, they were much improved today. Don't know why. Seemed like the same personnel.
  2. King Injury Factual Updates

    This is the thing about Pyron. The man has pride and is a competitor. Is he the same kind of gunslinger type that King is at times? No, a different breed of cat but Notre Dame will regret it if they take him lightly. Pyron reminds me of what Bear Bryant said about his quarterback (Pat...
  3. UNC 2024 Post Game

    "Made progress"? Sure, we show a lot more grit and determination now than we did just a few years ago. Tech is back to being what it was in the past. The kind of team that lacks great talent and depth at some spots but just dangerous enough to absolutely ruin a powerhouse football factory's...
  4. UNC 2024 Post Game

    That is pretty good. On their "Tar Pit" forum, one smart aleck posted at half time "Our defense could not stop a pig in a ditch" I must confess I never heard that one before. These guys are almost as funny as the crowd at CanesinSight when Manny and Randy Shannon were coaching.
  5. UNC 2024 Post Game

    Someone correct me if I am wrong but on the tube it looked as though UNC in typical Collins undisciplined fashion overran the play and when Jamal cut back there was nothing there. One thing you can say about this team is the speed at the skill positions is truly "elite". Well, not that kind...
  6. UNC 2024 Post Game

    We all know stech it was pee, you would never allow a drop of your favorite beverage to be wasted.
  7. UNC 2024 Post Game

    75 points and very nearly 1,000 yards between the two teams...Defense? What's that? In typical ACC fashion. Jamal scored that last touchdown with just seconds on the clock, I was afraid he had scored with too much time left.
  8. Game 7 #GTvsUNC Predictions

    They are right about the offensive line. In the two games I watched, Duke and Pitt, pressure on Chriswell was pretty much constant. Once they stopped Hampton and in the case of Pitt did not throw anymore pick six touchdowns they took control of the game in the second half. The weakest parts...
  9. Game 7 #GTvsUNC Predictions

    Makes sense. I was tempted to pick UNC because of Hampton and getting that defensive player back last week and the fact that it is in Chapel Hill. BUT this characterizes UNC this year more than anything. Score 7-3 Tar Heels ahead due to a pick six against Pitt. UNC marches the length of the...
  10. Game 7 #GTvsUNC Predictions

    Since you live in North Carolina, I will tell you about when I lived and worked in Banner Elk during the mid 1980s. I was traveling across state on I 40 one day and saw a bumper sticker with this little gem: "Duke is puke Wake is fake But the team I hate is NC State" accompanied by the little...
  11. Game 7 #GTvsUNC Predictions

    You know its funny, may have changed in more recent years, but it seems to me that of the four Tobacco Road football teams, N.C. State always SEEMED to bring more fans than UNC, Duke, or Wake. Not at all surprising given that Wake and Duke are private with smaller fan bases but you would think...
  12. Game 7 #GTvsUNC Predictions

    I was really tempted to pick UNC in an upset but I just don't think they are that good. The quarterback is pretty decent, they have one of the best running backs in the ACC, pretty good receivers but the defense is just wobbly. This is a team that shows every sign of getting ready to pack it...
  13. In your opinion, what are the top five games ever played at BDS/Grant/Hyundai Field?

    In no particular order: 1962 Tech upsets #1 Alabama Dodd called this his greatest game. 1916 Cumberland 200 plus points is impressive against air 2015 The Miracle on Techwood 1966 Tech's upset win against #8 Tennessee 1990 Tech's win over Clemson with two goal line stands was the catalyst to a...
  14. Duke postgame

    Stech one of these days your luck is going to run out.
  15. Chad Alexander on scholarship

    "Leary"? I guess I missed it. Which player was this?
  16. Duke postgame

    Pyron has a lot of admirable qualities but being a "power back" is not one of them. He is a quarterback and a fine backup but not a true power back like Laskey, Anthony Allen, and others from the Johnson era.
  17. Duke postgame

    He just is not a power back like all those "B" backs that Paul Johnson had one after another of man killing pounders. Imagine being a safety and seeing big Anthony Allen bearing down on you after shaking loose from a linebacker. To this day, I would be willing to bet their are old defensive...
  18. Duke postgame

    Well, if the ACC is involved you can count on a lot of...ticky tacky going on.
  19. Duke postgame

    Well, you remember what Joe Hamilton said about his lack of height? "I may not be 6'2" but I play like I am."
  20. Duke postgame

    Your observations are spot on about UNC...they are dangerous, with a fine running back but they are at the point of just packing it in for basketball. One more push from us and you can put a fork in them. In the second half of their game with Duke I thought I had never seen such poor tackling...
