Well looking at historical data it seems pretty clear that the last time Brent Venables was NOT coaching the defense Clemson gave up 70 to West Virginia. I think our offense will have a few kinks to iron out so I'll be a bit conservative and say GT 63-CU 24

Not to further derail the thread (I know too late) but if I connect some dots on the point NE Stinger is bringing up I'd agree it seems lazy to just chalk it up to "government"/"bureaucracy" because that is not something unique to GT. We're competing entirely with other entities who have to...

Very vulnerable. We're getting them this year

Well he was the QB coach from last season and their QB play was poor. Let's hope that's a sign of things to come

Exactly. And it's preseason and we're undefeated. Gold tinted glasses are firmly in place for at least the next 4 days

So you're saying the OC who was instrumental in that improvement later in the year is now gone and they have a green OC replacing him and a QB controversy in the locker room and a true freshman RT that Keion may be able to feast on?? Sounds like they're ripe for the taking... Depends on what...

Yeah, the story I heard when I was there was that the donation was for "green space" on campus. And that's why the top was painted green. A bit dodgy. I have no idea if that's the truth or not though. If that is the logic being used then I guess you could build anything on there and just...

Yeah, the way he laughed when Ken asked about getting to a bowl game made me physically cringe. ....Go Jackets

I've got to believe OP predicting GT to a bowl game would fall under "some amount of optimism"

You know cynicism is frequently viewed or conflated with a sign of high intelligence. It's not. But some people view it that way. may or may not be related to this phenomena

Heck, I'll go even further and say Clemson and Pitt are NOT blowout losses. I still think we got a good shot to upset Clemson. We played them real close last year, I don't think they'll jump right out the gates with Klubnik, I think we have a shot for DJ to start slow and their offense to be...

Agree with this 100% and will be pretty disappointed if we don't see this against Clem. And if you look at last year, FSU and Louisville both played Clem close while scoring 20 or more on that vaunted tigers D and a big factor to that was their QB's getting over 100 yds rushing. Sims has...

To go along with your gut feeling... I've got a historical trend that assures victory on Labor day. Ever since 2016 GT has alternated years between winning and losing the season opener 2016: Win over BC 2017: Loss to Tennessee 2018: Win over Alcorn St 2019: Loss to Clemson 2020: Win over FSU...

For whatever reason and despite all the evidence to the contrary....I'm right there with you man. I'm ready for an upset Labor Day

Re: Plumlee He's dangerous on the ground, no doubt. Interested to see if GT can find a way to make them one dimensional and contain him. DE's need to be on their game keeping contain on the outside. And hopefully someone like Charlie Thomas can act as a QB spy and bottle him up somewhat...

Tough call between 2014 against uga or 2004 against Clemson when Calvin made his debut

Forget it, I just changed my vote to an 8. I'm drinking the Kool aid and buying improvement. Looking forward to taking it to Clemson!

I'm adopting SMU. Local team, get to go to some games, pretty good tailgate scene, they run horses on the field after touchdowns which is fun for the lady friends

The Duke game is homecoming so I'd really hope it's not a ghost town

VT hired Brent Pry Nov. 30th Florida hired Billy Napier Nov 28th USC hired Lincoln Riley Nov 28th LSU hired Brian Kelly Dec 1st Texas Tech hired their new HC Joey Mcguire Nov 8th Most of these are "at the end of the year" BUT still fall before the date we'd save that money on Collins' contract...
