Trust me. I know. I make a decent amount of money every fall doing this.How in the hell did you anticipate that?
Watch in the second half of duke game I saw the offensive blocking fail to adjust. I saw IMO the defense adjust to more passive defense. The players looked slow and confused. What's sad and frighting is how razor thin our margi n of victory is against what was once the bottom quarterile of acc.I hope so, but we all watched the guys quit in the second half last week. That becomes a pattern. Things are going to be tough Saturday. At some point, they are going to have to make a decision. They can fight back and go through the discomfort that follows or they can quit again. Once you quit, it's extremely easy to do it again.
In my opinion, this is the first group in a long time to give up. We could always take pride in the guys fighting until the final horn.
This could be the beginning of bigger problems.
I hope they haven't quit on the coaching staff. If so, it's obviously time to move on.
That kills me to say. I am a Paul Johnson fan, but a bigger GT fan.

80% of me thinks GT +11 is an absolute lock. 20% of me thinks we'll get blown out.
Two things about Paul Johnson: 1) he loves to outsmart Bud Foster; 2) he knows that he only has to win one game a year to keep most GT fans happy and continue to collect $3 million/year (with benefits).
Did he spend the week before UVa thinking about VT?
Did he spend the week before Duke thinking about the Dwags?
I think so, which is why GT may be an absolute lock against the spread.
There is that nagging thought that this has been a disappointing season, so the team has checked out, and this game will be a rerun of last Saturday.
Michigan isn't that good this season,It wouldn't shock me if OSU won by 20.As far as other games today. I would not be the least bit shocked to see Ohio St lose in Ann Arbor. I hate UM as much as Uga but, Coach Khakis needs to win today. He's taking a lot of heat up here for not beating his rivals. Minus a down MSU team last year. That line at 12.5 looks too good not to take. That's a very overrated OSU squad.
Right now, I have no confidence in this team playing Pitt or Syracuse and winning. I know, college football is NOT logical and the transitive property does NOT apply, but frankly, we really haven't won big game all year (I don't count VPI&SU). Just a pessimist I suppose but after the Duke and Virginia games, a lot of the shine has gone off this team defensively. And the offense has seemed one dimensional all year.What's sad and frighting is how razor thin our margi n of victory is against what was once the bottom quarterile of acc.

If we win today and he did that... I'm completely for sacrificing a game if it means beating UGA. Even if it means losing to duke.
I don't. I was drunk. Was I good? Sound like I'm asking my wife this question. LolYeah i remember how good you were in the college pickem game last year
