Yes and Leonard played his best game of the year. I suppose that since he gave us fits when he was at Puke, he decided to come out of hibernation and do it again yesterday. We get the usual game this year out of him and it's a lot closer out there. Well … if we had gotten our FGs completed. I...

I think Butler will be a great player, but several times yesterday he seemed to be at sea about where he was supposed to be. Having Efford out there would have been a plus. He's a missile. The big problem was not having King available. This was Pyron's first big game against a nationally ranked...

Went to the game, despite my longstanding dislike of MBS. It takes longer to get where you are going and it is harder to get out of then any other stadium in my experience. The old stadium (Old? They tore it down about half way through its useful life.) was vastly superior, imho; especially in...

I picked them by less than 7. It could just as well go the other way. Caveat: both predictions assume Tech plays a largely (there are always some) mistake free game.

Bear Bryant always had his players keep their helmets on when they sat on the bench at Grant (not Hyundai, GRANT) Field. Good idea, given all those Coke/beer bottles.

I don't think they aren't getting separation. Singleton and Rutherford, in particular, are open on many long routes. I think it's that recently King hasn't been able to hit them when they do get separation. I noticed this a few games ago, but I figured that since deep throws are usually...

If they don't then they are in, as George Bush the First said, "In deep doo-doo." Navy has great team speed and a lights out QB in Horvath. I've talked here about Bryson Daily at Army, but while Horvath is no where near as physical, he is faster and a better passer. They could beat ND; indeed...

I said in another thread that Buster/Weinke may not expect that the WR screens work well every time. It's more a matter of the results when they do (20 yards or so) and the way they only occasionally lose yards. Even when they "don't work" they usually get 3 - 5 yards. Same with the quick stuff...

Yes. I'm not sure if people here remember Tim Byerley who was Thomas's number 2. Believe me when I tell you that Tech would have won just as many games with Timbo in there as if Thomas had not come to Tech. In high school, Tim never looked like he was doing to much until you looked at the stats...

As I've said before, Pyron starting = Kansas State O. That is, if Buster/Weinke know how to make that work. Pyron is exactly the kind of QB they habitually recruit at KSU. Good passer, strong and fast, but not necessarily cute is their recipe. And it works, provided you have a goodRB to go with...

I keep saying that I've been watching Army football a lot recently (when Tech isn't playing in the same time slot). Here's why. Watch Bryson Daily in this, especially his first TD: The guy is almost impossible to stop. Admittedly UAB is not very good, but Army could very easily end up in the...

It's like I was before I had my knees replaced. Some days I was Fred Astaire, other days Long John Silver. I would bet that it's a matter of King's shoulder loosening up.

Why should anything change with Collins coaching at another school? This was pretty much his trademark at Tech.

I'm late to this; have a cold. What I thought while I watched the game with my son: • I was all ready for overtime when Bazinga! Jamal deserves a lot of credit for the TD that won the game, but it was the OL that made the blocks. He ran by the second level and it wa all green grass from there...

It's the old George Halas story. The Bears were on the verge of scoring, but George had a play he wanted to send in. Problem = no timeouts left. He grabbed a DB by the jersey and said, "Go in there and get hurt!" It' been around for ages.

Yep. And I was right ticked when I did.

I think it means agents. Lots and lots of agents. They are already there, of course, but this business means they will proliferate even more. The terms in the agreement are disturbingly vague. I'm as puzzled as you are after reading the linked article. Lord knows it's enough to leave any...

I wouldn't predict this one if my life depended on it. The best way is to look at the results against Puke. The so-so Puke O won against the Holes at the last minute after a sparkling D performance in the last half. We whipped Puke after letting them get ahead ("You live by the blitz and you die...

I continue to be bemused by the way college football ignores obvious and tried solutions to th inequalities in the game. And what might those be, I hear you say? Luxury taxes a la the NBA. Admittedly, this would lead to immediate political and donor problems. (The two are joined at the hip.)...

Oh, balls.
