So I attended Tech a few years after the national championship... suffered through that horrible 1-10 season as a freshmen. But I was always proud of Tech's deep football tradition and the fact that our national championship happened quite recently (not anymore now). As famous as that team was, I never watched a single game.
Well tonight, I finally watched that famous 1990 Virginia game. First qtr was all Virginia. You already know the ending but it had me worried... but what happened through the next three quarters was just magic. What a game. And OMG we had BEASTS on the roster. William Bell, Shawn Jones, Ken Swilling, that 315lb #70 guy... geesh... I was just watching the game, enjoying the high powered, confident offense and defense.
You know what I noticed though? Both GT and Virginia would play the option, more than you expect and it was quite normal. I just really do not understand all the fuss about how we're an option team with the high school offense... (I know, preaching to the choir).
But man, what a bunch of guys... it was very enjoyable.
