Th UGA wins have to be at the top of my list. Also, my wife and I attended the 2010 and 2014 Orange Bowls. After the 2014 Orange Bowl game, we bumped into a young Miss State couple in the elevator on the way up to our hotel room. I doubt that I have ever seem two more disappointed and...
My memory of the 1985 GT-Auburn Game is that it was a hard-fought Defensive game with Ted Roof and the Black Watch Defense. Score was 14-10 in favor of Tech until late in the game.
Then Bo Broke a touchdown run of about 60 years to seal the game for Auburn at 17-14.
It was a pretty cold...
We probably should take into consideration that Curry was coaching against Bear Bryant, Johnny Majors, Vince Dooley, and Pat Dye through most of those years. Throw Dan Devine (ND) in there for at least one year. Also had to compete against Hershel Walker and Bo Jackson during that period.
I said 3.5 trips West above. To clarify, 7 of the 14 current East Coast teams would make 4 trips west and 7 would make only 3 trips in a 7-year model. Not sure why they are discussing a 7-year model anyway?? Long Term beyond 7 years each East coast team travels West every other year.
Agree. With two permanents, you can rotate 7 + 7 as you demonstrate, resulting in a nine-game conference schedule. Teel seems to forget that using two permanents removes the odd-even situation.
You could also go with no permanents and rotate 8 + 8 and keep the eight-game schedule. This would...
I definitely saw it the same way during my 4 years at Tech(1962-1966}. Coach Dood would also use the quick kick occasionally on third down to gain better field position.
My one close encounter with Coach Dodd was in the Winter of 1962 after a 3 to 6 Mechanical Drawing class. I was walking...
I think you might like the attached. This is from Bill's book, "Ten Men you Meet in The Huddle". This chapter was about another great linebacker, Ray Nitschke. Ray and Bill had a less than amiable relationship when they played together with the Packers. I recommend the book if you can find...
The Cristobal call was definitely a bad one that will be long remembered by both fan bases. However, with only 26 seconds left, the Miami defense had 75 yards to make a stop but could not!
I call that a well-deserved Victory for the Jackets!
Agree, the actual AJC article shows this as an Opinion article. Since Chad Bishop came on board as the GT beat writer, Ken appears to have moved into more of a Mark Bradley role since Mark
is focusing on the Braves.
I know many of our members don't care for the AJC. However, they do cover GT...
Just a follow-up on the ESPN and FOX situation with the BIG 12 around the time Texas and OK announced their departure from the Big 12. See the attached Article from CBS (Dennis Dodd). Note that the Big 12 TV deal was a joint deal with ESPN and Fox, similar to their new deal for 2024. This is...
The SMU football coach (Rhett Lashley) is definitely pressing the ACC as the number 3 conference. SMU will be waging a PR battle with the Big 12 Commissioner (Brett Yormark) for the public perception as to who has the best conference. Like many, I feel that the ACC is currently the better of...
I located this article from "The Messenger" (Javon Edmonds) concerning a Press Conference which Jim Phillips had after the ACC vote on expansion. I didn't know that he had a press conference.
Phillips gave some of the big picture views concerning scheduling and travel with the expanded league...
I just know that it is really frustrating to see Nate McCollum making big plays for UNC versus MINN. Particularly since he led the charge to elevate Key to Head Coach. You would think that he would stick around since he received his wish. However, money talks.
We will likely see some more...
Good Article. GT seems allows to allow too much time between major renovations. I remember touring the new EDGE building in 1980 or 1981. Also, GT added the Homer Rice performance center since then. We have had some cosmetic up-dates to the Edge center.
Obviously, our general financial...
