They have better players but its close enough to be about a touchdown difference. If Tech plays like they did against UGA, they will win but I don't think we can stop UCF so my prediction is UCF by a touchdown. Could go either way.

Turns out Norvell knew something that the rest of us did not concerning Jeff. Maybe it was some kind of sixth sense that alerted Norvell to the dangers of signing him. Anyway, he was right and those of us, including me at the time, that were so overjoyed at Norvell having turned down a can't...

There is that level of plausibility but still, for me to get suckered like that...sad how people abuse the elderly these days.

Gee, I am really dumb and old now borderline decrepit. Maybe I should slink away in shame and contrition.

If Miami really wants to be serious about joining the elite factory teams...they are going about it the wrong way.

Our assistant pastor played at Birmingham Southern. Smart, articulate, talented in leading church services. He played defensive end at 6'2'' 240 lbs or so. Fast but not quick enough or big enough. He did not get any scholarship money of any kind. I asked him if there were any players on his...

There is a pretty conclusive, just my eyeballing it, list of truly elite factories. I would add Washington and Notre Dame to make 12. I am sure there would be a handful of others with the finances and the year in and year out talent to be at the cool kids' table of football royalty. Auburn...

Yes, you would think it was intentional.

I don't know but looking at FSU, I think it is impressive what they accomplished winning a conference championship with the third and fourth string quarterbacks. To me they looked loaded down with talent.

Nope, I don't agree. After watching the games Saturday the top 5 would be Washington, Michigan, Texas, and FSU. All conference champions with just one loss between them. Alabama beat UGA to be the #5 team leaving the Dwags at #6. Of the teams, I saw play Saturday, Texas was the most...

FWIW, not much in my experience, college football news is projecting Tech to be in the Pinstripe Bowl opposite Rutgers.

Clinton Lynch (spelling?) Now, there is a name I have not heard in a long time. A fine A back for Coach Johnson. Remarkably versatile. He could block, run, and catch passes usually for long gainers. Had a couple of years where he had 500 yards receiving and rushing. I did not realize he...

You heard him. "But later you will understand." What I will never understand is a coach throwing good money at players who were part of a historically bad defense but then, I did not understand Nebraska paying Jeff Simms whatever it was that they paid him.

Paying money for our defense? Caveat Emptor.

Some people like me are slow learners. The Bowling Green and Boston College games kind of highlight the needs as did the UGA running back that rushed for a career high against us. Besides the list was TIC in some ways.

The three top targets: 1) Defensive linemen who can run 2) Defensive linemen who cannot run 3) Linebackers

You are confusing politics with reality in NYC thus making you the "miserable human being".

Just like Spurrier. He needs to accumulate a few zingers like Steve would throw at UGA. "Georgia has all these great recruiting classes...I don't know what happens to them after that." In all the time Florida played UGA while he was coach, he was a constant thorn in their side. If the talent...

Gee, next thing you know they will be replacing injured five star starters with four star reserves like an ordinary football factory. What is the world coming to?

That surprised me more than anything else. The play calling was superb. The boys on the defensive line need to get in shape and lift like crazy this winter.
