  1. Bowling Green Post Game... 😢

    FYI, there are no divisions anymore and I don't expect to see them reinstated. To make it to the championship game you have to be one of the top 2 teams in the conference. My expectation is that GT should make it to a bowl game consistently (say 4 out of every 5 years) and avg around 7-8 wins...
  2. Where do we go from here?

    I wish I could say I was the one that researched this, but it was someone else on another board first posted about this. In the last 11 years (2013-2023) we are 11-21 against FBS OOC opponents, and given that we went 4-0 in both 2014 and 2016 against FBS OOC opponents GT is 3-21 over the last...

    NCSU is benching Armstrong in favor of MJ Morris for its game against Marshall this weekend.
  4. On to Miami

    Well last week I really had no concern about BG because their offense had been so putrid all season, I guess I forgot they were playing GT's defense. This week I have not much hope in this game, so maybe GT will win. That said, if i'm Cristobal, i'm telling my OC he better be planning on...
  5. Bowling Green Post Game... 😢

    I wish I could remember who is was now but I saw an article today where someone on the offensive side of the ball made a similar comment to what Moala did. Not surprised about King. The rushing attack was just really poor on Saturday and the receivers can't make high scores unless the QB can...
  6. Bowling Green Post Game... 😢

    The biggest takeaway from this game for me is that is just confirms what we have seen in the previous 4 games in terms of 2 things we do poorly on offense and 2 things we do poorly on defense. On offense we are a poor running team. Our RB's are good in space, but not between the tackles and the...

  8. Conference Realignment

    I really think we have to wait out and see what the CFB model is like at the end of the decade. I'm very interested to see what the B1G and B12 contract talks look like at that point. That, to me, will determine whether there is any significant movement. Given how CFB marketplace is changing it...
  9. Game 5 #BGvsGT Media

    This is a game I am just not very worried about. I am expecting a comfortable win. This is the worst offensive team we will see all year. They are ranked 132 out of 133 FBS teams in OFEI. They are also one of the slowest teams in terms of plays GT will see. They avg less than 60 plays per game...
  10. CFP Discussion

    Jerry Palm does a 'what would the CFP look like if it was 12 teams' every week. Same Top 12 as last week, though a different order for some. Only 1 current SEC team in it (though TX will be in the SEC next season). ND remains in the bracket despite the OSU loss...
  11. CFP Discussion

    I know we are in 2023 but in looking ahead to 2024 it is being reported there will be no change in 2024 to the 12-team model (ie. it will be 6 conference champs and 6 at-large). That could potentially change in 2025, but in 2024 it looks like their will be 4 P4 champs and 2 G5 champs in the CFP...

    Advanced stats review. Alot of good, but some bad as well. https://www.fromtherumbleseat.com/georgia-tech-football/2023/9/26/23889220/georgia-tech-football-advanced-stats-review-wake-forest
  13. ACC Standings

    I think you explained everything well. The models usually have a component for previous seasons performance until about halfway through the current season. They have to have some input for the models. As teams play more and you get farther into the season the previous season counts for less...

  15. CFP Discussion

    UGA will get in with 1 loss no matter what. I think if any of the big 3 from the B1G (Ohio St, Mich, Penn St) have only 1 loss and win the Championship game they are in. I think a 1 loss PAC team is in given they have multiple games against each other. Texas, FSU, Miami are in if they are...

    I don't see Duke as a Top 10 team but it is pretty easy to see them as a potential Top 25 team. They don't have amazing talent, but they play well together, have an excellent qb, and play smart so they won't beat themselves often.
  17. Game 4 #GTvsWF Postgame

    When I re-watched the replay it looks like the ball is sliding down until his foot is out of bounds - which would mean control is not established until he is out, might not be enough to overturn but it would depend upon the crew. Was glad they chose not to review it, it would have been a close call.
  18. ACC Standings

    It's still a little early - like to see each team play at least a couple of conference opponents but based on performance and opponents to date think I would go something like this. 1. FSU 2. UNC 3. Duke 4. Miami 5. L'ville 6. Syracuse 7. NCSU 8. GT 9. Clemson 10. Wake 11. BC 12. Pitt 13. VT...
  19. ACC Standings

    Thoughts on other future GT opponents Miami has been on cruise control since its win over A&M. But they certainly look better than they did last season. GT is likely to be a significant underdog in this game. Van Dyke is currently #2 nationally in QBR behind Penix Jr of Wash. BC - the one game I...
  20. Win Total Predictions

    I had 6 pre-season and still sticking with that. The win Saturday kept us on track to get there. Keep in kind if we upset a team that we are not supposed to it is equally likely we will lose to a team we should beat. In my nightmares this is a win over UNC and a loss to UVA - that would seem to...
