    As a teetotaler, I am partial to a Varsity Orange myself.
  2. Game 5 Clemson Predictions

    Not yelling or cursing at ACC refs is simply not possible unless, of course, it was the legendary Ron "Giving him the business" Cherry. I miss that guy.
  3. Albany, Ga

    Yep. Got their BBQ many a time. Pretty good Brunswick stew as well.
  4. Albany, Ga

    Ate there many a time. I was meeting a friend of mine who is a podiatrist in Albany that went to Florida. What he has to say about Grantham was not nice. He claimed that Florida and LSU did not need to postpone their game this Saturday because both defenses strictly practiced social...
  5. remaining wins....

    How cool would it be to win, say 4 games and two of them would be against Miami and FSU? It could happen. Not likely, but could. You are entitled, as everyone to your opinion. That does not mean that I share it. I believe we will lose all three of Clemson, Notre Dame, and Miami. The others...
  6. Game 5 Clemson Predictions

    Clemson to win and cover. IIWII
  7. remaining wins....

    Before the season, I thought we would win 4...I see no reason to change it. NC State looks to be improved over last year. I do not see us beating Clemson, Notre Dame, or Miami. We might win any two of Duke, NC State, Pitt, and BC Could just as easily lose all four of them as well.
  8. 119 YEARS OF GT FOOTBALL / COACHES & RECORDS

    What Homer and Coach Curry did in just a few short years was nothing short of miraculous. The absolute worst Division 1 facilities in the nation, an administration that was unrelentingly hostile to athletics and in particular football. There was actually talk of "deemphasizing football or...

    Well, Alexander did not do Coach Dodd any favors. Tech was in pretty bad shape when Dodd took over in 1945 and within a few years they were playing in the Orange Bowl. Unfortunately, Coach Ross stepped into such a mess that he later said had he known it was so bad he would never have come to...
  10. 119 YEARS OF GT FOOTBALL / COACHES & RECORDS

    I forgot about him. He was already a great coach at Maryland. "College football begins and ends with recruiting" Oh? The coaching landscape is full of coaches that were great recruiters and little else. Coach Johnson accomplished a lot during his time here. Last time we won a Orange Bowl...
  11. Clemson Game Open - GT opens at 26.5-27 point dog

    Yep, watching most of that Clemson and Miami game showed they do not fool around. Lawrence is very good at seeing the field and throwing the ball to different receivers at different levels. A lot of quick wide receiver bubble type screens and mixed in with passes to the backs and tight ends...
  12. Clemson Game Open - GT opens at 26.5-27 point dog

    OK, if we get another extra point blocked we will know who to blame.

    Usually it does. That said, the great coaches like Heisman, Dodd, O'Leary, and Johnson begin to make a difference almost immediately. We will see if Coach Collins approach with an emphasis on recruiting works.
  14. Defense is now totally optional.

    Defense is what separates the elite teams from the wannabes. UGA and Clemson are two examples. My Florida friends have nicknamed Grantham "3rd and " One receiver for Texas A&M repeatedly shreded the Gator man to man defense for about 200 yards receiving. Many of them are saying this is...
  15. remaining wins....

    I think we will beat Duke. More growing pains ahead.
  16. Clemson Game Open - GT opens at 26.5-27 point dog

    I don't agree with you but the timing is pretty good coming off a very physical game for the Tigers with Miami. I still think they will cover the four touchdown spread with ease.
  17. Clemson Game Open - GT opens at 26.5-27 point dog

    Damn, do you mean to tell me that Clemson does not have hulking monsters on the defensive line? Hell officially freezes over, details at 11. Now, I see that someone said that even though they are young they have a bunch of former 5 stars playing on the defensive line. Yep, that's the Tigers...
  18. Clemson Game Open - GT opens at 26.5-27 point dog

    It was pretty bad but what did they expect playing Miami. Miami is going to do Miami things. It is what they do.
  19. Dave Patenaude's Offense

    I don't want to talk about him. It took me a year of watching Coach O'Leary to realize that is what a real coach looks like.
