I don't know how much credence to place on this but CFN picks Tech to win and cover (barely) based primarily upon Duke's penchant for turnovers. FWIW

I agree. The "Seesaw Theory" will be tested this week as it is the turn of the Good Tech to show up. On that basis, Jackets by 3 TDs. even in Durham.

"...comfortable"? Surely, as a long time Tech fan and moderator of this forum, you should know by now that being comfortable as a Tech fan is akin to that guy in India on the bed of nails. That is about as good as it is going to get.

I agree with this. Either we blow them out, or they win a close game. We are favored for a reason...I just can't think of why.

True, but mediocre for Wake is actually pretty decent. They are one team that has managed to overcome some significant challenges as being historically the doormat of the ACC.

The "rule" is that if you have exceptional recruiting, player development, preparation and game day coaching then having losing seasons become the exception. In this environment, none of the teams below the top 25 or so including Tech have any chance of competing. College football has become...

My only concern about this is that 3 years is plenty of time to show at least incremental improvement on the field. If there has been any, it has escaped this casual observer for the most part. Not that it matters because Coach Collins, for better or worse, is here for at least 2 or 3 more...

The boys at Enron had a similar attitude. When it imploded, the book detailing the scandal was "The Smartest Guys in the Room". The "Money Guys" remind me of them.

I cannot speak for others, but I do not want to get "off the see-saw". Not this week, as it is time for us to be "up" as it were. Maybe in the following week it will be time to hop off. As for becoming a consistent, competent football team...not happening any time soon unless drastic...

If it were just all recruiting, UGA would have a whole trophy case full of national championship trophies, Ray Goff would still be coaching, Randy Shannon and Al Golden would still be at Miami and Christ alone who knows how many Tennessee coaches would still have their jobs. I hate to say it...

The rich are getting richer with every passing year. The elite factories are almost out of reach for bottom feeders to compete and there are a whole lot more bottom feeders than elite teams. I am more than willing to give Coach Collins the full 7 years of his contract to run the program his...

Florida went one better with Ron Zook and got a boatload of 4 and 5 stars. Alas, the bipolar Gators would beat UGA and lose to Mississippi State. They did have the distinction of having a coach whose post game press conferences were the stuff of legend. He even invented a new word once...

Entirely possible but a win over Duke just might propel this team to winning more games. A loss to Duke...I don't want to contemplate it.

Gee, if Emory Bellard had known his creation was going to create all this fuss, he would have let his son and friends play ball instead of trying out his triple option ideas using them in the backyard.

The best example I can think of at the moment is Alabama circa 1980. Alabama was still running the wishbone but had "flexed" it out some and recruited a quarterback who was athletic but could throw the ball named Walter Lewis. Over the course of about three years they gradually moved away...

Yes, that is why after watching them against UNC and Northwestern, I changed my mind about this being a cakewalk. It will not be but I still think we can win. The UNC game started out good for Duke and then came the 75 yard catch and run on a wheel route followed immediately thereafter by the...

My daughter went to Carolina for graduate school, she says it is a culture thing. Carolina fans claim Clemson fans are ignorant rednecks what Clemson fans say in return cannot be posted on this forum.

After watching them against UNC, I take this back. They have a great running back in Durrant. A t 6-1 195lbs he is not a power back but has a way of wiggling through and breaking tackles. He has more gears than a 16 wheeler. The quarterback is good but not great. On the other hand, it is...

I think he is being sarcastic.

It does not matter as he is not going anywhere for at least another year and probably two years. We cannot afford the buyout besides he could easily turn this thing around or drive it into the ditch but its his program so let him finish the drill. Coach Ross suffered one of the most...
