If you look at the following site: http://www.footballoutsiders.com/stats/feioff you will see that not only was our offense the best in country, but was the best in recorded history by a LARGE margin. Go back and check the previous years and I think you'll be shocked to see how great our...

Personally, I thought our Special Teams play was anything other than "special" this past season other than being consistent on hitting our extra points. I thought our kick and punt coverage was disappointing, and our kick and punt return game was also very spotty at best. Outside the long FG at...

No. 10 GA Tech (11-3) capped off arguably its best season under head coach Paul Johnson (even though it didn't win the ACC this time around) by thumping No. 8 Mississippi State (10-3) by a final score of 49-34. Mississippi State is still an emerging SEC program that spent time at No. 1...

Paul Johnson has now let his team wear the Blue jerseys against two teams that were ranked #1 in the Country at some time in the season (Southern Cal and Mississippi State), and they dominated both Bowl Games. Now I'm not saying it's a pattern just yet, but...
