Definitely not the same. Teams have more than the week of the game to prepare for teams. Having a bye week does afford additional time but it also has downsides too. Teams with momentum tend to slow down, teams with too much rest time are often sluggish at the start of games. Just saying...

I'm not with this "woe is me" attitude...why don't we just nut up and win the games? If we want respect, just win the games. This happens in every conference with select teams for various reasons. I don't particularly care one way or the other, this is football...strap up and play.

That can be said for a lot of teams every year. It's happened in the SEC for years and it's happening in the ACC now (due to conference play). GT isn't unique and I don't think losing to the NC or teams that beat the NC should make us feel any better about losing. Not related to your post...

I agree with you on the point that if the ACC keeps winning then we'll get better at recruiting but kids want to play in the SEC for a totally different reason. I hate to say this but it's not about actually winning, its more about perception. Even during eras when teams like Bama, Auburn and...

I hear you, and maybe I'm just not aligned w/ that vision for the program. Which leads me to believe that other alum and fans aren't clear on that vision either. But true enough, our job as alum and fans is to show up and support, period. I can't say that it's not realistic to be a consistent...

It may help marginally in recruiting but probably won't move the needle. What the SEC has that the ACC doesn't is "culture". Top recruits and even the people that attend both ACC and SEC games are aware of that. I'm not mad at the SEC for getting all the attention, they know how to promote and...

If I had to choose, I'd pick Nike over UA...hell, I'd be happy w/ Adidas as long as we got rid of Russell, it adds zero value to the GT brand. Nike has an army of designers that focus on school-specific branding and I could see them doing a lot w/ "THWG" or "Ramblin Wreck" themed...

Great to see the defense play with some attitude this weekend but Roof only earns redemption when the defense is consistent from week to week.

Don't want to take anything away from our defense but it was more so about Clemson not executing in the 2nd half. They had tons of busted plays and missed passes that could've easily made the score worse than what it was.

My gf (Auburn alum) tells me every week that she feels like she's at the library at our games. I feel shaded every time she says this but I can't even be mad b/c it's sadly true.

Agreed...it almost seems like we're avoiding playing the good teams that could gain us some respect nationally. It could only help our recruiting efforts, kids want to play in big games, period. And I don't consider The Citadel a "big game".

You sure wasted your time writing this post on someone that's so ignorant. You seem angry...maybe even hangry, go eat a Snicker's.

So because a professional football player didn't stand during the National Anthem, you desire for him to get injured. Says more about you than it does about him. It's Colin's absolute right to not stand during the national anthem Suggesting that he should go to another country is absurd - if he...

Thanks for sharing, and I won't hold you to that "zero chance of success in the ACC". #hatersgonehate

Don't post much, more of a reader, but we can't go wrong w/ either prospect. If I'm being honest, Capel is truly the big name here that will give us the "splash" we're looking for. Just my personal opinion. If we go w/ Capel... Recruiting will never be an issue and we'll be back to recruiting...

I would love for us to rekindle our rivalry game with Auburn each year.

My gf and I are going to the Dublin game with a group of friends. We haven't solidified any plans yet but we definitely want to do a sightseeing/hiking tour through Ireland and hopefully jump to another country in EUR. I've always wanted to visit Ireland but would never plan a trip just to go...

Not sure what my age has to do with anything as I was only asking a question. If there is a vision set for the football team by CPJ then so be it. I'm just not sure what it is. What @AE 87 said makes sense. We're obviously not going to get to the NC the same way as an SEC team, we'll have to...

I think a lot of you may have missed my point. In no way am I comparing our program to Alabama but rather referring to the very clear vision that Saban had for his football team. Has CPJ done the same thing? If a national championship isn't the goal each year then that's fine, but what is the...

I’m not sure what the strategic vision is for our program. Do we have a desire to become a powerhouse and playoff contender each year, or are we just comfortable with “above average” seasons?? Is our goal each year a National Championship? Or is the goal just to win at least 7 games...
