Injury update

[Eric]

@ksugiuraajc: Johnson had no update on Smelter. Zenon was available to return, but was held out. PJ Davis also didn't finish the game.

Eric, thanks for the update..

Can you please let me know for sure if the refs were ACC or SEC?

 

[jeffgt14]

Hopefully PJ passes the concussion tests this week. Need to give Harrell some credit for stepping up in his place though.

 

[SecretAgentBuzz]

I thought Harrell, Hankins, and McNair ALL played very well in PJ Davis' place. Way to go, guys! Depth is a beautiful thing to have!

 

[jeffgt14]

I kept seeing #2 in the backfield and wondering what defensive back kept getting there. Then I realized it was Harrell.

 

[Tech93]

Harrell is a beast! He stepped up in a big way!

Refs were from the SEC. Apparently they changed the practice of having visiting team refs last year or the year before.

Tx Eric. That was /should've been unsportsmanlike on the scumbag who twisted smelter after already down. Worse than nonsense targeting.

The whistle should have been blown before that happened, but once again the refs ignored what was going on on the field

Feels good to beat the red and white and black and white.

Not sure if it was the same play or not, but one time I noticed that Smelter had been tackled and was attempting to get up when another dwag knocked him down a second time. Low class and unnecessary.

@ChrisYandle: On ACC Coaches Teleconference, Georgia Tech head coach Paul Johnson said DeAndre Smelter is "at best doubtful" for #ACCFCG vs. Florida State

 

[AE 87]

also said PJ Davis and Zenon should be alright

Tony has a broken finger. May be "alright" for blocking but a cast is questionable for ball handling and pass catching. Glad PJ is OK. Sad for Smelter. His injury was a fluke and an after the whistle "miss" by the refs.

Anything with Synjyn?

With Smelter out, FSU will stuff 9 in the box and dare Justin to throw the ball. UGa did in the first half yesterday, and frankly we did not rise to that challenge. It was only after we decided to run, run, run even with a stacked box that we took over the game. Just don't know if we can do that if FSU stacks the box.

I mean, we'll be back to playing a good team from a good conference next week.

Time for next man up! One of the young WR's need to step up. Passes to Hill coming out of the back. Waller have an exceptional day. Perkins over the middle. WE CAN DO THIS!
