Jakiah Leftwich again graded out well. I want to see a right side of Williams - Leftwich … I know I’m repeating myself.

Also hate seeing 3 of the 5 worse are OL. Not a good recipe.

Lol gee with the one qb spy sack/stop, I’m sure he’ll take it. Powell-Lee coming up big after losing king. Brooks has been our most consistent player.

Jeff literally worst to first. Great game, young man.

It’s now three straight games with that swing. He graded out first against UCF too

 

[GaTech4ever]

Zamari Walton was targeted 9 times and gave up 1 catch for 8 yards

 

[GaTech4ever]

Charlie Thomas had a really rough go in the run game, second lowest grade against the run (38.0) in his career and by far the lowest on the team against Duke.

I missed Thomas’s terrible game; what did they see that I didn’t?

Edit: posted right when you were answering

This was Sims’ best grade of his career. Top 3 grades:

1.) 2022 vs. Duke (86.4)
2.) 2020 @ NC State (86.0)
3.) 2021 vs. UNC (85.0)

1.) 2022 vs. Duke (86.4)
2.) 2020 @ NC State (86.0)
3.) 2021 vs. UNC (85.0)

So sims should just face Carolina schools every week is what you’re saying

 

[GaTech4ever]

Running backs by snaps played against Duke:

1.) Hassan Hall (70)
2.) Dontae Smith (10)
3.) Dylan McDuffie (3)
4.) Jamie Felix (3)

It’s clear we have a #1 RB and pecking order in that room now. I’m not 100% sure why it’s this drastic between #1 and #2, but I don’t think it’s because of the offensive scheme we ran against Pitt.

 

[GaTech4ever]

This week was our highest coverage grade (77.2) against an FBS opponent since @ UNC in 2018 (81.6).

nice additional tidbits - anything of note on the OL/DL?

1.) 2022 vs. Duke (86.4)
2.) 2020 @ NC State (86.0)
3.) 2021 vs. UNC (85.0)

...and he could have played so much better against Duke. Which scary to think about because he played one heck of a game.

Our overall pass blocking grade is 38.8. That puts us at #127 out of 131 FBS schools. I’ll do a bye week post and do overall season grades next week.

Psst! Hey you...yeah you on the offensive line or tight end...wanna play more? Block someone. Better yet, pancake their *** so Jeff, and the running backs can do their thing.

I am surprised it is that high.

I don't know about you but if my team were playing against Tech I would make sure that Thomas and Ace got full attention on every play because both of them have the potential to turn your quarterback's day into a nightmare.

 

[stinger 1957]

I wonder if Thomas worrying about another targeting call is changing his game?
