Ugly? Anytime you win especially against a conference opponent it is never "ugly" just a difference in how you look at it. Good win for our boys. They deserved it.

If NC State fans wanted a balanced offense, they got one 227 yards passing and 230 yards rushing pretty balanced but kicking field goals seldom wins games these days. I don't know why coaches have to over think things. When they tried for the two points why not run it? We could not stop...

About as wet as I am right now lol. Still it was a darker shade of blue, a true Navy blue than what we are wearing today.

I am afraid your analysis MAY prove to be spot on concerning Coach Collins ultimate success. One question I have for you: Who would you rather have...Bronco or that guy at Virginia Tech. Be truthful now. Interested in reading what you have to say about the developing coaching rivalry in the...

I would move to another seat if one is available than to listen to that the whole game. A friend of mine and I were at the old Gator Bowl for a Georgia - Florida game and these guys behind us were arguing with the guys in front of us with all parties definitely influenced by alcohol. In the...

I would not call it always "way off" but yes he could and did get outstanding players. All four of those linebackers could really bring the lumber. You are absolutely correct that he could sell Tech and Atlanta to small town boys in Valdosta, Montgomery, Kingsport Tennessee, Vicksburg...

Yep. He learned that from General Neyland who was his college coach. Dodd believed in putting his 11 best athletes on defense and keeping the game close with superior kicking and field position. The Jackets never beat themselves and were supremely confident in themselves and their coach...

This book was marketed as a "how to build a successful football program" for high school coaches. It was very technical and not for the average fan.

These were a very dark blue. Do you see the black Wake Forest helmet? It is not much darker than that jersey. Like that look with the white pants. Do not like blue pants at all.

It was fun watching the defense. The coach at North Carolina was asked about Tenuta's blitzing schemes: "They will be blitzing when they get off the bus" Another coach opined once anon. to a preseason magazine: "The bastards come from everywhere" We upset Miami once and sacked the...

I did it was like watching a China doll get hit by a Mack truck. Old school power running with the quarterback under center by BC and State could not stop them.

I read somewhere that they had suffered something like 47 injuries during the course of the season (hard to believe but that is what it said). They were 4-2 playing BC and got slap dab run over to the tune of 300 plus yards in the first HALF and this was when they were leading the ACC in rush...

He forgot to add that State cannot run the ball and is probably going to start a true freshman quarterback but it may not matter. What matters is can Georgia Tech play better, much better than last Saturday?

State by about a touchdown. They can move the football and we cannot. A lot depends on which State team shows up...the one that was leading Louisville at half time or the one that got blown out in the second half and looked bad doing so. They are so schizophrenic the wonder is they don't...

Pretty bad, but I suppose it could be worse...we could be Maryland which has the distinction of being the first team to start the season in the top 25 and end it in the bottom 25. That is what I call falling off the cliff so to speak. If we win Thursday night, it is possible that NC State will...

Likely as not. I watched NC State's game earlier this year against BC and a later one, perhaps the last one against Louisville. The BC game is when it all started to unravel. The Wolfpack went into that game 4-2 and was leading the ACC in rushing defense. BC lined up in old school power...

I am 65 myself and seen a lot of strange things on the Flats in my time including a national championship and more upsets of top 20 teams than I can remember. I have also seen abysmal seasons as bad as this one come and go. This too, will pass.

He shares that characteristic with Coach Johnson, loyal to a fault but I would rather have that than some guy whose answer to every challenge and set back is to toss assistants under the bus. Of course, sometimes they have a good reason to do so. I don't know that we as fans can really know...

All good things must come to an end. Let's start another one Thursday.

Yep. Thomas was an average quarterback compared to the likes of the Vicks and Tyrod Taylor until...he got to play against us and then by George he was money in the bank. Four starts, I think, may have been only three and three or four straight wins. Hooker is pretty good, I will grant you...
