    Louisville Postgame

    When RS fielded that punt over his shoulder running backwards towards the EZ, I screamed "what are you doing??!!" at the TV. As soon as he was tackled, I turned to my friend and said "that play is going to cost us". Look, everything in sports is easier said than done. I understand that when a...

    Game 5 #GTvsLOU Predictions

    Today's game will tell us a lot about our team. Having a break next week will be an opportune time for both the fans and the team to assess what's going on and adjust for the rest of the season. In our only loss, we forced 17 third downs, which is plenty enough to win most football games...

    Syracuse Post Game

    First of all, we all need to give 'Cuse a lot of credit. They were well prepared, did their homework, and were a step ahead today in the schematic part of the game. They are also very talented. Most of their skill guys on offense will be playing on Sundays. Their QB may be the best we have faced...

    Game 3 #SYRvsGT Predictions

    Syracuse will have some offensive success today. I would be more than happy to be proven wrong in that statement. Some have tossed (pardon the pun) around 300 passing yards as a possibility with a sense of doom attached to it. While I hope we do hold them under that number, I don't see it as a...

    Game 3 #SYRvsGT Predictions

    31-23 Jackets. They will have some success on offense through the air. We possess the ball a lot though, with a balanced attack (while rushing for more than 200 yards) and finish drives more than they do. It's a pretty clean game without a ton of penalties or turnovers. It will feel like a very...

    On To Syracuse!

    Please let us not get to the point we "fear" an opponent, "fear" losing, or "fear" a major challenge. This is what sports is all about. We could lose, but I do not fear it. I trust my eyes and our coach, we are an improved team. Play the game. Give it the best you've got.

    On To Syracuse!

    Well, I will start with the disclaimer that anything can and usually does happen in CFB. So any predictions on my part are completely worthless, as are anyone else's. That won't stop me though, and it shouldn't stop you either. As I offer a look forward into the coming week it is helpful to...

    AP Ranking

    Quite a few ranked teams have losses or didn't look too good in wins. I guess we sneak in, but I really don't care. Just keep winning. The difficulty of our schedule will force respect if we keep winning.

    Georgia State Post Game thread

    The broadcast team made mention that the ref crew was from a neutral conference. Guess which one?......................... You are correct, the Special Education Conference. Now just let your brain run wild. It's sad that Alexander had to leave the game. I hope he is OK. IF it is a collarbone...

    Georgia State Post Game thread

    I kind of chuckle when I read comments insinuating that GSU was an inferior opponent last night. While they now may have been proven to be so, to a small degree, I beg to remind you that they have been to bowls 4 of the last 5 years, winning 3 of them. How many have we played over that time...

    Four minute mode?

    Four minute offense had nothing to do with confidence in our defense. It was just wise regardless. To play winning football, we need to be able to play fast, medium fast, and "chew the clock" slow with equal effectiveness if we want to make a run this season. Game situations are what they are...

    Nice breakdown of FSU/GT counter run play

    Part of what that shows is how assignment sound our kids were last weekend. I'm talking about both sides of the ball.

    Game 2 GSU vs GT Predictions

    I don't see a boat race event like some, but I do see a solid win. We will play well overall, but GSU will be better than we expect. We play a lot of people out of necessity and generally perform up to expectations. If I had to guess, we get to a 17 or so point lead and let some of it slip away...

    Game 2 Georgia State vs Georgia Tech Media

    Well, getting in a wreck is not always a bad thing, especially if it's "Ramblin"

    A Second Viewing-Trench Warfare

    So, I decided to watch the entire game a second time. This time, instead of following the ball like I do during live action, I just watched the trenches and didn't even pay attention to where the ball was going. I just wanted to see for my own eyes whether we had grown as much as it looked like...

    FSU Post game thread

    I like how we opened up the defense schematically after the first drive. Blitzes were complex and came from everywhere and yet, were executed quite well. They were effective against the run as well as the pass. We got into their backfield and disrupted the flow of their plays just enough to...

    Game 1 #FSUvsGT Predictions

    There is adversity in nearly every game. There will be some in this one for sure. Purely from a gut feel perspective, I think this is the year that our DL will actually take the lead with our defense. That hasn't happened for a long time. Additionally, with the returning players/production on...

    You’re the HC: In percentages how would you divide NIL Money Pool by position group to equal 100%?

    This is the best question posed in quite a while. To answer is difficult because there are so many factors involved. In general, by major category I would go: 50% Offense 50% Defense 0% ST The reason being that most ST players are recruited or signed through the portal for O or D anyway. In my...

    Your choice for Head Coach

    Well, I really don't have a strong opinion on who our next HC should be. So, I'm not voting. I haven't done any research at all. I just want a coach who is competent, has substance, is tough, and "real". In truth, I was turned off by CGC for that reason right from the get go. He may have...

    What's your game plan to beat UGA?

    There is no game plan that beats the leg humpers Saturday. No finely crafted, creatively genius plan will do. FWIW, I flew my Piper Archer from PDK to Charleston, SC yesterday for a meal in the old town and a little adventure. My planned route took me over the Athens VOR both directions, which...
