A few notes for Georgia Tech-BYU
1. David Scully won’t play. Justin Moore will take field goals and extra points. Looks like maybe Chris Tanner will handle the kickoffs.
2. Tech is wearing white helmets, white jerseys, white pants. It’s the same combination worn for the Virginia Tech game.
3. At least by one metric, should Tech beat BYU, it’ll be its best win of the season. BYU is No. 30 in the Sagarin ratings. Boston College is No. 104, is No. 105 and Presbyterian is No. 241.
Clemson is No. 23, Virginia Tech is No. 51, Miami is No. 61, MTSU is No. 116.

I don’t think last week was a fluke when ND ran for 270. So, heres to GT putting up 400+ yds on the ground against that awesome run defense BYU has. Go Jackets
If do right, no can defense

Need to be efficient passing and play sound defense. If we do that, we win. Go Jackets.

Our players look smaller for some reason… is it the size of the BYU guys?

The beginning of the end for CPJ. This team is awful and he can’t fix it. 50 cent tix available. DRad can’t afford to keep this here.

YES. the defense has come alive!

Did our defense make a play? I think so, who cares if the Qb had eternity to throw we got an int.

There we go… a 3rd down stop.

At this point, I just want our defense to win this one.

Tevin is horrible today so pj will stick with him and lose again. Too stubborn to change or admit he was wrong. The scapegoat is gone and Pj is out next year.

If CPJ doesn’t give Lee the next series, the GT will impload.

It doesn’t look good… they are beating us in TOP, man-to-man, and our offense is out-of-rhythm. Need to pass more.
stony

With that weak, weak, weak arm, I just can’t believe Johnson is still allowing Tevin to throw.
Coach Z
October 27th, 2012
3:49 pm
Sometimes coaching is about understanding a games momentum. I sure hope CPJ gets this. The defense is directly affected by the inability for our offense to move the ball today.
Lets make this goal line stand and shake up our offense.

@ NJ Jacket….what are you smokin…..Tevin is our QB. This is a loss unless he is benched, big guy.

To all you Fish Fry apologists……splain this high powered offense we got goin toda. Without the int, we are gettin skunked 14-0.

There might actually be more duke fans than tech fans at the game next month. Not many people are going to want to watch us lose to duke as they throw for 700 yards while our Dbs fall down and play 2 hand touch. Family packs should be $5 with DRad taking all fans in attendance to Chic Fil A.
