This is my biggest positive from yesterday. I think we were all too shell shocked by the whole second half disaster to think about it. But in recent years we have gone late into any number of games with an even chance to win, but it is the other team which shows the poise, determination, and...

Add to that, Ken S has a piece this morning about just these kinds of things that we did right in the first half and wrong in the second. Little can indeed be big.

cheese, I think part of the reason is the human tendency to dwell on the bad and take the good for granted. Butker kickoffs have been a huge help so far this year. In addition to not kicking them all that deep before , who can forget all those seasons when we couldn't tackle a darned returner...

This year Paul has weapons he usually doesn't. He has three very good wide receivers, with two of them both big and fast. He has a quarterback with a quick release who can throw with accuracy. He also has a quarterback who roll out and still throw it well. And a quarterback who has the speed...

fish, he said he has had other job offers while at Ga Southern, Navy, and while at Tech. But he emphasized that he is never planning his next move when he is coaching at a school. He's just trying to do the best he can where he is.

A few comments PJ made on the Monday night radio show. No, Wofford doesn't help with preparation for this game. They both run option, but there are two many differences in what they do. "These kinda games give me nightmares!" We have to match their intensity. "I'm more worried about...

For those of us who think PJ is a great fit for us, that last answer was kinda scary.

After a shaky start, I think Brandon Gaudin has become an excellent host of this thing. He poses some thoughtful questions, the kinds of things the fans are thinking. Paul is a tough interview. He is impatient and easily irritated with some questions. But Brandon has learned to roll with...

I'm with Charger. I love the noon games personally, but the perception is that noon is for rinky-dink.

Cobb, I have a fuzzy recollection of PJ or someone in the know saying last year that the amount of cut blocking we do is overstated. I believe he went on to say the cut blocks are mostly on the interior. The perimeter blocking is whatever the blocker thinks will work.

What I remembered from last year was two roughly evenly matched teams slugging it out. We had a slightly better team but negated it by absurd, selfinflected screwups. This year's game should be very interesting. From all reports VT has an offense this year. This it totally out of character...

gt02, I wondered why they did that one time and quit. I think they brought two extra rushers and timed the snap count exactly. I thought they were offsides it was so perfect. They were in our backfield in under a second.

Carrying dressedcheese's point further, I wonder how much the game film from last week affected their plan with the safeties? Maybe if we can continue to complete passes if they keep the safeties too close in, other teams will not be able to flood the side we're running on as they have in...

My two cents on DL: first half they didn't get any pressure. Second half they did considerably better. Our blitzes were an equal amount of good and bad. Some times we disrupted the play as you would hope. But as dressedcheese said, twice they absolutely burned us with the screen. In both...

Was Rook-Chungong in the game? I saw Stargell a lot, but I don't think I ever heard Rook-Chungong's name called. 'course those sorry announcers might have called him somebody else anyway.

Since Tulane threw something like 48 times last week, I assume we will be in a nickel a lot. Which two linebackers will stay in and which DB will be added?

Nice to read such a positive post. And nice to have a board where people don't come out of the woodwork throwing cold water all over it. I agree completely on the quarterback issue with Georgia. I think if Chan Gailey had ever had a first rate quarterback he'd probably still be here. And...

cheese, that was earlier in the week. I'm pretty sure PJ said later he is okay to play. (Gotsis)

Those dimensions scream "pass protection" to me. My guess is they don't have the leverage or quickness for run blocking. On the other hand, it might be darned hard to get through them on pass plays unless someone rushes they aren't expecting.

I am still trying to come to grips with how bad Nealy looked Saturday, as are you all. If this was not a fluke -- if he plays similar this week -- I wonder if we shouldn't start playing three safeties. Nealy's extra size did us no good when he was blocked by much larger linemen. A smaller...
