Not sure when I've seen all the Tech boards so lifeless

I think the built up expectations for the season and the crash after the Duke loss are difficult pills for any fan base. Still here but excitement about the season not where it was a month ago.

On the bright side, it could be worse- we could be Auburn or Arkansas fans

Or Texas.

After watching Delaware average 5.7 yards per carry against UNC, I see this game as a litmus test for the season. I think the offense do much better this week, but if we don't get over 300 yds on the ground tomorrow, we will probably struggle to win games all year.

Quinlan's article sums up a lot of the reasons for the offensive woes.

On the bright side, it could be worse- we could be Auburn or Arkansas fans

Or UGA fans regardless of whether winning or losing...

I think our Oline will get back on track this week. Skill guys worry me till they show they can make blocks and occasional clutch plays. D will have a battle on their hands. UNC has a prolific O. If our O struggles it will make for a tougher assignment for the D. Closer we get to kickoff the more I think this game will be close. I predict a lot of foot stomping, teeth gnashing, and chat raging from the fanbase.

Altruism. I'm a cubs fan. And a Bulls fan. And an Atlanta Sports fan. I was there when the Falcons lost to the 49ers in the NFCG. And for the Bravos "in"field fly game. And game 1 of the Hawks eastern conference finals. And the last two GT - FSU ACCCG.

As much as I love GT football, one man isn't bigger than the team. I shall take my curse elsewhere.

I've got to be honest, I'm down lower than whale sh!t, the offensive problems seem way worse to me than at the begining of last year or at any other time during CPJ's tenure. That being said i will never quit cheering for our team and hoping for the best.

We knew this would be a tough year. We'll be fine. These are resilliant student athletes.

We have two MBA students on the O. We'll figure it out.

Still here. Not much to say beyond what has been said. Really hoping the Jackets find some heart and focus today against the Tarholes.

Thank you sir....may I have another?
Still here

No, I don't think we will be back to 2014 proportions in one week, so 31 is about the most I can see us scoring. Winning will depend on a very good effort by special teams (don't kill us this week, guys!) and defense.

Well called, unfortunately.

Pessimism everywhere.

Does anyone think we simply can't be as bad on offense as we looked in the last two weeks? That maybe some unusual set of circumstances led to the poor performance at South Bend and Durham? And that maybe playing in front of the home crowd against a lesser defense, we might see the offense we've been expecting show up?

1991 again, big expectations with good Jr QB and then---CLUNK--disappointing to say the least
