Offense is execution. Defense is effort. The guys on defense turned up the effort after UNC, and it showed. Not saying they didn't play hard earlier, just they found that extra gear. They began to get big plays, turnovers, and stops, and it just grew. As an earlier poster said, we only gave...

After the 2009 season, there were several players that walked away rich: Dwyer, Thomas, Burnett, etc. A lot of others that were big contributors were left behind: Nesbitt for one. I think those that were left were a little bitter. If you were at the Kansas game in 2010, you could see...

Next year will be different. CPJ probably doesn't want me to tell y'all this, but WTF. We're going to average about 250 yds passing next year. Did you not see what JT did on that last drive against FSU? Didn't he have a 4 TD passing game this year? The OL has this pass blocking thing down...

Every few years we catch lightning in a bottle. Most years we just get burned by the lightning, but his year we caught it. Based on our history, there's no telling how far it will take us or how long it will last. I tell the younger Tech fans in my family, that being a Tech fan will be a hell...

I can't get out of my mind FSU barely beating us leaving them conference champions but giving the committee the rationale for dropping them to #5 and screwing us out of the Orange Bowl. That way they screw the top two teams in the ACC, the ACC that they seem to hate.

"Tech has a back-up linebacker on their KO return team standing at about the 25 yd line. Why don't we kick it to him rather than Golden. At worst, he'll fair catch, and they will be 75 yards away with just a few seconds left. Probably, given the pressure Tech is under right now, he'll fumble...

What is Tech's record against uga with Roof on the sideline as coach or player. I suspect around .500, maybe better. Need to make sure we keep him here. Can't say I was happy when we hired him, but he is the top assistant in the conference this year. To have the defense where it was Saturday...

If nothing else, this last month has taught me that I have no idea of just how well this team can play. I think Johnson had an idea what he had in August based on his preseason demeanor. In college football when a team becomes convinced they are good, then they are good. You don't want to set...

I love Johnson telling the team at halftime that we are going to just run right at them. We knew it, they knew it, the SEC refs knew it, and it didn't matter.

We are losing a lot of seniors, true. But the OL that dominated yesterday, the best QB we've had since 2001, and most of the D that is on the verge of being great, will be back. Skill players are nice, are usually plentiful, and can be plugged in easily. That OL you saw on the field yesterday...

I think the committee might be so grateful to us for beating FSU that they might slip us in at #4 given the chance. The entire country hates the semiholes.

Have to agree Boomer. I thought the same thing about the UVA game. Both great road wins, but this one being in athens edges UVA.

after the toughest loss I have ever seen against uga. We blew a 20-0 lead, uga scored late on a 4th down pass and got a two point conversion to take a one point lead after we had stopped their first attempt but were called for a penalty. They ran back a punt for a TD followed by a KO return...

We're gonna beat the hell out of you!

The thing that worries me is that Tenuta held a lot of offenses to under 100 yds rushing. IIRC, there were a few games where the opposition had negative yds rushing. I was sorry to see him go, but not sure if Atlanta is big enough for Tenuta and CPJ. For darn sure Grant Field isn't.

King, Baynham, and Snow will always be the best Tech backfield. Are any of them still alive?

The block by Days on Zenon's run was very like one called a clip on Perkins against UNC. I don't think either was a clip, but if we had been playing UNC or the pukes instead of Pitt, I think it would have been called.

We were really on the OL coach the last couple of years, but maybe it was the injuries and players having to play out of position more than coaching. I agree, that we have had good OL play pretty much every game, and that is with just one senior. I remember a comment from CPJ a couple of weeks...

Justin Thomas looks like Reggie Ball and plays like Joe Hamilton. The OL is made up of young cage fighters. We are now going to just reload on offense, not rebuild for the next few years. The main reason we lost Saturday is that UNC sucks on defense. If they had any sort of defense at all...

I kept telling my wife, "If we had only run two more plays before the reverse!" If there had been less than a minute and a half left when we scored, we possibly could have held them out. Some things don't change. I remember the same feeling when Nesbitt scored on a long run late in 2009...
