    Depth Chart released

    We're going to need that depth on Defense especially at LB and DB in 2016 as we lose 7 starters off this year's team.

    Depth Chart released

    Usually three or four incoming true freshmen make the two deep by year end (Austin twins, Freeman, Marshall last year for instance) because of depth issues, injuries, or just straight up talent. We have maybe the largest and best class of recruits coming in this year since 2007, and arguably...

    How did you become a TECH fan?

    To those of you that grew up in and around Atlanta: You have no idea how much us small town Georgia Boys will relish the upcoming multi-year mauling of the vomit eaters. So many people I love dearly will suffer terribly, and I cannot wait to enjoy it.

    How did you become a TECH fan?

    It all started around 1917. My great uncle moved to Atlanta from a crossroads town in East Georgia to work at the Atlantic Steel Mill during WWI. Sometime that year, my Grandfather (around 10 years old then) went to Atlanta to spend some time with his older brother. Being that close to Tech...

    Gt football trending upward?

    Those that wanted Johnson fired before last year were IMO delusional. They just wanted an offense that looked like the Big Boys' offenses even if we lost games with it. Had a close Clemson friend tell me after they beat us in 2013 that we had to get rid of Johnson, we were never gonna get the...

    Gt football trending upward?

    IMHO, we've stepped up to the next level. We were a 7-8 win team for most of the last 20 years. I think we are now a 9-10 win team. That may not sound like a significant change, but it is. Higher average wins and lower standard deviation. Better bowls, better recruiting, better crowds...

    Away game tickets

    Things have changed. I got four tickets in '07 and I think I could have ordered more. Looks like I'll only be able to get 2 this time.

    Orange Bowl Redux

    The five MSU guys in front of me kept saying the entire second half, "We can't stop a damn dive play!" Then they would go buy more beer.

    Clemson Crossover Game

    So, we drop our best rivalry game because once every decade or two it "might" cost us the chance to play for a championship. Of course beating them "might" be the game that gets us into the playoffs, too. So we would not play the two ACC teams closest to us. That should get fan interest up...

    Practice #12 err 13

    Woe is me! We lost our best pass rusher, DB, LB, and three other starters on D. We have three new starters on the OL, a QB that has never started a game. Gone is our only productive AB, our starter at BB. The Center and both safeties are trying to come back from injuries that cost them all...

    ACC to Three Divisions?

    Now you've done it. Don't forget Brylcreem, Lucky Strikes (LSMFT), Black Label Beer, and white socks.

    Outside expectations change for Tech

    I expect Johnson reminds his players every day that they aren't good enough to play for UNC, Miami, Clemson, or uga. He has truly become the TECH coach. How many of us were told we would never graduate from Georgia Tech? It took me a few quarters to get my mind right; to tell my future...

    DL could be really, really good

    I remember a couple of guys in high school that played defense because they couldn't remember the offensive plays. Coach told them to just tackle the man with the ball, and they could remember that. Were good at it, too.

    DL could be really, really good

    Not sure what you're talking about. An NFL team should beat a women's powder puff team. I agree "deserves" got nothing to do with it. To paraphrase Hamlet, if everybody got what they deserved, who would escape a beating. Ollie should beat me in golf usually, however I should beat him if he...

    DL could be really, really good

    We might have been a pass rush away from a NC, but we were also a few injuries away from losing two or three more. We got on a roll late, and finished ahead of where we probably should have. Now that roll wasn't because of the alignment of the planets, but because of stellar play, good...

    Practice Day - #8

    At the very least, he is making our OL better and developing as a player himself so he can get a shot at the NFL. We'll just have to take whatever we can get.

    DL could be really, really good

    I remember reading many years ago something that Bear Bryant said. WTTE that the field between the 20's is for the fans, the field between the 20's and the goal line is to decide the winner. On offense, I'd take us over just about anybody else when we get inside the 20's. On defense, my...

    1st Triple Option Master

    Eddie LeBaron rear ended me on I-75 back around 1978. I had a good size bumper on my Toyota Hi-Lux pickup truck, and it really messed up the front of his Mercedes. We had to show up in traffic court the next week. I figured, no big deal right, he rear ended me. When I got there, Eddie was...

    Next Man Up - OL

    Maybe they want Sham-Wow down to 325 because it takes a lot of stamina for a 16 play 12 minute death march. That's why being two deep at OL is such an advantage. If the other side has better DL than you, just keep them on the field until they die. What an odd thing this TO is.
