    Game 4 Georgia Tech @ Wake Forest (-7)

    Maximize your chances of getting 7 on each series, and go all in on the boat race. If those drives are short and explosive, then the defense is on the field more.

    Coach Prime to Colorado

    I looked at their schedule—we’d easily be 3-0 with their opponents, and it doesn’t get much tougher. Sagarin has them as the #155 strength of schedule, including FCS teams. They could be favored in every game. Ours is the #36 strength of schedule. If we played Liberty’s schedule, fans would be...

    Yeah, but the people who got the message were the ones they wanted to keep (and didn’t)

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    A #60 defense keeps us in a lot of games. We probably win Louisville with that.

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    You don’t fire anyone to send a message. Sending a message doesn’t work—at least, not for long. And if it’s not the coach’s fault—if it’s the players who don’t have their act together—then you showed the team that this is a place to get away from. When I had a manager get fired for something...

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    Pitt keeps showing up with a reliable defense. An urban school can do it—and if you’ve seen Pitt’s campus, it looks like Georgia State. Looking at the some of the numbers. We’re getting some of the worst defensive performance in FBS. It’s not the opponents—we gave up more points to SCST than...

    I saw the second half of BC yesterday, actually. Their QB was playing out of his mind. Why they got ranked so low, I don’t know

    Yeesh, how bad were BC, VT, UVA, and Pitt yesterday?

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    @JacketFan137 and @Eli, it looks like you both need to take a break from each other. I’ll temporarily give you a short break from this thread. Personally, I’m gonna go outside and enjoy myself. I know the game yesterday sucked—it wasn’t a great use of MY Saturday evening—and I hope everybody...

    We’re Tech people. You’d think we’d try a root cause analysis and figure out what was the problem. Seems like we can have a good offense or a good defense, but having both is a rarity

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    There was one play in the 4th quarter where people said the Ole Miss running back dodged three tackles. I didn’t think anyone was near enough to make a tackle—it was one of the worst defensive series I’ve seen in a while.

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    I’ll see if I can find the articles. The criticism wasn’t time of possession—it was that the practices gave the defense the short end of the stick, and that they got bad at things like tackling Same thing is going on at USC—they just score a ton...

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    One of the criticisms of the Western Carolina, Texas Tech, and Lincoln Riley offenses is that the practice pace speeds up to give the offense reps, but the defense gets sloppy. I didn’t think it would happen to us, but the timing aligns. It’s the B12 “win games 44-43” scheme

    Postgame GT 23 - Ole Miss 48

    I’m almost rooting for Alabama next week (I’ll probably root for a temporal rift sending both teams far away, but that ain’t happening) The defense doesn’t have that one player who really brings the lumber. Charlie Thomas could hit and wrap up. Dart could run without consequences tonight...

    They won on a BC penalty. Appropriately.

    #FireNorvell They still lead, but FSU is choking—dare I say “Seminoling”?

    ACC Standings

    I’m now confused as to which team has a Heisman candidate. BCs QB threw two passes in a row that could have been TDs, then he ran for the TD on 4th down.

    ACC Standings

    Whether or not they pull off the upset, BC’s QB is having a game. It’s the kind of game where you gotta applaud the guy

    ACC Standings

    BC is still showing effort, but down 31-10, they’re out of it. BC’s QB is a threat with his feet, and throws well enough, but they kept messing up the little things. I’m not sure that BC deserved all the penalties they got. They set the wrong school record today (most penalties in school history).
