    Week 9 PPDvsPwr5 Rankings

    As I've discussed elsewhere, I calculate a Points/Drive vs Power5 opponents. I use cfbstats.com as the source of the data. I count all scrimmage offensive TD's as 7 pts. I ignore run-back TD's and any Safeties. Typically, I only rank teams that have played at least 3 power-5 opponents, but...

    Marshall to start versus UNC...

    I appreciate that point of view. I'm in the camp that says TW didn't get the respect he earned. Still, I don't think TM has played as well as TW. I also think TO 2018 has played better than Vad 2012. To your question, it would depend on whether, and how much, they scored.

    GT (-4) @ UNC

    Watched the UNC vs UVA game. UNC had a lot of decent passes that were just really well defended, DBs causing the drops with well-timed hits. I think we're going to need to play better D than we have. Hopefully, we'll be "good GT" on O from here on.

    GT (-4) @ UNC

    Our D isn't that good. Almost any D is good enough if we score every drive.

    Marshall to start versus UNC...

    Start TaQuon for two series. Play Tobias for two series, and then decide.

    Three dumb questions

    Learn your font. Some don't read. As I suspect you know, Bud has a young D whom he prepared for the triple. When we hit them with QB sweep etc, they weren't ready.

    Clearly play calling should transition to cel phone polling.

    Word I heard was we lost each half

    Marshall to start versus UNC...

    That quote explained starting TO over TM, who only practiced one day before vpi.

    I didn't know @MikeJackets1967 was an Auzzie. Thanks for the link. I was surprised that Mark's time down under was just passed over with no mention.

    O-line vs VT

    To posts early in the thread: if you watch vid from @Longestday you'll see that vpi did blitz the backside LB on tail motion just like Duke. We just blocked it. You'll also see a good bit of cut blocking on plays where it's called for.

    Virginia Tech Schadenfreude #GTvsVT

    That sums up my feeling about the CPJ time frame thread, followed by :cry::cry::cry:

    Who you got? Parker Braun or Shaq Mason?

    Fwiw, I was still muttering, "Gilbert," with every false start through Trey's playing career.

    Paul Johnson time frame.

    Fwiw, when you say, "the entire game turned on" a single play in a game we won by three scores, you lose credibility, imo.

    Virginia Tech Postgame

    On the Triple option, we scoop (cut) the backside DL, iiuc. So, I think Foster lined up so that the DL who would be backside would be off the ball ready to defeat the block.

    This, and Lee hasn't practiced at Tackle for a while. We get a bye next Sat, so I expect Lee to be playing Tackle against vpi.

    Blue. Pants.

    So, your argument is that GT can't introduce the regular use of Navy Blue in pants and jerseys because GT has a history of introducing new traditions?
