Georgia Tech vs. Virginia
I’m about 20 minutes outside of Charlottesville, riding with former esteemed colleague Dave Fairbank of the Newport News Daily Press.
We’ve passed the time talking about Chairman Groh, the fun of Paul Johnson, etc.
When I get to the press box, I’ll start posting some notes.
In the meantime, tell me about your favorite places to go on the road, stadiums, cities, eateries, etc.

Let it be known that I am not throwing rocks at the ACC. I think at the end of the year, it will be one of the stronger conferences. Yep I said it and I think the numbers will prove me right.

Cuz I know it’s a rivalry game but GT is gonna win. It may be close at the half, but this team will wear down the dawgs. We were favored by 5 today. I jumped all over that. I also took Miss st cause all these sec teams are about even cept for vandy. Bama ranked 1 and can’t score a td. Sorry but tech would be beating this team today.

uga easies tgames are coming up…and you will see how wrong you are about uga offense when they wipe the floor with tech..how long do you think uga will have the ball against that creme puff defense tech has..teams score on you guys liek crazy and tech has the ball most of the time with that high school offense the run..uga will have a run game trust by the end of the year..those freshman and sophs are getting better with each game so they should be nice and ready for tech weak d…uga has played 4 teams already that would berat tech..at least..

JACOB you have to get USC in the top 25 and UGA beat them again on the last drive. NCSU fumbled the kick inside the the 10 for the only USC score, but it was the USC so they must be great. HHAHAHAHA F the SEC, ABC, and ESPN.

look bama is not that impressive to me. i’m sure you ga and sec fans will laugh. fine. but they haven’t scored a td against tenn? all i am saying is based on what bama is showing, gt should be ranked right there with them.

The top five defensive SEC teams are in order, Florida, Bama, Vols, Ole Miss and believe it or don’t, Vandy. Tech will destroy Vandy. They would beat Ole Miss by a field goal, be in the game but lose to UT and lose to Bama and the Gators as we stand now. Just based on the numbers I put together for my DC fantasy league. LSU would be a close one. The Jackets “could” beat anyone in the SEC not named Bama or Florida.

Bama is great because of their defense, Florida also, Their offenses score just enough points to win.

45ACP no not winning, but 1 hell-o-a-better game than what you are seeing now. BAMA’s QB is as bad as J. COX and Compton, but he has a better O-line.

CUZ we will not know about OLE MISS because they backed out of our game and wanted to move 4 years out. Tenn has refused the chance to go home and home with GT for the last 3 years. UT is scared and wants to get paid BIG to lose. Miami scored again DAMN the U.

Bama before today was holding teams to an average net rushing of 78 yards per game. That is something that even Nesbitt, Dwyer and Allen would find difficult to beat.

Cuz, you’re probably right, but still, Bama hasn’t faced a triple option offense either. Even a great defense can get suckered in and watch a back run straight down the field.

Well you see Jacob, when you have these high powered athletes competing at the highest level for college football you have these types of games (Bama/UT). They my not look very impressive to you right now but if you were playing one of these teams today, you would get crushed. Jacob….the SEC is just a whole different level of college football. Think of it this way…the ACC is the epitome of college basketball and the SEC is the ultimate in college football.
You my disagree with this but a lot of NFL scouts would correct you….proof is in the pudding.
