There is a value to rugby style kicks, and they are becoming more a part of the game. For one thing, it puts pressure on the receiving team to have a balanced block rush. That means less of a set up for the return as more players have to be dedicated to the rush rather than the return. The...

Actually, I'll enjoy not being around people who throw tantrums and threaten to quit because don't like something. And I'll enjoy being around fans for whom rooting for GT is more important than personal comfort. What I really wanted to say was "Can I haz your stuff?"

I think we'll have a better win/loss record. Will it be enough to feel 'good' about? That will likely depend how improved we are in executing our plan. If we got really lucky and all 22 starters for every opponent we played this year was out for covid protocols, then I'm guessing we'd have a...

See ya.

NIL Partnerships Most Likely For Teams: Georgia Tech : Waffle House Clemson : RealTree Virginia : Total Wine "The U" : Sanford Bail Bond Agency

Me too. But I'd say that about the polls in general. It will never happen, but I'd still rather have sixteen eight-team conferences (128 teams) with 11 (7 conference + 4 non-conference) regular season games ending in mid-Nov. The conference champions (16) advance to Thanksgiving week bowls...

That's a good point, but I'd rather have a four loss conference champion playing in the playoffs than have a two loss team get voted in by some writers, politicians and a few ADs. Just me. I'm weird I guess.

Yeah, for all the positive of "Any Given Sunday", there is some negatives too. It's not a shock when a bottom third team beats the eventual champions in the NFL. But when App State beat Big Blue...that was something to talk about. To be honest I'm not sure where I am with parity. If you have too...

But more boring for all that, in my opinion. Like the NBA, it's become such a star-driven enterprise that it's not "Tampa Bay vs Atlanta", it's "Can Ryan Finally Get Back at Tom?" If I wanted make-believe drama I'd watch The Bachelor.

That's a tragedy, in my opinion. If you can't win your conference you shouldn't be able to win the natty. Full stop.

Now that I live closer to JAX than ATL, and given how they'll actually take on GT players, I might just have to switch my almost six-decade long fan allegiance from the Falcons. It doesn't hurt that it has been 5.4 decades of heartbreak interspersed with a 0.6 good decades. Maybe now's the time...

FIFY

Great news about Waller. It's kind of weird how many standout NFL WR's we have coming through the Flats in the past 15 years given we ran a run-first (and second) offense for so many of them. I love seeing redemption stories like this.

Let's blow it all up and have the US Congress fix this! Maybe they can create a "Department of Sports Fairness and Equity." Every few years we'll realign the conferences to ensure that our favorite teams have a good chance of getting to the playoffs. The new Department will take all of the money...

Yeah, academically it isn't even close. It's about the same difference between us and them academically as it is in football. The average ACC school is so far ahead of the average SEC school academically that it isn't even debatable by those of us who recruit regularly. Night and Day. But for...

Sure dude. Whatever. Better than 'least improved' and beats the crap out of 'worse.' Hey, wait. Do you hear that? What's that sound? Oh, it's some lemons calling you to come suck them. :/

I have repaired a broken office culture and can tell you that three years is where you start to see the uptick. Now that's in an office and not a sports-team. But just like a sports-team, the first thing you must do it get rid of the locker-room problems. No matter how smart they are, how good...

I don't think the SEC did anything "bad" either. I think they acted in their self-interest, which is what should be expected since this is now business and has zero to do with the SA's well-being. Just like the Alliance members are also acting in their self-interest. I do believe that the...

I don't understand what those who are poo-pooing the Alliance are suggesting. Are they just playing the safe game of saying "That Will Never Work"? At work we call those people the "Wing Pullers"...those sad people who have nothing useful to suggest but will almost always step up to say why...

I think it is 90% likely we'll be seen as the most improved team in the ACC, personally. I watched the ACC Network's GT 'mini-marathon' yesterday afternoon while I was doing some shop work. I really get the sense that our O-line is way better this year. This is based partly upon the body...
