    Today's Attendance

    To be fair, this year the W-L records disparity (10-1 vs 5-5) was the biggest I can remember... AND coming off a crushing loss at Duke. Can you really blame our fanbase for feeling extra pessimistic about our chances? Sure I felt our guys were better than their record, and made my way to BDS...

    How in the hell is Pitt SHUTTING DOWN Miami like this??? No turnovers here, just totally dominating. And Pitt has even fumbled themselves twice. Craziness! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Tbh that was based on the VT 4th quarter. Hokies drove the field throwing left and only tried Ajani Kerr on the right twice. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    2017 Bowl Projections

    No that’s not possible. Tennessee’s APR isn’t even close. The Vols have already been mathematically eliminated. Anyway Vandy is just another brick in the firewall. Bigger question, if we get to 6 wins but there are more than enough 6-win teams to fill the slots, would bowls pass over GT’s...

    2017 Bowl Projections

    I’ve been looking at this for awhile now. Over the past two years, six 5-win teams have received bowl invites on the strength of their Academic Progress Rating where GT ranks high. But this year not only are there a lot of 6 win teams filling the slots, but also several likely 5-win teams have...

    Every fun chaos scenario starts with GT beating Uga. We hold the keys to anarchy! Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    IMO : Clean Old-Fashioned Hate 2017

    The part just worries me about your highlight packages is every great catch is on the offensive left side of the field. That’s the Austin’s side every team loves to pick on. If they continue to line-up this #6 Wims guy on the left then we’ll see a lot of throws coming his way. Let’s hope for...

    GT (+11) vs. Georgia

    This GT team shows flashes of brilliance, but often lacks resilience. The offense has shown they can death-march on anyone and hit big plays, while the defense gets off the field on 3rd down. Trouble is in Saturday when Georgia inevitably catches a break, the "Oh no here we go again" feeling in...

    2017 Bowl Projections

    From a fan's perspective, the trick is to join a Bowl Games Pick 'em Pool. Just like March Madness! That's how you make the likes of Akron vs Colorado State interesting, and a Virginia vs FIU fun. Furthermore, after that three week holiday bonanza of football almost every day, once the CFP...

    2017 Bowl Projections

    What is this "waiver" stuff people keep mentioning? Now that there are more bowls than six-win teams, aren't "waivers" a thing of the past? It's all APR now, right? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    3) ...And still behind Vanderbilt who is at 4 wins and plays Tennessee. AND still behind 4-7 Air Force who is slightly favored playing Utah State.

    2017 Bowl Projections

    No. After bowl slots have been filled by all the 6-win+ teams, for the remaining slots they're allowed to invite 5-win teams based on APR rankings. Whether teams have played 11 or 12 games is irrelevant.

    Virginia's QB Benkert is 18-20 with 4 - make that 5 TDs [emoji6]

    How good are we?

    Ok so to be clear when CPJ tried the surprise onside kick against Virginia it was stupid, but when Virginia tries against Miami it's ballsy Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    Back up QB

    Sure arm strength can be improved...marginally. The best way improve your arm strength SIGNIFICANTLY is to change your biological parents. [emoji57] Hopefully TM can fix his accuracy with plenty of practice reps, but sorry we can't realistically expect him to develop an Aaron Rodgers-like...

    Every game matters in college football. We don't need college football to be more like the pros. CFP is just fine at 4 teams. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

    How good are we?

    Let's see: Two long scoring drives in the 1st half before the rain... Tech's usual pattern of "gotcha" big plays after halftime ... one more long drive on our first possession of the 2nd half. Tech was clearly moving the ball well on Miami before the rain destroyed the field. Credit to Miami...

    Its time to avenge the 2009 team.

    Oh NO that was supposed to say "Do NOT watch this link [emoji35]". Of all the facepalm typos! [emoji31]

    Its time to avenge the 2009 team.

    Most Tech fans recall the 4th down Thomas drop. I remember the bigger picture like the original poster bennyjacket said... In our 2nd year under Paul Johnson GT's option attack was well established and running over everybody. That night Georgia turned the tables, rushed for 339 yards on us, and...

    Absurd? Do we want GT to win the next 2 games? Of course, AND a bowl game! But dammit I don't want to finish 8-4 or7-5. This team deserves a shot at another Win to end up 9-4, 8-5, or God forbid even 7-6.
