    Other football fans are clueless

    They might. Going back to the 80's we have swapped streaks. They will win three or four in a row and then we return the favor. I cannot remember many times, even in 1990, when they didn't have the more talented team. We have ended so many Clemson dreams, ended so many undefeated seasons for...

    The Best of: Linebacker

    1 Ted Roof but if we include non Tech LB's it would be Tommy Nobis, the best there ever was I think. 2 Tiggle knocking down the 3rd down pass late in the 4th qtr at UVA in 1990 to force them to settle for a FG 3 I have a friend that just retired from the Air Force. He played for Citadel against...

    Crazy wishful things you want to see

    Attendance record, ANOTHER win in athens, a couple of consensus All-Americans regardless of position, a couple of Academic All-Americans regardless of position, at least one offensive player to lead the nation in a significant statistic (rushing yds being my favorite), ACC Rookie of the Year on...

    The Best of: Running Back

    Clint Castleberry - Didn't he finish higher in the Heisman voting than any other Tech back? Lavette's 20 yd or so late 4th qtr run against a good Clemson in 1984 to set up Easley's winning TD after Clemson came from down 21-0 to tie. (A very close second would be Edwards' 3rd down mid 4th qtr...

    GT VS MIAMI 2016 preview

    Nobody knows who while be injured or banged up in the first three games for either team. We always play better against good teams. BDS will be wild, Clemson loves to choke in ATL. Ask FSU what it's like to be a top 10 team and come to BDS.

    GT VS MIAMI 2016 preview

    The first three games of their schedule look very similar to the first three games we played last year. They're gonna come to BDS thinking Richt has made them NC contenders. We will have played against tougher defenses in Clemson and BC, we will have played against one of the best offenses in...

    Tech (AA) projecting $2.4M deficit, but expecting recovery

    Reminds me of the old saying that a farmer buys retail, sells wholesale, pays the freight in both directions, and goes broke every year, but somehow keeps on farming every year.

    Your favorite Tech Speeches

    The one delivered by the commencement speaker the day GT gave me my diploma. Don't remember who he was or what he said, but it meant I had gotten out. It's still my favorite.

    #74 Georgia Tech 2016 Preview via Orlando Sentinel

    All these write-ups start with the question marks on the OL. I am still mystified that all those years when we had walk-on's and undersized TE recuits playing OL, we led the nation in rushing. Yet last year when we had four starters returning from what many regarded as the best OL in the...

    Incoming Freshman Class

    A much older cousin gave me some good advice years ago. He said if someone wants to bet you that he can do some trick shot on a pool table, no matter how ridiculous it sounds, he will be able to do it so don't bet him. Also said that if could give his sons any talent, it would be the ability...

    State of the ACC: Your View

    The good thing about marquee teams if that when you beat them, it brings you a lot of benefits. We have been more than competitive with Clemson and FSU since Johnson got here. Keep playing .500 with them, and good things will flow. The Clemson game in ATL this year is Huuuuuugggggeeeee. We...

    What is your favorite part of the gameday experience at BDS?

    I love getting to Peter's Parking Deck hours before the game then watching the Drum Line form and YJ Alley fill up. Then my friends and family begin to arrive and we drag out the food and drinks and catch up with each other. Although our wives know what we're doing, the guys slip off to watch...

    Don't know if this is the appropriate place, but saw this

    Love the Clemson comments at the end. Lots of bravado. It is strange how well we usually play against Clemson. Before they lost to Bama in the championship game, we were the last team to beat them. CPJ has a winning record against Clemson and FSU. We have beaten Clemson when they were...

    The class we signed in Feb '15 is going to make some noise before they leave GT

    From a fan of 55 years and what i see

    How many coaches has ND been thru in the last 25 years? They made the championship game by the skin of their teeth one year and were beaten like a drum. Tech would have given Bama a better game. Thank Heavens that Bama beat uga in the SECC that year.

    From a fan of 55 years and what i see

    For me, also a 55+ year fan since my Grandfather (a sidewalk fan) taught me the words to Ramblin Wreck as a small boy, it comes down to GT maximizing my pleasure. I love going to football games (32 year season ticket holder), I love we have a MNC since uga has (and I was there for all but two...

    Spring game 2016

    To these ill-informed eyes: Kallon and Jordan seemed to have improved quite a bit since last year's spring game. Both look ready to play. Mills reminds me so much of Joe Burns it's spooky. In Johnson's first Spring Game, I think we averaged more than one fumble per play. Much much better...
