After cooling of both from the heat today and my disgust of one of the worst games in the past 40 years, Tech has some serious issues. And in no particular order
1. Kicking. Need a 5 star place kicker. Neither we have now are what Collins would call "elite".
2. At halftime I went on record if Oliver and Mason did not play every down Tech would lose. I remain confused on the rotation on offense. I know there are those on the board that have their favorites at QB. And quite frankly Coach Collins, I don't care about the ATL stuff. Rotating QBs is not working. Oliver is clearly the key to offensive productivity as well as Mason. If you are truly committed to playing players ATL, then fine. If you want to win games, play the gamers. Of all the negatives from the game this is where I depart from the rest of the forum. There are kids who are just gamers. May not be the best looking in practice, but when the pressure and the game is on the line, there are just kids that are gamers.
3. Defense. Tech did not set the edge today. Nor was there any disruption of the 3O. Citadel was able to push the d line. I realize Tech is not deep on the d line, but against Citadel?
4. Tech looked like Miami today. And in the way that I hate Miami. Poor sportsmanship. Dancing on the sidelines. I will have to do better with this because that is where Collins is taking the team, but it does not mean I have to like it. Sorry, but dancing around on the sideline while an FCS school is "schooling" you is embarrassing.
Collins does have a beef with officiating at the end of the game. The officials did say the clock starts on the snap.
I was at the two Furman games referenced earlier. But this one seems so much worse. I am not sure what Furmans record was, but Citadel was 0-2 beaten by Elon...
Most troubling is I do not think we have seen improvement in the team since game 1. If there is something any of you think the team or staff has improved on please let us know.
