[QUOTE="Boomergump, post: 235170, member: 639"] What has happened to GT against UGA in the last 30 years or so? Is it talent? Is it psychological? Is it coaching? Why is the record so bad? My synopsis starts with zero respect for the "stars system" of recruiting rankings: UGA has generally had better QBs (as has been stated) UGA has typically had better depth (as has been stated) TECH has "wanted it" a little too much, especially after losing a few in a row and the biased ATL press giving a ton of love to all things "leg humper and SEC". When you are young and embroiled in heated competition, wanting something sooooooo badly, you rarely are composed enough to play at your best, especially when it matters most. That is my experience coaching young people. UGA had a bit of a streak. That engendered confidence and relieved some pressure on them and increased it on us. The best thing that could happen to TECH in the next UGAg game would be to download a false history in every TECH player's brain that we actually had a 70-30 win ratio against the mutts over the last 30 years. That would do it. I don't think we recruit better than them. I also don't think they have been THAT MUCH better than us over this time span either. Don't get me started on the refs and some of the BS calls, it will just sound like sour grapes. They have Jasper Sanks in 1999 and Hamilton's no fumble in 1998. What do we have? about 30 ridiculous calls in their favor over the same time span. [/QUOTE]
