No Tech fans (or those who watch enough of our games) would characterize the offense in such a manner, correct? I am not sure how to even understand this metaphor. An analogy to piranhas maybe or the easiest (of course) to swarming Yellow Jackets makes some sense as far as trying to say the...

They are always incredibly focused against GT. Tech is the one that loses focus on this game (see BeyBey dropping a ball). They have to be focused on it as they know full well that there future capacity to be gainfully employed depends on UGA football's prestige in the state of Georgia.

I will second the mental factor for UGA being tougher. Over the years I have strongly suspected at times that Tech players just don't have the maniacal a-hole toughness and plumb dog mean in them regularly enough to fare well in this huge rivalry game. Look at how Duke played so dirty this...

Of course it all comes down to media bias and agenda. It is the same in all forms of t.v. (well really all mainstream) media that they coalesce easily around a "narrative" and they stick to it no matter what occurs in the real world. The whole point of having a bias is to make dealing with...

As usual with the way the NCAA operates (and I know that is supposed to mean the way the college presidents operate) there is plentiful middle ground to be had. You can restrict such events to simply one a year per college with some kind of "non-profit" requirement as well as to only be played...

It was a great way to build fans. In fact I think the GTAA might be able to find a way to be inventive enough to try and find things that replicate or update this old lost tradition. Bobby Dodd @ HGF is a great resource for its location, history, the skyline surrounding it. Obviously NCAA...

Lord, y'all aren't doing hate week right. Clearly Xenoabe is not going to do anything untoward let alone illegal unless he is a total idiot. That is unlikely since he is a Tech fan and posts here. So posts in the thread are just for amusement purposes only during hate week. I would probably...

I went with my grandfather often back in the early 80s. He was a Shriner and they were involved. I think the NCAA allowed freshmen to play on Varsity in the mid 80s (85-6ish) and that killed the game off. We would pick up boxes of food from the Varsity and go eat it in the stands at the game...

On JT's long run in the second vid my brother and I were yelling "stay outside!" I have no idea why he made that first cut back to the middle instead of staying behind Smelter and then running down the sideline. Especially as I would think he knows the AB is coming down that side and will also...

UGA is on the road and FSU on a neutral field, hence UGA game harder.

This reminds me that I never saw anyone point it out but in Tech's game against Clemson their center kept sending back terrible shotgun snaps to Stoudt all game long. I kept waiting for him to sail a snap over his head.

How do you back into a conference championship when you have the best conference record in your division? UGA will "only" have the tiebreaker if Missouri loses again. Even that isn't backing into it. Do they even try to think . . . ever?

4 teams was such a total crock. I really do not understand who truly has control of this nonsense. I always hear "its the bowl games" and that "they" have so much influence and money involved. But who are the "they"? Local chambers of commerce, state politicians and city councils or...

Glad to see people buying out the GTAA as I believe that in the championship game and the bowl games they are forced to purchase X amount of tickets.

I do really enjoy and love this offense. I don't care what the Tech coach decides to run in principle however, as I am a fan of the program first and foremost and just want to see success. However, for me the appeal of this offense in comparison to any other is very basic and simple. I cannot...

My problem is not actually on having a state board of regents but on what they have a say in, or at least how extensive their power is in determining college/university/Institute (so I don't get jumped on) internal-specific decisions. Changes to majors or adding and subtracting majors, let...

I found the audio link. It is an interesting one since it starts with the Bruce Feldman "CPJ wants a buyout" talk. But at the end is where he answers on Petrino. http://www.stationcaster.com/player_skinned.php?s=87&c=672&f=2290663

These wins are also conference wins. In past years we fans got to stew over scoring a ton and having blowouts of lesser teams and then thinking our offense couldn't perform as well against BCS opponents. Most conference games were close wins or losses (with the odd Syracuse game tossed in...

What an awful way to run a state university system. Just saying.

But to reverse course from this (quite natural) digression on trolls back to the extension. I want to make a comment about MBob. I remember when Petrino was hired at Louisville MBob was on for his weekly sports radio chat on whatever silly show with silly flapping gums on some kind of...
