#GTvsMIA Postgame

Anything short of beating u(sic)ga in the National Championship and some people in this fanbase will still complain.

Are you serious?

We were handed a win. Made a play when it mattered, but a serious blunder resulted in a win. We were man handled all night.

Yet no one remembers who had more total yards or who was manhandled just the final result. Also I still fail to understand Georgia Tech fans logic. If we had 4 turnovers it is the fact we have no talent and were out coached but when we create 4 turnovers it’s because the other team handed us a win?

I agree, the 2nd half was much better than the first. The point still remains, 4 turnovers and an all time blunder handed us the game. At no point did I think we were in the drivers seat.

Did those turnovers just happen or did we cause them? We still had 75 yards to go with 26 seconds vs a team we barely had 150 yards against all night. C'mon man. We were in the driver's seat because Miami couldn't do what they normally do....score. Just like a passenger can't change the radio station, we didn't let Miami do anything.

Miami also ran 83 total plays. They didn’t impose their will at any point. So I am missing getting “manhandled”

It was a blunder, but not a gift. Paul Moala made them pay for their blunder by stripping the ball.

That was one of the most physical runs I have ever seen. He just kept driving his legs. I told my son at the time that Jamal can probably squat more than I can.

My only issue with the game is why does Haynes not get more touches. He should be getting 2/3rds of the touches for RBs.

So because I’m not happy with the way the team played…I’m a bad fan? Got it.

It was absolutely a gift. Blunder is too kind and minimizes the colossal and epic failure of coaching by Mario.

You're not a bad fan at all. In fact, I've always enjoyed your posts and you're unquestionably a very loyal fan.
But I have to say I think the team played great. They played with guts and fortitude, which is about nine tenths of college football.

“WE WERE ON A BREAK!”

 

[slugboy]

The game stats are something out of HP Lovecraft (gameonpaper). Don’t look—you may go insane.

The winning percentage here is by play, not by time, so it’s not as drastic as the ESPN chart:

And the expected points from offense are a race to the bottom (by plays, Miami ran more offensive plays than we did)

I can't stop watching that last play!
Thanks to THE dUmb!

The U stands for Uh-oh.

Didn't pick up on this, but apparently Cheney had 99 yards going into the fumble play. Tinfoil hat on, but is it possible that Cristobal put the entire game at risk just to get his RB a 100-yard game? If so, that would make it infinitely more funny lol

Thought the same thing

Well, he got his hundred yards, something he can tell his grandkids about (omitting the last unpleasant detail).

I'm thinking those Black uniforms are just plain bad luck for anyone who wears them.

I'm willing to chip some money to get uga to wear black against us.

 

[presjacket]

I can’t remember being so immediately opposed to a single playcall in my lifetime of GT football.

The 3rd down reverse to Calvin in the 2006 ACC championship game.

 

[bke1984]

Noticed the slide live and thought it might be an issue. Makes me nervous just watching the replay. No idea what he was doing. Just keep running man.

after watching it this morning I honestly think he just lost his footing looking backward.

We had a coach recently who cared more about stats than winning. Cristobal might be in the same position as that guy before long.
