I agree with this but there is a talent gap. That said, teams like Miami have a way of squandering talent. It's just what they do. Nonetheless, the talent gap is most evident on defense in general and the line in particular. We can find little fast guys all over creation. The rub is that...

It would not surprise me if that does not happen. Clemson has a good chance of taking the whole shebang.

I hate to say it but UGA's path to a national championship got harder not easier. They would much rather play Ohio State than Alabama or Clemson for that matter. I don't think it is fair for a third place team to jump a conference champion but that is exactly what happened. Too bad for the...

Yep, no quit in those Badgers.

Good, let your true feelings flow. Don't hold anything back. FWIW I agree 100% but they do deserve credit for putting together an effective game plan and beating a team that had just recently embarrassed them on national television.

Pretty much it. UCF played two teams, I think, that were in the top 25 both times it was Memphis. Did they play South Florida recently? Was South Florida ranked? They are undefeated but college playoffs are for the big boys.

My bad, that movie was what? 40 or so years ago.

Alas, the ways of our Lord are sometimes beyond our comprehension. That said Ohio State has made an impressive statement with wins over Michigan and Wisconsin. I think they get in and shut Alabama out.

I am not so sure about that. I understand the sentiments but if you will recall the early 80s were the absolute bottom with rumors flying that Tech was going to dismantle its program etc. I don't think, even with all the current hyperbole, that we are anywhere close to that. UGA won a...

He did say that but I will believe it when I see it. Until recruiting is done in a professional way (no not with the bag men) with national recruiting for hard to find positions especially linemen this is all window dressing.

Unfortunately, recruiting so often is destiny in college football and for reasons discussed in excruciating detail earlier we are effectively shut out of most of the elite talent in Georgia. Until that changes, there is little chance that we can appreciably close the talent gap in any...

I understand the sentiments but I don't think they will do that. UGA is in like Flint. They probably deserve to be and congrats to them.

I have been given this a lot of thought. The gap between the truly elite of college football which I define as the top 8 or so and the rest of us is wide and getting wider. The reason is simple enough. The elite teams have depth and NFL ready linemen that the rest of us can only dream about...

UGA is very good and is a threat to go the distance but after watching Oklahoma and Clemson I think those are the two best in the country right now. To be honest, I think Ohio State would beat UGA. Of the four, all of whom have excellent teams, I would put UGA at the bottom. The other three...

Clemson will stomp UGA. They are legit. Miami is a very good team probably a legit lower top 10 but not an elite team. Clemson is elite.

Yep, we were the superior team in 2014. The combination of Smelter and Waller on the outside plus the perimeter blocking of the Abacks would have been a handful for any team much less a pretty ordinary UGA squad.

Well, in the prediction contest on the other board I picked UGA because while watching Auburn in the Iron Bowl it looked as though they really left it on the field. We can pretend that the SEC Championship is the more important game but let me tell you to my relatives in the Yellowhammer State...

Personally, and at this point it is all opinion, we don't have anyone that would make the two deep. The disparity is that stark. Absolutely must address recruiting issues.

No, it was the first public housing project in the nation or so I have been told. It was populated during the 1950s by veterans attending Tech and others trying to get their life back together after World War II and Korea. Dad thought it was not the best situation in the world but as he told...

Speaking for myself, we should all appreciate the sacrifices of our veterans. My dad was a US Navy veteran during World War II, he went directly from being discharged to Georgia Tech and had to work part time, support my mother and my older sister who was a baby and all three of them lived in...
