  1. i cleaned the garage until after 2am

    A familiar feeling. It was so bad last night that when i looked at baseball scores -- I am sad to say a long time Dodger fan and they seem to be crumbling again -- and saw they got beat 9-0 it didn't bother me at all. Apparently I can't multi-task heartbreak.

    Well done. You know, I could deal with a turnover as the cost of doing business in any offense, but those 14-point jobs as with last night just crush my spirit. I credit Tech and the coaches with keeping their heads in the game after that and getting two OTs out of it, because a Tech score there...

    For sure Miami seems to have turned the corner under Richt -- wonder if Georgia misses him yet? -- and Clemson reportedly is two deep on both sides of the ball and is thinking playoff again. And we do not seem, historically, to play well there. But it's why they keep score.

    Difference is I suppose that I think "our share" is all of 'em.

    I can't stand much more fun like this.

    Can't disagree much. I have about decided that the "extra time" or open week before playing us fuels urban legends because I don't think it helps much. Just gives 'em more time to think about it. It seems to me that those teams which have had great success against Johnson's offense have had...
  7. How long??

    Seemed to me another early game/early QB for which Johnson dumbed down his playbook. When Tenn. cooperated, Johnson ate them up. Shades of Mississippi State.
  8. Defense

    Not to seem combative, really. But exactly what are you saying? If the recruits are "big time" are you saying their hands-off D is on Roof? (I think it is, but many don't, and the problem with hiring a grad legend is having to fire the grad legend. Besides, I think the next D coach hire ought to...

    Waffle House? You are a real fan. Because going there late night is a suicide wish.
  10. Defense

    No sacks all night. Was there even pressure on the QB?
  11. Defense

    not sure how you arrived at that conclusion. Fumbles, yep. And as usual they killed us. But again, now seemingly for the 10th year, the offense chews up real estate, chews up the clock, scores, and in two minutes the defense allows the opponent to run the field to get it back. TOP means diddly...
  12. Backs

    We are two days from kickoff. I haven't seen anything about who the QB might be, ditto the B back, ditto the A backs, ditto ... if one were to tack up a marketing theme on how to turn fans off, start here. Tell 'em nothing; if they want to know something wait until the game. This board, which...
  13. Longest Pro Careers Gt Players

    You know, of course, that the selling point of any college degree is the lifetime earnings, whether it is from Tech or anywhere else. The last figure I saw a year or so ago was that a college graduate could expect to make an average of about $850,000 more than someone with just a HS degree...
  14. Longest Pro Careers Gt Players

    Apropos of almost nothing, but looking at the list with so many from an era long past when average guys could actually get a chance to play football, and play well, the biggest player on the 1959 LSU team was Billy Cannon. He was listed at 209 pounds.
  15. Longest Pro Careers Gt Players

    Add in Maxie Baughan, as good as any of them, maybe better. Linebacker, 10 years in the pros, three times all-pro, nine times in the pro bowl. Linebacker and center at GT in the late '50s Actually coached a couple of years while he pursued his degree after leaving the NFL. If one were to build...
  16. Good team, mediocre record?

    I want we should be perfect after the first game. Right now nobody else matters.
  17. Remember

    I suppose I get what you're saying regarding "sharing", though I have often thought the enemy knows all that stuff already. But I do wonder. With a fan base that is somewhere south of Clemson or Georgia, for instance, a local newspaper that to its shame has given up all hope of actually being...
  18. Remember

    I'm with you. I thought it was what my windows have, misspelled.
  19. Predict the things you might say during UT game...

    1. Why don't we pass more 2. Why did we pass there?
  20. Jonesing for some updates from practice

    I struggle to imagine that on his tombstone.
