GT (-34) vs. The Citadel

[laoh]

Hi - sorry off topic, what time will the band march down Bobby Dodd?

 

[ibeattetris]

They decided to schedule a non-conference series because they weren’t playing each other frequently enough as rotating cross division opponents. So while they are obviously both in the ACC, the game is outside the eight scheduled conference games for each team.

I would prefer this be how we preserve our rivalry with Clemson. Remove all ACC cross rivals and let teams schedule them as OOC if they want to keep the games.

Back to original topic. To cover 34, we are going to need to realistically score over 3 ppd. Our average drives last year was right around 12. Since we will be playing a spread option team, I assume we can expect similar. If they aren’t able to move the ball well maybe we get up to 14 drive range.

My hope is we keep them under 10 points, meaning I expect we need 41-45 to cover. At 14 drives that means we need from 2.9 to 3.2 to cover. I think it’s possible, but I would bet against this personally. Also, any reduction in the number of drives makes it much more difficult to cover. I assume we win handily, but only by 3-4 tds.

Looks like nearly 90 degrees but the cloud cover will be around 68% which should help

Of course the game is still 3 days away so who knows with Atlanta weather...

Are we ruling out snow for now? Cause traffic would suck if it did snow

You even talk about snow in Atlanta and they shut the town down for 3 days.

It's not on the ACCN where I live, I get the Furman at VT game. It says the GT game is on the ACCNX which is some extra thing the ACC offers if you have a subscription to the ACCN.

Go to "Watch ESPN".

Go to "Watch ESPN".

WatchESPN is gone. It's all done through the regular ESPN app now. ESPN360 to ESPN3 to WatchESPN to ESPN. All offering the same damn thing. Their marketing department is schizo.

Maybe it was noted, but the start time is 1230. I had to check. Massive national audience of 500 expected to tune in.

As has been said, to clarify:
1) the game is on ACCN EXTRA not ACCN.

2) that means that, like such games last year, it may be on a local channel or a Fox Sports channel

3) otherwise it's available to people who get the ACCN streaming at espn3.com or the ESPN app

4) for those with Sling Orange +Sports extra, you can watch it within Sling but not on ESPN app for some reason having to do with Sling

 

[GTJake]

FYI, the AJC has it listed to be televised on Fox Sports Southeast ...

 

[Southpawmac]

Yeah they sent out a tweet yesterday that it will air on Fox Sports Southeast.

Incredibly bad domain name, great service. Was really surprised last week when I found this site and it wasn't shady...

We’ve been talking about the O line injuries. Good to hear something nice:
@ksugiuraajc: Former Jacket DT Kyle Cerge-Henderson on practicing against Georgia Tech walk-on center William Lay: “You’re not going to take that practice off, you’re not going to take that play off. Will’s a baller.”

Looks like Vegas was off the mark on our game. Its down to GT-26.

Someone from Vegas was reading gtswarm and saw my analysis

 

[bigsands]

45 - 10 is about right.

I think the spread is fair.

If we don’t dominate every phase of the game, then we are in real trouble.

Not my best work.

Not your fault. You expected decent coaching to take place on the Tech sidelines.
