    Duke postgame

    I do have a question concerning special teams. IIRC, the old maxim about fielding or catching a punt was that the returner stood at the 10 yard line and if he had to back up to catch the ball he was instructed to just let the ball bounce, taking the chance for a touchback. Our returner(s) has...

    Duke postgame

    ^ Agree 100%. we haven't had such a disruptive force in the interior since Gotsis left. I thought Zeek was going to be such a player. seeing a DT chase down a screen pass? outside toss sweep? (can't remember) was a highlight of the game for me.

    Game 6 #DUKEvsGT Predictions

    I am assuming that you are a fairly young person. Sadly, our program regressed to the point where it HAS been 50-50. But that says more about us than them although they did improve a bit under Cutcliffe. But us older guys have the mindset to where GT should beat Duke. Of course, the really older...

    Game 6 #DUKEvsGT Predictions

    Duke is a team that you figure should be an automatic W but that's not been the case over the last decade. I am leery of these guys but have to pick us in a close one. GT - 27 Dook - 20.

    A few things.

    Zero speculation pretty much shuts this site down. I have done some statistics and the current probability of a post being factual vs. speculation is less than 2%. In other words, restricting posts to factual content means allowing about 30 posts per month. Confidence interval here is +/- 7...

    Louisville Postgame

    I agree and imho it seems like other teams have discovered (dare I say it) the dreaded blueprint to CBF's offense. I have had the sense in our last 2 losses that the other team knew exactly what we were going to do on each play. Contrast this to last year's UGA game where I felt like were...

    What is your personal record in GT road games?

    It took guts for you to publicly admit your wrong doing. There was a lot of fretting and wasted time on this board over coaching decisions, player mistakes, refs, wrong uniforms, etc. But I am a firm believer in Occham's Razor. WTBS, how much can the board collectively pay you NOT to go to...

    Louisville Postgame

    I am reminded of the classic definition of insanity which is oftentimes incorrectly attributed to Einstein...the one about doing the same thing over and over again expecting different results. Coaches can get wedded to a certain way of doing things. Cremins, Tenuta, CPJ come immediately to mind...

    What is your personal record in GT road games?

    I want to put this to you in as polite a way as possible so that we can retain some sense of decorum and foster the seeds of a positive personal relationship going forward. So WTBS, how in the absolute **** did you have access to this goddaam ****ing data and choose yet again to sit in the...

    Louisville Postgame

    late in the game when we were down a score and driving. On a particular first down I told the folks I was watching the game with that I didn't care what play we ran just as long as it wasn't a designed QB draw. It was and we lost three bc that is the play we run on first down. The insistence on...

    Louisville Postgame

    Three takeaways: 1) Without Haynes King we would be in a world of hurt 2) We are not in imminenet danger of losing our OC to another school 3) Our DC is better than UNC's DC That is all I got.

    2024 non-GT games thread

    If you don't know, I believe it is best to keep it that way. the ol' "ignorance is bliss" mantra is truly applicable here.

    Game 5 #GTvsLOU Predictions

    I pick GT to win str8 up. 35 - 28. For you people who wager, my record when picking Gt to win outright (which is what I always do) going back to 2019 through last week's game is 24 - 39. Do with this information what you will but I am putting it out here for free. If you want to know how I see...

    On To Louisville

    Looking at this article, here is what I noticed - Vols-Sooners, LSU-UCLA, and Mich - USC. Love these kind of out of conference matchups (although not sure if USC is in the B10 this year or not). Shout out to Bama going to Wiscy as well last week, maybe a by product of the expanded playoffs...

    Heads-up to any DirecTV subscribers out there

    Too little, too late for me. I have cancelled them and switched to Fubo. So far I have been happy with the switch.

    GAMEDAY!!!!

    I was up later than usual after going out with some friends and just waited up for this post. It's like waiting on the ball dropping on New Year's Eve (something I gave up awhile back). Thanks Clyde. Sting Em Jackets.

    Yet another CPJ vs CGC thread

    I agree but Key wasn't getting hired then. Lack of HC experience (imo). If there is a bright spot to the previous reign of despair is that it set in motion the chain of events that has lead to Key being our coach now. He was in the right place at the right time. Then made the most of his...
