I like ours the best. Of course, I am a little bit biased but I can see some others that are quite good. On Wisconsin is nice. Notre Dame Victory March is great. The Victors (Michigan) is very catching and Fight On (USC) is a classic. Most of them are just lame or the tune is not that...

This has all the makings of a trap game. Team A (that's us) is coming off a last second win over a top 10 team while Team B (that's them) is deflated. It is in the house of horrors Whoville. We have traditionally played poorly there. I am going to say we win but will struggle. No Devine...

Confidence is a wonderful thing. Our young guys have grown up and become men. It's just that simple. Very proud of our players and how they represent the Institute. They may not have the hat trick at signing days or 5 stars but I would not trade them for anybody else's players. Have you...

Most teams play us in this formation with the middle linebacker about 5 or so yards back. I don't think it is that effective UNLESS you have an honest to God sideline to sideline killer on cleats (like Sean Spence with Miami a few years ago) who is athletic, easily avoids linemen, and plays the...

It was electrifying to be sure. I was watching with a friend who is a Florida fan and he made an interesting comment midway through the third quarter: " I don't know how, but I think Tech is going to win this game" Are you sure? I asked "Yep, FSU has fallen into the trap of playing Tech's...

Agree, except for possibly the kick against UVA in 1990, the muff and the Calvin catch against Clemson, Wadkins one hander against Clemson, Don Toner's interception against Alabama when they were number one, and of course, the 53 yard kick against Georgia last year coupled with the interception...

If there are any advantages, I have yet to see them. The main problem is getting pressure on the quarterback. Back when we had Guyton and company ball carriers looked liked they were being swarmed by fire ants. Now, we are almost robotic. Not playing fast or loose. And no I do not have a...

In a nutshell, this is why this offense is perfect for us given the current climate and recruiting restrictions. Emphasis on total team effort, execution, elimination of mental errors will get this team where it wants to go. They just need more experience, practice, and more practice.

Beating Georgia covers a multitude of sins. Not beating Georgia is what killed Chan Gailey among others. Coach Johnson probably sees this more than most of our recent coaches except for O'Leary. I don't think we can beat them but they are beatable for this team with some luck and a few...

A bit of a contrarian opinion but here it goes. Our problem is not experience so much as a glaring lack of talent especially in both lines. Our recruiting has to improve. It is time to target nationally those positions we cannot fill with instate talent such as offensive tackle and defensive...

Thanks Boomer for a well written thoughtful analysis. I am impressed by MM as well. He has that "burst" that has been missing at Bback for quite a while. The only complaint I have is we are throwing the ball at inopportune times for this offense. The beginning of the second half, for...

The only goal that makes sense at this point is to continue to improve and let young players gain experience. Recruiting is an issue that absolutely must be addressed. We are not getting enough good players on defense. This is inexcusable. No more quarterbacks trying to play linebacker or...

Ok Boomer, I see what you did there with the "SEC"! I happen to be a special education teacher at a rural high school in south Georgia and I swear some of my higher level kids have more sense than these idiots that jabber on SEC Rant that can't express themselves without using the F word. At...

Boomer! I didn't know you were a "Junction Boy". Sounds like Bear Bryant's methods. We probably need some of this as we got some boys that need to reach down and see what they got. I can remember, Embry Peeples against Miami coming out and blocking an out side linebacker and just took him...

Ok, let's go to a spread or hurry up offense and try competing for players with the factories. It will be a losing proposition. Either they can't get in school or they are not interested in getting a real education. The triple option is the only way we can be competitive under the current...

The opinion of a 60 year old is next to worthless on what goes on inside the mind of an 18 year old, but it is worth noting that JT did say something to his father about the culture at Tech being radically different from Alabama and that he felt more at home here. Recruiting is, in the best of...

Funny thing, back in the day probably before some of you young folks were even born, UGA was said to overachieve under Coach Dooley. They had talent sure but the state did not produce the abundance of riches back in the 60s and 70s that it does now. The only thing about UGA back then was how...

I honestly do not think it will be all that close. Clemson is on a roll. It is amazing to me that they can lose the caliber of players they lost on defense and actually seem to be even better. I would have bet the house that losing Grady Jarrett and the linebacker whose name escapes me would...

There are three main reasons for why it is notoriously difficult to maintain success at Tech: There are three main reasons for Tech not being able to sustain success after a great season: In no particular order Recruiting, Recruiting, Recruiting. It is difficult as Wake, Rice, Tulane...

On the other site's prediction contest, I predicted UNC virtually alone among the 25 or so participants. I don't think UNC is all that great I just still see problems with perimeter blocking and line difficulties. This is a matter of "want to" for both teams struggling to find their respective...
