[QUOTE="BCJacket, post: 322489, member: 2332"] I'll give you the benefit of the doubt that you're not troll and that's an honest question. Because, it's not an unfair question. IMHO [B]1. "Why was NC able to make us look so bad offensively?"[/B] - The last two years there have been several games where the OL missed a huge number of blocks. Tech loses those games. CPJ has commented on this numerous times. The Notre Dame game sticks out in my head. To me, it looks like opposing defenses have come up with new ways to try to confuse the blocking assignments. They're lining up the D in unusual positions. So, when the play develops in real time it's hard for Tech's blockers to identify whether the guy in front of them is "their guy" to block. UNC was one of those games. It was just a sloppy day. Still, Tech had 518 yards of offense. [B]2. "Why won't other teams expect to have the same success defensively against us as did NC?"[/B] - I'm sure they will. Good luck with that. [B]3. "Why should we really expect to be better this year?"[/B] - Should we? We won 9 games last year, that's pretty good. I'd take that same result on a tougher schedule. But: The OL got better as the year went along and brings back most of the starters. The team overall is more experienced. There's some very talented players coming up.
