  1. 2024 non-GT games thread

    But we would rather lose to Big name teams according to many on the us Board as no one wants to see us play anyone but former SEC rivals. When you are trying to get back to being a good team from bWing in a dumpster fire a softer schedule helps a lot. As long as we play Georgia ever year we...
  2. Where do we end up

    Likely squeeze out one win, two beat downs and one 10 point loss.

    Fusile seems to have regressed this season for some reason.
  4. Early Line - GT v VPI

    I hope you are 100% correct. I have seen nothing this season on STs this season to make me believe one week will cure our many ST woes. AS and FYI - Tech now ranks 103rd nationally in punt return defense, 109th in punting and 122nd in kick return defense. Those numbers don't address that we...

    It's easy to pull a player for making a mistake when his backup would be a star at GT. It is much harder when you are less talented. Our defenses under CPJ were consistently terrible in all phases. They made tons of mistakes every game. Well they were actually good his first 2 years when he...

    It is still indicative of poor Special Teams play. You are correct as it did not change the scoreboard. I would expect we will see some fake punts and FG tries going forward this season. Hope the STs are better prepared.
  7. Early Line - GT v VPI

    You are the ultimate optimist if you think our STs will be fixed this week. Hope you are correct but they have been a liability for several years now.

    If we hold Miami under 45 it will be a shocker.

    It;s really hard to improve the pass defense with out a credible pass rush. I don't see how our pass rush improves with the current roster. The players fight hard, they simply don't win the one on one/tow battles rushing the passer. Our DT do a reasonable job but we get virtually no rush from...

    Look up the rules on running into the kicker. There is a lot of room for judgment. If the punter has reestablished himself after the kick, running into him is not necessarily a penalty. Those were clearly 50/50 calls. There was a receiver in the "general" area when the pass was thrown OB...
  11. Onto the TECH-mo Bowl!

    The VT coaching staff cost VT the game against Rutgers. Rutgers got 3 points on a long FG after they had punted but VT had 2 guys on the field with the same number moving the FG try up 5 yards!

    The GT vs UGA talent gap is as wide as the Pacific Ocean. You recall the days when O'Leary commented on how few GT players could start for FSU. Well there are zero GT players who could start for UGA and only a few who could make their 2 deep roster. Yea 12 men sucks. and should not happen...

    We have average ACC talent without a lot of depth. Expecting more was not realistic. Gambling sites had us winning around 5 games this season. They won't be far off. King is our best player on offense by a lot and he seems to have been banged up for several games. Our defense is improved...
  14. Onto the TECH-mo Bowl!

    I hope I am wrong but I see VT winning by double digits. We simply cannot get pressure on opposing QBs. Give Drone time and he will pick us apart. Tuten is a very good RB. On offense we are not getting enough explosive plays (20+ yards) so we have to grind out 12 play drives to score a TD...
  15. Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    Zach started the game playing great. Completed his first 9 passes. Then he went 5 for 19 which is very bad. He was pressured but it appeared the pressure got to him more than just physically. Then he settled down on the final scoring drive and played great on that drive. Early in the game...

    This team is similar to last year's team overall. An average college football team. The defense is better. Gone are the explosive offensive plays for the most part. Not sure why. King may have been dinged up for a while. It's very hard to score TDs when you need 12+ play drives to score...

    Yea who would have guessed that before the season with FSU and USC on their remaining schedule. ND is physically superior to both Army and Navy. How they deal with the Academy offenses will decide the game. ND will score on both.

    Wer are improving. Yea, there is no justification for how bad our Special Teams are and basically have been most of the year. I think we are now 6-12 on FG attempts. That is bad HS level play. Falling for two fake kicks by ND, that is absurd at best.

    We have improved a lot in Key's time as HC. WE have a ways to go to compete with the top teams as today showed. Miami will be a real problem as their offense is very very good. VT is better than most people think. A healthy King would make a real difference. If he can't go, Pyron will have...
  20. Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    I believe Zach needed that last drive to restore some confidence in his game. From the time we scored our TD until that last drive he really struggled throwing the ball. Impossible to tell from watching in person or on TV if there were receivers he could have thrown to but did not. The film...
