GT had a bad night at Bobby Dodd Stadium but, remember we are still 10-2 verus Ga 7-5. I am sure we are going BCS bowl and Ga is maybe going to Sherevport, La for the Independence Bowl. Don”t forget what a GA player calls a GT graduate after being out of school for ten years. That would be BOSS.

As of right now, Ga Tech seems to be afraid of “Greatness.” There’s no excuse for the dropped ball.

Hey “Saint Simons” -
Tech alum and huge fan here. I’ll give you kudos for the win and for putting the real Saint Simons in his place – even I couldn’t stand reading his posts for the last year. But seriously, be the bigger person here and win with class. One post was fine, but with every extra post you make, you are stooping lower and lower to the level of the real Saint Simons.

Georgia vs South Carolina for the ACC championship. When a middle of the road 7-5 team beats your conference champ it doesnt say much for the ACC.

Tech’s defense is disgusting. Spiller will destroy them next week, and concrete his chance at the Heisman.
Find some excuses Techies…Your team just didn’t show up, and got beat at home, at their own game. Running the ball.. Georgia got back to their roots, and took the ball away from the suspect players(Cox)..

I went to Emory so I cannot claim true allegiance to either UGA or Tech. The events of last night, however, beg answers to two questions.
1. How weak is the ACC? Clemson and Tech’s showings against non-conference opponents is embarrassing. The ACC championship game ends up having the same interest as say a Wyoming vs. Montana match up. It appears the ACC is sort of a WAC of the east…or worse.
2. If, as Paul Johnson states, the Georgia game is no big deal to Tech, why did they get those silly rings made last year after they beat Georgia?

I must admot now, the SEC is far superior to the ACC. Clemson loses to SC and GT loses to UGA. The best of the ACC gets crushed by the middle of the pack SEC. The last offensive series for GT showed that CPJ is not the greatest coach of all time. What a shameful choice of plays.

Nope, we won’t make rings for beating up on GT this year, because although this is a big win for our program, this is a game we expect to win.

First and foremost Dave Wommack needs to be FIRED!! Uga played their best game of their miserable season and TECH still had a chance to beat them with their star player injured. We will take a year of bad breath uga fans talking (usually incoherent talk followed by burps) but not matter how good the win feels, TECH will out-rank you at the end of this year and the beginning of next year!

To all of you Yellow Maggot fans with all of your excuses, a little quote from the H Dawg: “Winners make adjustments, loosers make excuses”. Suck it up and take it like the Maggots that you are…You don’t have any choice, because it isn’t going to get any better for the next 8-10 years!!!

GT Fan….Perhaps Georgia played their best game of the season and perhaps GT overlooked them. However, it is possible the ACC is really, really weak and GT is just the best of that lot.

You want to know the best part of the win last night is? We know we were pretty bad this year… We know it, the press knows it, ESPN knows it (they’re not really the press), and the NERDS knew it… but guess what?!? 30-24 – and we suck this year!
How does it feel to have the other side on your boards incessantly? Take a hint jackweeds – and stay in your little nerd-dom.

It’s funny how ecstatic all the GA fans are about this win. What I don’t understand is why they are so die-hard about UGA when they didn’t even attend. GA fans are losers, even when their team wins.
What’s the difference between GA fans and GA Tech fans?
Neither of them went to GA!

UGA returns all 5 OLmen and King and Ealey both return next season. Imagine how good we will be with Murray at QB next season. Get ready for another long run of beatdowns Jacket fans. Oh and as for PJ…I actually like his offense and I’m not one who thinks it want work at this level. I don’t think Tech deserves to have him as coach. He deserves a much better school. Why…well Tech just doesn’t deserve to be “good” period. And you sure don’t deserve to be on the same level as UGA, let alone, “better” than us. This win just proved that last season was a dream from which Tech fans have now woke up from and realized that they are actually living a nightmare. Order is restored and all is right in the universe.

It’s interesting to see how all the UGA fans can do now is trash-talk and diss the Tech fans after the game. It was a good football game, both sides made mistakes, and it was a great game to watch. So Tech lost – they’ll rally and beat Clemson if I know my Yellow Jackets. As for UGA? Whatever they go on to play in – be it a bowl game or whatever – good luck to them.

