OK Nerd Alert! My wife and I were recently reminiscing about the Orange Bowl with MSU, how beautifully the B Back option was working, and how frustrated the DL for MSU was. She came up with the idea that it was the Schrodinger Offense that game. For a defensive lineman, the B Back both had...

I agree. Until he ran that damn kickoff back against Clemson, he was the best safety I ever saw play for Tech.

Counting Away games and Bowl games - 250+. Made every home game but two after becoming a season ticket holder in '84. I think I made all the home games as a student in the mid to late 70's. Averaged somewhere around two away games a year, mostly Clemson. Several trips each to UT, ND, AU...

So he comes to Tech from Grayson, plays one year and enters the portal like AB. Meanwhile the Boomers quit buying the tickets and funding the scholarships. That's the way you build a program.

Jeremy Muyres might have personified what you are describing as reading the game. Nowhere near as physically imposing as Thomas and Carpenter, but he was a three time All-ACC as a defensive back.

uga happens to be located between Bama and Clemson, and it sucks the life out of Athens. I agree with the OP. The one thing they want most is the one thing they can't have, and that is a miserable existence. The girl they bring to the dance keeps going home with somebody else.

Unfortunately four of the other top 9 we will play each year.

Maybe my memory is starting to fail, but every time I watch Gibbs, I see Lavette. And I'm reliving '81 and '82 as we waste him game after game. Another thing that I see from the past: Patrick Nix is calling our plays. I foresee a Bud Carson type tenure. Several years of losing often badly...

For the few games we actually got to see him, Hollings was the most talented and probably the best I ever saw in a Tech uniform. What would CPJ have done with him in the TO? Joe Burns was the best 4th qtr back. He got stronger as the game went on. Lavette played on such terrible teams that...

Would Tech's all time team beat uga's all time team? What would you give to see Lucius hit Herschel? Calvin standing over Champ in the end zone?

Pepper had some freaks. Don't forget Al Richardson, Mackel Harris, Steve Raible, Don Bessillieu, Kent Hill.

Damn, you just made me feel old, or maybe young. Drink and Drown at the Mad Hatter!!!

Make Friedgen the OC on that team, and they might play for the MNC (if he isn't in jail for killing Ball).

Just looked and ND plays Clemson in South Bend the week before ND comes to ATL. I think I like that.

Open the campus for tailgating, free buses to the stadium, air conditioned rather than 95+ degrees for an early game, ESPN game day on campus, replays on the Jumbotron pre-game of when Bama came to BDS in '84 and '62. First game of the season, we come out in the TO and Saban forfeits.

When was the last time a team beat Clemson running any offense?

Now that is what I call a high school offense. Makes me feel young again. You fans in your 30's and 40's are about to get to experience the early 80's. Stars might align, and we steal a game somewhere, but probably not. It's going to get bad, and then basketball will be worse just like 79...

You can always look at it this way: First game with a new HC and DC, and the DL did as well as Bama against Clemson. Did Bama record a sack against that OL? I don't think so.

Expect to see several more Graham to Brown TDs this year.

Start with the obvious. The coaches knew that TO is not an effective passer. But if Bama's Heisman candidate qb can't pass against Clemson's D, then neither are we. Coaches know TO can run, so you go with the running QB, and hope to get some work for the other two. In their hearts, the...
