I was thinking the same thing. Hope Tech can control the game but it could turn out to be a 37-34 game with last possession winning.

Agree but I think a lot of us got tired of Luginbill’s voice by the 3rd quarter. Even Wes had to get back to the subject at hand a few times.

Because Tech fans being Tech fans we always expect the team to have a let down and Syracuse is as good a place as any for that to happen. And we are tired and banged up from the last two games. But a win means we are good enough that all conditions don’t have to be perfect for us to win.

Be bold and brave 😊

The easiest prediction to make right now would be a Tech loss at Syracuse. Syracuse is a tough team, wanting to have a great season, and playing in a place that is tough on opponents. Tech, on the other hand, has expended a lot of physical and emotional energy over the last week. If Tech is...

“What else can you do in Blacksburg?” was exactly what I was thinking. Atlanta is a funny, kind of jaded town. Some remember an earlier time when the main thrills were the Atlanta Crackers, the zoo, and going to Piedmont Park. There were no pro teams and the only fine dining was Coach and...

Hope they can schedule a rest day. This is a great team but if they can’t get some rest they are going to continue to be a step slower in their reaction times and make mental mistakes.

I liked this but I would differ slightly. Rather than “bigger, but broken,” I would say, “better, and not quite as broken, but still broken.” It’s interesting that the justification for being an exclusive playoff in which committees decide who plays and under what handicaps, is that it’s about...

I’ll say it again. I hope these guys get some well deserved rest. The difference between the team that beat FSU and the team that pounded GState, is leg weariness and slower physical and mental reaction time.

Hope Key says encouraging things to this team. They are tired.

My take exactly. The mental errors, holding -the legitimate ones, illegal procedure, letting the opposing quarterback slip away from sacks, and missing tackles, all were due to a team not quite as rested as we were last week. People poo-poo it but overseas travel and jet lag have an effect...

Thanks. I’ll pass. 😊

Those who said overseas travel, jet lag, and a full schedule would not affect Tech were wrong. When a team is not noticeably tired but is still fatigued nevertheless, here is what you see -missed tackles, a lost step by skill players, and holding calls. Tech is playing their guts out otherwise.

Where is the game thread ?

Aha! It’s Miami now! It used to be the SEC said FSU was basically an SEC team, especially after they won a national championship, but we knew someone in the ACC would have to take their place eventually. Thank god they will never say that about Tech even if we win a natty with a perfect...

If Miami beats Florida by, say, 30 points or more does that mean, on average, an average ACC team is 1-2 points better than an average SEC team, just going by averages?

The U back ?

Do we need an intervention at your house ? Maybe she could listen from the next room? This is closer to the edge than I like to be.

Thanks my brother !

If we lose tonight it is my fault and I want to take responsibility now. I have accomplished zero today. Nothing productive. Piddling away the time thinking about tonight. That is never good when I do that. I’m sorry.
