[QUOTE="Vespidae, post: 256892, member: 2957"] This probably deserves it's own thread, but my favorite Tech game of all time is when we tied Notre Dame, then ranked Nr. 1, 3-3 in 1981. At that time, we had our worst season since 1934. From the New York Times: "Curry, who played center for Georgia Tech, the Green Bay Packers and the Baltimore Colts said, ''Ours was the best defensive coaching effort I've seen in the 20-odd years I've made football my life on all levels of the game.'' It was a strong performance by Tech's defense that turned this game into the surprise it was. Notre Dame, favored by as many as four or five touchdowns, never got closer to the goal line than the Georgia Tech 9. At that point, Tech's defense held and forced Oliver to try a field goal that failed because he kicked the ball into the cross bar and it bounced back." An unbelievable game. I've run into older alums like myself who remember that game. Or at least, we remember it the way we do. [/QUOTE]
