Weekly Winners that Will Help Ga Tech

[FredJacket]

With an eye on "the ultimate prize"... let's discuss preferred outcomes of weekly action in order to propel the YELLOW JACKETS to the CFB PLAYOFF discussion &/or the highest possible ranking.

It's pretty simple Week 1.
1) Ga Tech WIN
2) All future Ga Tech opponents win (see UGA caveat below)
3) All ACC teams win.
4) VT over FSU in lone intra-conference game.

(After a few weeks, this gets too complicated for me to sort out...soliciting input and opinion, for sure)

Not sure why some were already pulling for Duke to lose last night; heart over head, I suppose. ... I can understand. But it's good Duke won. Also good Wake won in OT on Thurs.

The UGA caveat. Just can't do it. Go Austin Peay!!!...but beating the undefeated SEC champ Bulldawgs in Nov would be a BIG DEAL....I must admit.

A VT loss to FSU puts GT a half game ahead in the Coastal.

A VT loss to FSU puts GT a half game ahead in the Coastal.

Yep. We definitely need FSU to win to put VT behind the eight ball.

 

[FredJacket]

See... already too complicated.

LOL

We play CU, VPI, d'oh U, and georgie.

If we win the ACC and have no more than 1 loss, we're in. We don't need Duke and Wake wins for SoS.

 

[jeffgt14]

FSU and Willie Taggart can go **** themselves especially after hiring Mickey Andrews. Go Hokies and I don't care how it affects us.

I pull for the ACC teams not because I like the teams but it helps the strength of the conference. My 2 favorite teams are Tech and whoever is playing uga!

If we go undefeated there’s no argument against us being in the playoffs. Period.

If we lose 1 game, there's no argument.

 

[dressedcheeseside]

If we lose 1 game, there's no argument.

If we lose the ACC championship game I doubt we get in.

 

[knoxjacket]

I hope VT, Miami, and UGA go winless.

 

[Animal02]

If we lose 1 game, there's no argument.

If it is between a 1 loss GT ACC champion and a one loss SEC "didn't even play in the conference championship game......I can guess who gets selected.

Squarely in the "good problems to have" category.

After watching the Alcorn game, it is apparent that expectations need to lowered just a trifle there from playoffs to say...winning season.

What's weird is finding myself happy for Aubie to keep the Pac12 out.

Funny about expectations. Looking at full schedule ahead of us, I don't expect Tech to be in playoffs. However, as each game sits before us (singularly)...I will see a path (i.e. expect) to win that one.

....so, I'm telling you there's a chance!!

 

[melloace]

UNC QB is currently 2-11, 7 yards with 3 INTs and a pick 6. Down 17-0

I recall the woe is us mentality by many posters half way through Orange Bowl season

True!

No, "woe is me" mentality intended just the honest opinion that we need to get better, MUCH better, than we showed today. Taquon, for all his supposed faults, is our quarterback. Without Lucas, there is very little behind him so he needs to: one not get hurt and two improve his passing. It is apparent to me that he was a little excited with first game jitters. OK, that is past him. He can do better but Camp and Stewart have to get open and the tackles, well...let 's not go there.
