    Article Season Opener Preview: The Northern Illinois Huskies

    The SCESPN network has the game at an 18 point spread and 57.5 O/U. I think the equation then is: GT = NI + 18 GT + NI = 57.5 2NI + 18 = 57.5 2NI = 57.5 - 18 = 39.5 NI = 19.75 GT = 37.75

    Whiteout Saturday

    I agree. Let's get the player's jazzed with a strong showing under the lights, the stadium all white and the energy high. Looks from the weather forecast that's it's going to be an awesome night to be in Bobby Dodd. Lower humidity (for the summer) and a nice breeze. Let's turn it up! LFG.

    Whiteout Saturday

    Whiteouts in September make sense. Here's the new plan: September = White October = Gold November = whatever color jacket you have to keep your @55 warm!

    I hold my right to be butthurt if GT does poorly as an unalienable one. Add "butthurt" to "life, liberty, the pursuit of happieness". Just saying :)

    Article Season Opener Preview: The Northern Illinois Huskies

    Our defense will be a ton better than last year. Better line? Check. Better linebackers? Check. Experienced DBs who practice together? Check. More depth? Check. And, honestly, I'm not sure it could be worse unless they made me go out there and play... The only real question that remains to...

    ACC office may leave Greensboro

    And it feels like the ACC joined the Big East, not the other way around. Meh.

    Expectations for the 2021 season

    The genius's over on The Athletic have ranked GT number 97 in the country. We are behind such illustrious powerhouses as: Troy, Western Michigan, Western Kentucky, Hawaii, Wyoming, Buffalo, Kent State... First. I'm done with The Athletic. No GT beat writer, little coverage and what is usually...

    And since we have been occupied by line play recently …

    I'm still waiting for the program to list a player's position as "Super". Only at GT!

    Just watching Nebraska . . .

    I'm not sure why the OP wanted to crap on Sims. I'm a fan of Sims and think he's right on schedule. If you expected more out of the young man given the situation then I don't know what to say other than "I guess you never played the game." Jeff's never made any excuses, and good on him. But...

    2021 Preseason Thread

    I'm hearing that over and over in multiple places. It's a very good sign and makes me proud to be a Jacket. And, yes I know. Let me say it for you "That stuff only matters if you win." I beg to differ. It matters because we are Georgia Tech. We believe in the Total Person Program. We hold...

    ACC office may leave Greensboro

    I prefer to refer to the agriculture and journalism school down the road as the large Suburban College east of Atlanta. Athens is now just pretty much a suburb of Atlanta. Rural colleges are nice. City colleges are cool. But no potential football player grows up thinking "I want to play in a...

    Expansion Talk 2021

    Yeah, even SEC apologists must admit that they discount SEC 'down' years by saying things like "We don't care at all about games outside the conference. Our players don't even practice for those teams. Only the SEC matters baby! Woof, woof. <picks nose>"

    Get old, stay old. That's the winning formula for linemen that seems to work.

    ACC office may leave Greensboro

    The ACC office would be a Yawn in NYC. In ATL it would be a big deal. Put it on the Connector with a huge ACC sign on the side of the building and get tons of eyes on it daily. Talk about staking a claim vs the SEC! But honestly Charlotte is a good choice too. But I think national media exposure...

    Expectations for the 2021 season

    Well...my EXPECTATIONS OF THE 2021 SEASON have absolutely nothing to do with something that happened more than three years ago. That includes 2009 - 2018, that includes 1967 - 1972. It's likely golden punch, but there is no way we are outside of the top 50 this year. I know that's not saying a...
