  1. Path to the Coastal

    Sickening is what it is. Virginia Tech has BC as their rival? What do they have on Swofford? Duke with Wake is understandable as is, as much as I hate to admit it, UNC with NC State. Miami has to play FSU every year so there is that. Besides those two deserve each other.
  2. Stats QB/BB/AB rock-toting distribution, 2008-present

    This is interesting. If I were an opposing defensive coordinator, I would make the quarterback keep it. Bad things happen to defenses that allow A backs to get to the corner at full speed. The stats clearly show that the big plays in this offense are most likely to come from the A backs...
  3. Path to the Coastal

    Makes sense but I think you can count on VT being at least pretty good and more than likely a very tough row for us to row. It just seems like every year, (I am exaggerating for effect but bear with me) Tech always has the hardest or second hardest schedule in the conference. I suppose a lot...
  4. Path to the Coastal

    If there is a way, in that scenario, you can bet that ESPN and the NCAA will find a way to keep us out.
  5. Path to the Coastal

    Nah, UNC would get our spot by virtue of coming within, say 30 points of us in their loss. We would be then be, in your scenario, odds on favorite to play Tulane in the Liberty Bowl.
  6. Path to the Coastal

    I agree with all of that but the very last. You must understand that losing those kind of games is a job reserved for Tech. I would love for Miami to lose two of the three that they have but I don't see it happening. We are just going to have to beat them and lose only one game. It is a...
  7. Path to the Coastal

    On the contrary, the road to the Coastal title always goes through Blacksburg. Beat Virginia Tech and well, Miami, and you have got something cooking. Easy to say, tough to do in the best of times.
  8. Defense

    To be honest I did not think it was that high.
  9. Defense

    Want to be a football player? Do what Saint does. Lift, run, lift some more. Constant, consistent improvement like he has accomplished and you will be a force to be reckoned with as well. Very happy for this young man and have noticed that he and his cohorts at end have played very well.
  10. Jones

    He can throw it that's for sure.
  11. Jones

    JJ is a quarterback period. Mark my words Jay Jones will be the starter one of these days. He has that IT factor all over him. Of course, TM has plenty of IT in him too. Best not sleep on LJ either. Do we really need to recruit another quarterback for 2018 class? Just asking.
  12. Pitt Postgame Discussion

    Looks like targeting to me by #40. He is leading with this helmet and looks to be helmet to helmet. What was that about our cut blocks resulting in so many injuries?

    An excellent and apt observation.
  14. GT (-9.5) vs. UNC

    I am afraid it did. May have helped the defense and the offensive line which Coach Johnson said was sluggish against Jax State but the timing was clearly off and we just looked rusty on offense. We will have to play better against UNC because you know Fedora will feast on our defense to some...
  15. Pitt Postgame Discussion

    Yep He takes what he can get much more so than JT5 did.
  16. GT (-9.5) vs. UNC

    They lost a couple more against Duke. I cannot remember who or on what side of the ball but they have a few starters that they will be missing against us. I don't know our injury situation other than Marshall (the lineman not the other one) was out and may be out for this week also. Will has...
  17. GT (-9.5) vs. UNC

    True dat! I see we have a scholar that quotes Winston Churchill's famous description of the Soviet Union following WWII. Impressive.
  18. Pitt Postgame Discussion

    It is not a question of "better" so much as different. JT5 was famous or infamous in some quarters, for slow playing the option at times while TM is a more decisive player. I am willing to bet that Coach Johnson is more comfortable with TM's style. He is a natural triple option quarterback...
  19. Pitt Postgame Discussion

    That is the mark of a maturing program with athletes that have been through the fire so to speak. Benson struggled some against Jax State but fought through it and had the game of his career. I like the way TM takes responsibility and his rapport with Coach Johnson is good to see. Finally, in...
  20. UGA update

    They are very talented, as always, and have a as you put it, a scary good defense. Maybe the best UGA team since Aaron Murray's senior year. 2013? 2012? The year they won their division and played Alabama for the conference championship and came within a whisker of winning. Not saying...
