Wake had been living on the edge all night with sacks galore and turnovers. Their luck ran out and that last one was the nail in the coffin. Not quite the same as playing Old Dominion and Vanderbilt is it?

It usually is.

Well, after all he does tend to favor the defense as he should being as he is a former Florida linebacker back in the day.

Wake led in rushing yards, total offense, time of possession and by a ridiculous margin in first downs...all for naught with Tech big plays and five turnovers. A five to one turnover deficit will get you beat just about every time. Griffis did not look as sharp today but the step up in...

True but the other side of the coin is that if you are not scoring and your defensive backs are bouncing off the other team's runners then it does not matter that much.

I was just thinking that if Wake wins this game then my preseason prediction of 5 wins will probably prove to be overly optimistic. Sad state of affairs.

I don't know, it seems like it worked for Coach Johnson many times. I will never forget the look of utter frustration on the face of Miami running back Duke Johnson (last name?) and whoever the Miami quarterback was at the time watching a death march in a close game.

Interesting, but I will save you all that trouble...we will win a few, very few, and lose a lot but the team will be entertaining as long as King remains upright, no sure thing that.

At one point ODU had Wake down 17-0 but could not seal the deal.

You are not impressed that they beat an SEC team? Doesn't it mean more? Watching them against Old Dominion, they still do that slow motion RPO and the quarterback is very good at reading the defenses and can spot open receivers who are not primary targets. In the limited time that I watched...

More than my tomcat does at any rate. That varmint got into a fight with another cat and cost me over $150 in vet bills. Thacker looked to be a dead duck at the end of Collins reign but managed to survive somehow.

They would certainly be "winnable" if we had better players on defense. We don't and they're not.

Looking at their last two games, so I am retired with nothing better to do, give me a break here, Wake strikes me as a well coached team but losing that quarterback has put a damper on what used to be a widely feared offense. They just do not seem to have the same vibe that was their calling...

Hard to tell but 24 points in a little more than 7 minutes is suspicious.

It needs to change this week. Away game against a respectable but hardly formidable opponent. It better change or this season will likely unravel in a hurry.

It has been said many times but worth repeating, "the pine, is a coach's best friend."

Wake is not nearly the challenge that Ole Miss proved to be on either side of the ball. They are as they have seemingly always have been, well coached, fundamentally sound, and a team that will make you work for the win. If we can somehow get a three and out in each half, then I like our...

I am holding onto my original prediction of 5 games but may have to revise that if we lose to Wake. We will have to see. I think we can beat Wake IF for the love of God get one, just one, 3 and out per half. Is that too much to ask?

There is always hope. Wake is not nearly as explosive on offense this year as they have been in the recent past. They are averaging about 34 points a game against pedestrian, to put it kindly, opposition while their defense is giving up about 20. They are 3-0 and have the confidence of a team...

The game has changed a lot in the last 20 years. Offensive linemen get away with holding to the point that Ole Miss was called for a hold on one of our defensive tackles and the man was taken down in the best pro wrestling fashion. Just grabbing a guy and spinning him around as happened on the...
