  1. Any chance ND gets snubbed? Final 4 prediction

    With conference championship games, you've already got something of a play-in. I genuinely hate the CFB playoffs. I don't *need* a playoff or even want a playoff. From a pure entertainment perspective, polls creating the final rankings gives us MUCH more to talk about for years than a playoff...
  2. Off Season How well do you know Georgia Tech Football

    I'm just surprised anyone could come up with a Jimy Lincoln trivia question.
  3. Penalties and Discipline

    Coach K is snickering...
  4. Jeff Sims Film Review

    I'm pretty sure sack yardage has always (and today) counted against the rushing total in college FB. By the way, those stat's are amazing. It has been 30ish years since Shawn played, but I'd have told you all of his numbers were much better than shown there. I'm in disbelief that his career...
  5. Jeff Sims Film Review

    Jeff is good in the open field. Not necessarily good at choosing when to run or at finishing runs. I've seen Jeff get KILLED because he doesn't have enough "wiggle' at the end of runs. I've seen Jeff slide when he needed to get the extra yard for a first down. Also, he doesn't necessarily...
  6. Jeff Sims Film Review

    I'll one up you and say he did better than OK. But I'll agree that it is too early to draw any conclusions. Next fall, I really want to see improvement over where he is now. I'm assuming we'll have spring practice, even if it is relatively late.
  7. Collins report card after 2 seasons

    And that's the problem with kids these days. Plus the lack of steam radiators in dorm rooms.
  8. Collins report card after 2 seasons

    It doesn't matter, Mr. Blutarsky. A 0.0 is the same on every scale. ;-)
  9. Jeff Sims Film Review

    Why in the world would you use passive aggressive language like that to create a statement that I didn't make? C'mon man.
  10. Jeff Sims Film Review

    Lots of people here have seen a freshman QB who started off playing well for a freshman and didn't develop far from there. Sims is good for a freshman. It is up to a gazillion factors (work ethic, coaching, teammates, scheme, injuries, etc) to see if he develops into a really good or great QB...
  11. Jeff Sims Film Review

    I hope you're right, but I'd lay huge odds against you. He's more talented than a lot of our previous QB's, but he has a long way to go (and plenty of time) to develop the feel for the game that Hamilton, Godsey, Dewberry, Jones, and others had.
  12. GT secondary ranked #103 by PFF

    I would hope the ratings are more about how they perform in their own little DB bubble. Were they in position? Did they defend the pass? Did they make the tackle? My sense is they have underperformed this year.
  13. Lights situation is starting to be embarrassing

    Generally, back-up power is to run enough lights to make the facility safe to evacuate, not to run a bunch of lighting to illuminate a field for TV.
  14. Officiating

    All the calls and non-calls were questionable. The issue was that they threw the flag every time on us on a questionable call, and ate the flag when they could/should have made the equal/opposite call on Pitt. Example. Sims got knocked out of the game at the very end. Let go of the ball, got...
  15. Pittsburgh Post Game Thread

    I don't have a problem with either coordinator. It is hard to coach around losing in the trenches. I thought our D was in position to make most of the plays tonight. Then, inexplicably, a Pitt guy would run out of the pile or push the pile another 10 yards. That may be effort, it may be size or...
  16. Pittsburgh Post Game Thread

    I think it would be money well spent.
  17. Officiating

    There are bad calls in football. The game moves fast and lots of calls could go either way or be no calls. But I've never seen a game where all of the subjective calls went against one team. Pitt was holding repeatedly and never got called. They interfered with Camp (?) several times and never...
  18. Crucial DPI on GT call. Video/GIf in post.

    Listening to "homer" radio guys is funny if you aren't emotionally involved. Homer: "We might have gotten away with a little Offense Pass Interference there." Translation: "Our WR grabbed the DB with both hands, threw him to the ground, then made the catch for a first down."
  19. NC State Postgame

    Funny. I worked pretty hard to NOT make it a cut and dried statement. ;-)
  20. NC State Postgame

    I heard that too. I don't pretend to be an expert on QB play, but I value Richt's commentary there. Rarely (not never) have I seen a guy substantially improve his accuracy over time. I have seen inaccurate guys get better at decision making and reading defenses, but accuracy, not so much. I...