KENNESSAW JACKET…Let’s get a couple things straight. My Dad was a Tech grad and so was my brother. Dad may have been one of the biggest Techies in history and loved his Jackets. He is gone now and Thanksgiving weekend hasn’t been the same the lat 20+ years. As far as being my boss, that’s bulls**t. I’m a UGA grad and in my employ are two former Tech full scholorship football players who do menial labor…and I mean labor. My brother, the Prodigal Son and cum laude Tech grad was nothing but a worthless drug addict, and embarrassment to the family and a total waste of humanity. He died last month after years of me keeping him on the payroll and being his defacto father/caretaker. It was the happiest day of my life when he died. Sorry, but true. I actually always hope Tech goes 11-1 each year, in loving memory of my father, so long as that loss is to UGA. It is people like you who give Tech a bad name. I would love to biotch-slap you for my father.

I can’t wait until Tech goes to the Orange bowl and wins it and ends the season 12-2. Tech will be ranked in the top 10, sorry UGA your win is just that unimportant. We’ll be in TAMPA next week and MIAMI at the beginning of next year. Have fun in your Shreveport or Nashville or whatever wonderful destination you get to endure.

GT lost not because Georgia was a better team, but due to having an arrogant village idiot moron putz for a head coach. Anyone that would throw two deep balls art the end of the game with so little time left is incompetent. GT should unload that fool. What a jerk.

Lets face it, Tech got beat badly last night. Our offensive and defensive fronts Dominated your puny pathetic excuse for lines. Our Coach Mark Richt once again proved that he owns GT and that crappy car. Did you see the fear in CPJ’s eyes? He realized that his bugs will never be able to win another game against the superior athletic and academic institution from Athens. Maybe he can give some more rings to try and get his team up to play Clemson next week for 5th and 6th place in the SEC east. Tech will wind up on the smurf turf again. Go back to your dungeons and Dragons nerds……ITS A DAWG’S WORLD AND YOUR LIVING IN IT.

All of a sudden the GA/Tech game isn’t important? I guess that’s why rings were made last year to celebrate Tech’s one win this MILLENIUM! Heyyyyooooooo

This blog has 90% UGA posts on it. I love the ones “who cares about Tampa now” posts. These posts are not by Tech fans.
I would like to know what the issue is with the pathetic D. Are the players not athletic enough? Are the coaches the issue?
We need bigger lineman. UGA man-handled the tech O and D lines. UGA created big holes in the line when they were on offense and allowed nothing up the middle when they were on defense.

If we are going to have a bad game (like vs. Miami) yesterday or next weekend, yesterday is a better time. Next week is for a good bowl.
I hate to lose to Georgia anytime, but get your game back and beat Clemson!!!

How on earth the folks from the ACC think that their conference is anything more than a basketball conference still confuses me. 0-3 yesterday against the SEC and the two teams playing in the ACC championship game got a beatdown from two middle of the road SEC teams. The conference is an embarrasment to Division 1 football and they should only count a win against an ACC oponent as 1/2 a win.
An ACC championship and 50 cents will get you a cup of coffee and that is about it.

As poorly and pathetically as we played, it says something that we were right there, in UGA territory with a 1st down and only 46 yards to go to win. Apparently, UGA isn;t all that good afterall. I just was surprised at 4 passes in a row. There was plenty of time. After our 4th incompletion, there was 62 seconds left. Spread that pout over 4 playes and you have an extra 15 seconds a play. Plenty of time to run some option plays.

PS. Mark Richt’s record: 8-1 against Georgia Tech; 12-1 against the ACC!!!! Chew on that one termites!

I am from Boston originally and what I witnessed was a UGA team that just physically and brutally whipped Tech at the line of scrimmage. No excuses, no buts, no ifs, they just did it! Tech fans need to realize that their 10 wins were earned playing a schedule no better than the WAC, MAC or Conference USA. Get over yourselves, the entire nation thought Tech was overrated and your in-state rivals from a much better conference just proved it. They ran up your gut all night and you never stopped them. So quit whining and crying!

Hell, your sorry team even had rings last year with the score on it. Savor that win last year, because UGA just kicked off another streak.
