Conditioning also cannot make up for the fact that lack of depth means your starters are in there for too long. Is there a place one can find advanced individual stats such as number of snaps played, etc for college?

I’m not in favor of Tech hiring Sanders as coach for the simple reason that I don’t believe the Hill would make the changes needed for him to succeed here. And frankly I even slightly lean on the administration’s side here. But the idea that Prime Time would burn the budget down is beyond...

Only looking at the for sure TDs (and there were several in just 2 games) ignores all the for sure 1st downs of which there were also many. We would certainly have won the Louisville game with holding onto the ball better. Ole Miss is more of a stretch, but entering the 3rd quarter with a lead...

Tech would possibly have been 3-0 if our receivers were half as good as these Colorado State receivers in holding onto the ball.

This is a reflection of our lack of depth on defense and was completely predictable. Here’s what I said in the chat at halftime: “The worry I have is that we don’t have the depth on defense which might leave us exposed in the second half as the starters tire. “

About a decade ago when the AV system was upgraded, I distinctly remember that the first few games the sound was also uncomfortably loud. However, they adjusted it and it was great the rest of the season. However, now, not only does it seem to be back the uncomfortable loudness of those early...

As of today, an undefeated ND with a best win over OSU clearly pushes out an undefeated FSU with a best win over LSU.

Which is why it sucks that the last decade or so the NCAA was led by an SEC clown. Someone smarter would have encouraged the players to form a union and negotiated a CBA so college football could have remained a competitive 120 team league. Instead we have a ridiculously lopsided system thars...

The difference is that the NFL is a single league. The NFC East is significantly more valuable than any other division but they spread their money out to the rest of the divisions (except a grandfathered clause that allows Dallas to keep certain earnings only to themselves which no other team in...

To put this in context, you’re comparing the most extreme SEC travel with the average ACC travel. GT in Atlanta is centrally located but event the. you could be traveling to Dallas one week and Boston the next and NorCal the following week. If the California teams are gonna play all their home...

Tech is giving away tickets. I can buy $3 tickets right now at SeatGeek. I never saw this kind of discount as a student in the 2000s. It’s crazy.

Lol the ACC has become a clown show. I understand why UNC was so mad now about admitting new teams. So basically, if UNC has to compete with an SEC team for a non revenue sport all the SEC team coaches need to remind the players is about the awful travel schedule. The non...

The entire place is painted red and black? It looks like a UGA game.

I don’t understand why tech doesn’t always have great kicking. There are enough above average kickers coming out of HS and most are not going to the NFL. A free ride at Tech should be extremely attractive to the best kickers coming out of HS.

ESPN has been doing a good job covering this game. No wide angle shots of the stadium and they’ve only been zooming into the student groups when Tech scores etc. But they just did the first wide shot for an instant and MBS looks awful. The stadium is looking almost empty so all you see is a...

I hope I don’t jinx it but King looks like our first legit QB since Thomas. And he looks much better than he did last year underscoring how poor a coach Collins was.

This entire post is very astute. Also, you just need to look at student attendance around the country to realize college football viewership will only be declining.

The B1G doesn’t care about the carriage fees anymore because the B1G doesn’t own much of the Big Ten network anymore. They sold much of it to Fox. Also, with cord cutting increasing massively, the value of carriage fees has consistently been going down. That’s the issue with Tech turning...

The 24 team CFB playoffs are gonna be a joke. Nearly every player with NFL aspirations is gonna sit them out. I won’t be surprised to see a game where #1 Alabama loses to #12 Cincinnati by forfeit because Alabama doesn’t have enough “healthy” players to field a team.

Yeah, why would anyone care about a league with an order of magnitude greater skill where there have been as many distinct Super Bowl participants (2 teams in a league of 32 teams) as CFB playoff participants (4 teams in a league of 120+ teams) since the CFB playoffs existed. Who wants to...
