[QUOTE="Cam, post: 681864, member: 568"] There's a pretty great article by Andy Staples on The Athletic about all of the improbable pieces that had to come together for LSU to pull off this championship season. Reading some of the quotes, I couldn't help but feel some similarities between Orgeron and Collins: The other obvious similarity is their cultural fits with their respective institutions which they grew up around. Collins and Orgeron share the fact that they both had to campaign heavily for themselves to get their respective gigs. Orgeron's character just plainly wouldn't work anywhere else except LSU and he was consistently ridiculed elsewhere, and you could argue Collins' style works specifically well for the swagger-filled Atlanta atmosphere (and maybe not a small-town school). Obviously, LSU has numerous advantages over GT in terms of money, fanbase, and resources (DC Dave Aranda gets paid $600k less than CGC), but the coaching similarities are interesting and reassuring. I'm pretty happy for Orgeron. [/QUOTE]

How many points did Georgia Tech score against Cumberland in 1916?
