  1. Question about linemen

    Interesting question since we have watched Georgia's and Clemson's Defensive linemen pore through our offensive line for several years at this point. I always say that we are as big as they are in most cases, so what is the problem. I certainly agree that the factors you show are where the...
  2. Clemson Postgame

    Mark Packer on ACC PM noted that all 4 of Clemson's interceptions were made by 4 different Freshmen. I hope we can improve by 2025 when these guys are Juniors and back on our schedule! Just shows the depth of their talent.
  3. Tech vs Clemson - Game Predictions & Questions

    From the game summary, I see that we had a big 34 yards from the Tight Ends with 3 catches. Apparently, I didn't recognize those times that the backs were split out. However, the Only back shown as "receiving" in the game summary was Dontae with 2 catches for 30 yards total. I am just...
  4. Tech vs Clemson - Game Predictions & Questions

    Yes. I didn't see any passes to the backs/Tight Ends until we were behind by 3 scores. Everything was going to the wide outs. Maybe I was in the bathroom?
  5. Tech vs Clemson - Game Predictions & Questions

    You are correct, Singleton should have caught that pass. I had a little different thought when the play happened. I told my wife that was the wrong call in a hostile environment for an underdog team. We had a third and two. We were running the ball pretty well at that point. My thinking was...
  6. Tech vs Clemson - Game Predictions & Questions

    Wonder if Buster ever considers throwing to a running back or a tight end?
  7. Tech vs Clemson - Game Predictions & Questions

    I believe we gave up on the run too fast. Started throwing sideline passes which I hope we don't see again! Defense is already looking tired--been on the field too long!
  8. Clemson favored early spread

    Your thoughts about the two deep reminded me to post a summary that I have worked on for a couple of days based on Phil Steele's preseason magazine. Concerning talent rankings, Steele consolidates several different ranking services like Rivals, 247 Sports, ESPN, Tom Lemmings, etc. He then...
  9. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    I saw Dabo on ACC PM talking about the GT game. Packer asked him about losing the GT game as an every year opponent. His basic comment was " that one goes way back". That pretty much ended his comments on the subject. There was NO comment like "hate to lose that one". I remember that Dabo...
  10. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    See attached comments concerning the new ACC schedules pulled from "The Desk of J Batt" (Batt's Athletic Up-Date). I will leave to your interpretation whether he had any objection to No Protected Opponents for GT.
  11. GT 45-UVA 17 #GTvsUVA postgame

    GT looked steady and more consistent on both sides of the ball. King was in control. Great WIN!!
  12. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    Just a quick thought about the toughness of the schedule. I did a quick look up online and found two schedule rankings for the 2021 and 2022 GT football schedule. 2022----teamranking.com---GT---#1 Toughest 2021----------USA Today----GT---#1 Toughest Most of the other rankings have us in the...
  13. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    Agree for several reasons: GT will be more injury free early in the season. Normally, we are not as deep as UGA in talent and by the end of the season we are in a weaker position depth wise. If we lose to UGA early in the season, we have a chance to recover. Early loses can be overcome if...
  14. Game 8 #UNCvsGT Postgame

    I went to a GT game at Clemson several years ago. Our tickets were in the Second deck about 25 rows up. It literally seemed like you were looking down in a big Well. I couldn't read the player's numbers without binoculars. When I stood up, it felt like I was going to topple headfirst onto...
  15. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    It was not many years ago that we played at Clemson two years in sequence so we would be able to bring Clemson into BDS when UGA was an away game. Reasoning at that time was to balance the schedule and the Budget by having a good close Rival each year rather than having both Clemson and UGA in...
  16. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    Good information. Looks like the ACC did a pretty good job of balancing the travel. If my count is correct, GT will make 5 trips to the 3 new schools, while the NC schools will make 4. GT makes 2 trips to SMU during this 7-year period. This is likely due to the odd number of years and will...
  17. New ACC Schedule Format Reveal

    Exactly. Guess who will be seeing more road trips to the west coast. Since the NC schools will only be rotating 5 new conference games each year their California trips will come less often for them. Since GT and Louisville have no permanents, they will rotate their ACC schedules more often...
  18. Conference Realignment

    I believe Coach Key's comments on the ACC Huddle after the game is revealing. His comments were very positive concerning the ACC as being the most competitive conference. Plus, he reaffirmed that he was strongly supportive of the conference. I am pretty sure this represents the view of our...
  19. Game 8 #UNCvsGT Postgame

    Hope this can be a turning point for Key's Program. This was a great win which should instill some confidence! Still concerned about the Run Defense.
  20. Brent Key is not the answer

    This comment may be out of date, but I recall Jimmy Johnson's comments concerning his time at Miami (From his Book). He tried to recruit rangy line backers and build them up into fast D linemen. He also mentions using constant up-field pressure rather than the hold and wait system for the...
