No GT beat Michigan State 10-0 in 1971,24-14 in 1972 and 17-14 in 1985

I think we would have beat them in 1952 too and put an end to the nonsense of a 9-0 team claiming they were better than a 12-0 team.

Nope and I wish we would play them again. The excitement I had when I thought we were playing them in the Orange Bowl was epic. I called and text every Sparty fan I knew to talk **** and then we got Miss St...........

In 1964 Michigan State was voted #20 in the Coaches Poll even though they had a 4-5 record and Illinois was voted #18 in the 1962 Coaches Poll even though they had a 2-7 record

WOW

I was hoping we would get them in the OB too.

They beat no teams that were ranked either. We crushed # 6 Duke (lol), # 7 Ole Miss in the Sugar Bowl, and edged # 12 Alabama.

WOW

The Polls have been screwed up for a long time in 1960 the AP Poll ranked 4-4-1 Purdue #19 and 9-0 Yale #14 and in 1959 5-5 Notre Dame was ranked #17

You can laugh if you want to, but back then playing Duke was no walk in the park. Can't remember if Wallace Wade was still around but he was the only man that Bear Bryant was really in awe of. At a players reunion during the late 1950s from when the Bear was playing and Coach Wade was the coach at Alabama, everyone was smoking and talking (remember these were grown men well into their late 30s or so) until Coach Wade walked into the room and everyone hastily put out their cigarettes knowing how Coach Wade felt about them and you could hear a pin drop. That is how much respect the Bear had for him. Stands to reason Duke named their stadium after him.

Duke was no laughing matter in football during that time period.

I don't doubt Duke was stout back then. Just funny to look back on now.

It was funny in the context of Tech sharing a national championship with a team that won only 9 games none of which were against a ranked opponent. Unfortunately, Duke has become a problem again with Coach Cutliffe. I really think Tennessee made a big mistake not hiring him when they had the chance. IMHO

He turned Tennessee down flat because Fulmer was his friend

I stand corrected, again, by the ubiquitous MikeJacket. Son, you have got to quit doing this to me. It's humiliating.

Sorry Sideways

That's all right. It keeps me in practice for when my wife complains about the yard.

Given the headwinds from the Georgia Board of Reagents and other recruiting limitations, those four national championships along with the bowl wins is truly remarkable.

I miss the days of Tenn thumping ugag regularly when Fulmer was HC.
