[QUOTE="Coloradojacket, post: 769610, member: 3070"] Alright so now that Supersize has weighed in here are all the answers. 1. Bill Lewis had a hard time at Tech but it didn't start out that way. He had Shawn Jones Jimmy Lincoln etc. But his great start ended and I believe it was the beginning of the end for him. What game was it that turned? FSU game, we were up 21-10 with like 6 minutes left. FSU went into the 5 verts with Charlie Ward and scored multiple times and we lost. Deflated the team and FSU went on to crush everyone they played running that offense. Who designed that.....Mark Richt. 2. Bill Lewis again, what did he do that basically caused him to lose half the team and create his demise? He decided he needed a pro style quarterback and benched Donnie Davis and brought in Tom Luginbill. He lost the team. Funny thing, when O'leary took over he re- instated Donnie as the starting QB. 3. Speaking of Jimmy Lincoln, what was his most famous play and what was the play call? 1991 Aloha bowl. We scored on Stanford to make it 17-16, still behind. Two point conversion, Option right with Shawn Jones pitching to Jimy for the two point play. I have that autographed football. 4. We had a running back gain the most yard in a single game and the record held for almost 10 years. name the player, yards, year and opponent. Eddie Lee Ivery 1978 against Air force in the snow 356 yards. He also had an upset stomach. I listened to the game on the radio. 5. For years we always played Clemson at Grant field until their fans decided to do something to show how big they were. What did they do and what was the year? 1977 we would not play a home and home against Clemson. We finally played them up there and they beat us 31-14. They told their folks to go to Atlanta with 2 dollar bills to show how much money we would lose. The wrote the score on those bills. 6. John Davis was a center for Bill Curry, what was his nickname and why? The refrigerator mover. In 1984 he pushed William the refrigerator Perry all over the field and we won 28-21. 7. The Georgia game in 1971 had a very controversial ending because of something that happened to help Georgia. What was it? with less than 2 minutes and Georgia needed a first down, It was a televised game and ABC for some reason called a TV timeout, giving Georgia a free time out. Next play they converted and in the end Poulus scored. I was there and we were all shaking our heads going what....... 8. Back in the 70's on the Tech sideline, what did Tech have that nobody else used to keep cool? We had a big old air conditioner. 9. After the win at Georgia in 1984 John Dewberry got a what? A DUI. The Georgia fans made fun of it but who cares, we kicked their but. 10. After the Virginia win in 1990, who did the team give the game ball to? Coach Ross' Dad. [/QUOTE]
