    Bryan Chamberlain

    If I remember correctly, Bryan is a late-comer to football, so-to-speak, not beginning playing until just around he was starting High School. This means he really wasn't much further along his way than Francis Kallon when he came on campus if you think about it, and if that's the case, I think...

    2015 Heisman Hopefuls

    5. Georgia Tech QB Justin Thomas In his first year running Paul Johnson’s offense, Thomas was exceptional, but as the Georgia Tech coach was quick to point out, this could be just the tip of the iceberg. With a year of experience and wider latitude in directing the offense in 2015, Thomas...

    CFN 2014 QUALIFIED (weighted) Season Rating

    These rankings are based on the CFN Historical Season Formula, meaning it's how good the seasons were overall, and NOT based on how good the teams might have been. The idea behind this is to figure out which programs had the best seasons, and it has nothing to do with talent. It's all about...

    Shaq Mason named 1st Team All American by USA Today

    I think when the Bleacher Report came out with THEIR All-2014 Team, and gave out THEIR individual "honors," they decided that they couldn't do that with the Offensive Line and just awarded the ENTIRE Offensive Line AS A GROUP to US rather than Individual Awards, saying OUR WHOLE works better...

    GT providing the blueprint

    I think what makes OUR offense AS difficult, or perhaps MORE difficult, to defend, than those like Oregon, is that we run ours from UNDER CENTER, rather than from the Shotgun, and our B-Back dive play gets downhill so fast that it puts a tremendous amount of pressure on the inside defendors to...

    ESPN's All-ACC team

    Shaquille Mason, Georgia Tech: The only ACC team that rushed for more than BC? The only one that kept its QB unscathed more than Duke? The Yellow Jackets are the answer to both, with Mason captaining an oft-overlooked unit that was absolutely integral to the program's resurgence this season...

    Justin Thomas for Heisman in 2015?

    If Justin can "outplay" Dak Prescott in the Orange Bowl, then I would suggest that would be a great "springboard" for a more "formal" path to a Heisman Trophy. We'll have a National TV audience to ourselves, playing against, perhaps a preseason favorite for the Heisman for next season, and I...

    Shaq Mason named 1st Team All American by USA Today

    I was thinking the same thing; he couldn't even make 1st Team All-ACC by the biased Writers' "bloc". What a joke.

    Paul Johnson and His Players

    This is what I've been saying for a while, and what I think PJ has been looking for since he won the ACCC (that was stripped from us) and then he promptly fired his Defensive Coordinator because he wasn't satisfied with how our defense was playing. He then turned the reigns over to a supposed...

    College Football Playoff: Conference Payouts

    Rolling Stone's Take on the ACC Championship Game

    Georgia Tech's three-card monte offense left Florida State defenders grasping and missing. Quarterback Justin Thomas performed so much sleight of hand the refs kept checking to make sure they had their wallets. In one play in the second quarter, a receiver started in motion in one direction...

    Are you familiar with Tourneau Watches? Those are damn nice gifts. On top of that, they'll get Coastal Division Champs, Orange Bowl/Orange Bowl Champs rings from the AA.

    By the Numbers

    Georgia Tech held a 10 minute, 50 second edge in time of possession Saturday -- the fifth straight game it had an edge of at least 10 minutes. It's average ToP margin during that span was 12:56. Overall, Tech finished the season third in time of possession, trailing Michigan State and UTEP...

    One thing the GT brass should have learned last week....

    This is, I believe, why his teams at Georgia Southern were so successful in that Division's Playoff process and why I think/hope that if we're ever able to make into that Top 4 (or 8 when expanded), we'll have a legitimate chance of winning the whole thing. Coach Johnson has an offense that most...

    All-2014 Season Team: Top Performers

    THIS is exactly why GA Tech is able to compete against teams comprised of so many 4 and 5 star players with just 4 on our roster. WE play like a team instead of a bunch of individuals, and we're very "coachable".

    All-2014 Season Team: Top Performers

    Just an FYI - they gave Individual awards for every position other than the Offensive Line; they just gave the ENTIRE OFFENSIVE LINE to GA Tech as a whole. Damn good respect.
