    Onto the TECH-mo Bowl!

    The colors of hell and the devil. And to my taste, that particular hue of cherry popsicle red Ugag wears is garish. I much prefer the VT colors over that.

    Postgame: ND 31-GT 13

    The Notre Dame game wasn't close. Anybody could see we were drifting out of it by the middle of the third quarter. But Syracuse and Louisville were close games well into the fourth quarter as pertains to the scoreboard, which is the only statistic that actually counts. Tech was probably one...

    The Benz Music Was Way Too Loud!

    That would alleviate the decibels. Wouldn't do much for the conversation thing, though.

    You're right, I am.

    Postgame: ND 31-GT 13

    But it's just focusing on one aspect of the game, and it looks like about 1/3 of the time doesn't even accurately reflect the winner. It seems a stretch to say that 1/3 of the time the losing team should have won, based on a cherry-picked stat. The team that should have won the game is the team...

    Postgame: ND 31-GT 13

    Just to point out - fourteen of the teams that according to this metric had lower "net success rates" than their opponents actually won the game.

    Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    Eyeballs are much more accurate than stats, because they take in the whole context, the entire situation.

    Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    In the post I answered, you compared Pyron's completion percentage with Haynes King's without the context that Pyron faced a superior defense than we saw all season up to that point.

    Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    I don't know if it's "better than we have all season", but I saw Pyron hit some tight window passes.

    Zach Pyron is a tough dude!

    Against the best passing defense Tech has faced all season. You left that little detail out.

    Favorite GT-VT memory

    Taquon completed two the year before, so that means Paul's offense completed two passes in two years and won both games against VT.

    Favorite GT-VT memory

    The referee had his fist in the air, and one second before he was to bring it down and start the VT kicker slowly forward, lightning struck. Lucky for him it didn't strike his fist. I really felt good about that game, too. The Tech kick returners were jumping up and down in anticipation. I...

    The answer to most of the questions asked around here between 2019 and 2022 - "Because TFG is a nitwit".

    Favorite GT-VT memory

    The one game I saw in person was a 28-22 win over #17 VPI in 2017 at Grant Field, notable for Taquon's passing stat that day: 2-8 for 140 yards and two touchdowns. How often do you see that - two passes completed all day, for two long TDs? Ajani Kerr swatted away the Hokies last gasp pass into...

    QB King out vs Hokies

    "Georgia Tech QB Haynes King is expected to miss Saturday’s game against Virginia Tech..." Doesn't sound definitive and looks like a rehash of what we've already seen "according to 247 sports":

    Early Line - GT v VPI

    He shook a lot of rust off Saturday, and he's on comfortable ground having beaten VPI two years ago on the same field.
