[QUOTE="bke1984, post: 139193, member: 932"] Yep. Hopefully good things continue. I hope we run up a 3-4 game win streak on them again. 98-00 was so much fun I was thinking about our series with them the other night. You want to see something crazy...look at the records since 1989 in Athens and Atlanta... Tech is 5-8 in Athens since 1989 Tech is 2-11 in Atlanta since 1989 WTF is that? We've got to beat them at home two or three times! Three games come to mind: 1997, 2009, 2013. There are others as well (2006 comes to mind), but we're supposed to win those games. We win those three and we're 5-8 at home and 5-8 away. That would put us at 38%. That I could live with. It's going to be tough for us to get to a 50/50 split with them for a long period of time. As much as I hate them, they have NFL caliber talent lining up to enroll every year, whereas we have to do a much better job of talent evaluation and training. The problem is that it's tough to point at every close loss and say we should have won...you're not going to win EVERY close game, but 6 out of 25 is not very good. There's always going to be years where they just blow us out, and we'll just have to live with those. But we need to get the close games to a 50/50 split. [/QUOTE]
