Question now is: If Laskey is healthy for Climpson do you start him over Days or stay with the hot hand?? I love Laskey but no way do I bench Days after 400 yards in 3 games. Nice problem to have.

So happy with the way this game turned out. ( unless I missed an injury). Coach and players trust each other and we play a step ahead of the opponent. The Oline is so deep we could mix up first string and second string and have a jumbo package (narrow gap - extra back in back field I formation with legit wide receivers ) and a sprint package (TO , wide gaps - counter plays ) - mason must play all the time since he is an all american. i thought Erin joe did pretty well - he is a load.
Wow the oline gets the game ball today.
They give me great hope for rest of year and in the future.

Great to be 8-2. Looking forward to the next two games but gonna savor this for a few days. Next two opponents will be tough. I think Clem > UGA when their QB is healthy. Could win or lose em both. I want to win em all. This is a good GT team. Best since 09 and damn fun to watch.

Cue all of the "we won't win another game this year" comments.
Happy to be 8-2. I think we've got a great shot in our next two games.

after back to back losses I predicted a 5-0 run and I still believe in my prediction. #BeatClemson

And yet you still hear the talking heads referencing "3rd and long is not where a Paul Johnson team wants to be. ". First of all, what coach's team WANTS to be 3rd and long. Secondly , no punts today, so please retire that sad old cliche!

I'm still pissed we don't get Clemson at night.

I think Synjin has earned the nod next week at B-back. Just my opinion.

I have really enjoyed watching the team this year. Our guys have bought in our system, believe, and it shows. If we can keep that trait year in and year out, we will only get better with the kids we are recruiting these days.

When you can run or throw on 3rd and long (see Synjyn's run today) I'm more comfortable with Tech in 3rd and long than any team I've seen with maybe the exception of Oregon!

Agree. I think when we go back and look at the tape, we'll see the OL probably had one of the most dominant performances of the year. On Synjyn's big run he was untouched at the LOS. We didn't pass that much (didn't need to), but when we did OL gave our QBs more than enough time and our QBs didn't feel the need to get "happy feet".
The OL is quickly becoming a dominating unit. There is size AND athleticism we've been missing since CPJ has been here. The scary thing is, there are guys with higher ceilings being redshirted right now.

Nothing against Laskey, but you have to ride the hot hand. Synjyn is on fire right now and you don't break that momentum. It feels like he easily gets 5 yards a pop every time he touches the ball. Days easily gets 200 yards today if he was in all game. Laskey also needs to be eased back into the rotation so good thing Synjyn is playing well.
Like others have said, nice problem to have...but to me there is no problem. Days has earned the right to start regardless of Laskey's injury.

ABSOLUTELY! Best C we've had so far. And not a bad middle school first baseman, if you can believe it...
