Tech-North Carolina live blog

Welcome

A few notes, nothing of grave substance.

1. Tevin Washington will start. I’d guess Vad Lee will make his appearance in the third possession.

2. How Georgia Tech defends Giovani Bernard bears watching. Tech is 4-1 when it allows 150 rushing yards or fewer, 0-4 when it doesn’t. First-down rushes, in particular, will be important. (You could also point out that Tech is 4-1 playing teams whose offenses aren’t very good, like Presbyterian, Boston College, Maryland and Virginia.)

3. UNC opponents are 10-for-12 on field goals. Perhaps it’ll rub off.

Enjoy the game.

Special teams is making the difference today for Tech. And there’s another TD. Tech’s best showing of the year so far–on O and ST anyway.

We’ve seen a field goal, kick-off for a touchback, tackle for loss, fourth and gamble stopped. Another TD. Wow, oh, wow, oh, wow. Where have they been hiding Tanner?

@ 1 4 GT……it WOULD be nice to be at home, but it’s SO SWEET to be doing this at UNC’s homecoming. We just can’t let up now.

Did we just win the track meet?
I liked “did the air just come out of Keenan stadium?”.
Told u he wasn’t all bad as an announcer.
He called the 1990 Virginia GT game so I give him more slack than some because of that.

I’m okay with a token start for TW against Duke.

But it should be abundantly clear: Vad starts at UGA.

Tech scores 70 today…

Btw, is it clear now to all of you what just a THREAT of a passing QB can do to open up our offense?

And also, this offensive explosion is actually feeding our DEFENSE.

Techs offense will be talented next year. We need a legit D coach…. If we can keep people under 30 points a game we would easily win 10 games

Let’s get some facts straight about “GT” Joe

He admits he doesn’t go to Tech games.

He admits he openly ”boos” Tech players.

He spend the season pining for the 2nd string QB. Wow, even a UGA fan with half a brain cell knows this trick. Genius stuff, that.

I have a name for guys like “GT” Joe, and it ain’t “Tech fan.”

I don’t know if the D is getting better or just more fired up. Either way, it’s looking good right now.

JOE………..VAD still doesn’t make the PITCH GREAT yet…..Yes he brings a JOE HAMILTON passing option that TW doesn’t do but the Pitch is a HUGE part of our game…

Freshmen are erratic.
Chris Bolden looked All World in the first half last night and had Gregory pulled him out for the rest of the game, some would have claimed he would have scored 30.
But then he couldn’t buy a basket in the second half.
Got one on a lucky bounce and then another on a drive late.
He could be streaky player but very good-looking shot when it falls.
