Gather 'round men. Look, for months you've heard the never ending narrative about how our defense was one of the worst in the country. You witnessed firsthand the brokenness that was prevalent in this locker room. You watched our leading rusher quit on you against ugag and walk out the door a short time later. You've heard how my seat is the hottest seat in the country, and how we must win 6 games and make a bowl. The entire offseason was spent with negativity being written about us. About how we have one of the toughest schedules around and how it's not built for winning. Men.... brothers..... the time for talk is over. You're about to take the field against a team who you fought and battled with last year even though you were decimated by injuries. You scrapped, clawed, struggled, wrestled, and made one heck of a statement doing so. Don't you dare hang your heads! You embodied the GriT we pushed so hard last year and I couldn't have been more proud of your effort. Today men, you have a chance to rectify the outcome of that game. You have a chance, on national television, with the spotlight squarely placed on you, to show the world that your performance last year was no fluke. You came in here last year with little to no expectations of bringing home a victory, yet balled out against a NFL QB and gave us a decisive victory in convincing fashion. Tonight, you get that stage one more time against another ranked foe. Against a storied rival. Against a rival who readily admitted they had no respect for you until you punched them in the mouth last year. Now you're no surprise. Now, they have circled you as a game to prepare for. As someone who's a threat to them. Someone who wants to drag them out of Death Valley and into utter Mayhem. You, men, have that opportunity. It's waiting for you through those doors. What you're about to do will be a spectacle readily repeated throughout GT lore. The only time a Yellow Jacket has a chance against a Tiger is when he brings a SWARM. Gentlemen, you are that SWARM. You are the SWARM that will rise up to face the tiger. You will be the SWARM that gives no path of escape until the last second ticks off that clock. AND YOU WILL BE THAT SWARM THAT LEAVES BEHIND A DEAD TIGER. YOU ARE THE GEORGIA TECH YELLOW JACKETS, AND YOU'RE ABOUT TO UNLEASH A SWARM LIKE NEVER BEFORE!!!!
WE GONNA FIGHT, TILL WE CAN'T FIGHT NO MORE. WE'RE GONNA LIE DOWN, BLEED A WHILE, WE'RE GONNA GET BACK UP, AND FIGHT SOME MORE!!!!! NOW SHOW THEM WHAT A YELLOW JACKET SWARM LOOKS LIKE!!!!!!!!
