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.

How do you confuse Orwin Smith and Zach Laskey?

I’d like to buy this play-by-play guy another beer and just let Dave Archer fly solo.

Let’s give our boys a nice golf clap, but realize this is still far from over.

Yea, lets replace the guy that has helped produce 58 points with the game manager some say on this site… Baffled…

The Big O comes through.
The appearance of a Heels’ defense was just a hallucination.

Go into a full court zone trap slow down the pace of the game. This is crazy.

How many points are we going to have to score to put the game away? Any guesses?

The key thing is that Vad didn’t fall apart after the interception, nor did he panic any trying to make plays work that ended up going nowhere. He knows no fear, and that’s why I don’t think he would suffer from the jitters starting against the mutts

I’m going back to what Georgia Stein said at halftime “28 points and still losing”

GT now has 65 pts on the board, and I don’t think there’s a single GT fan that feels real comfortable right now. Man, was I wrong about Al Groh. He has toatally screwed this D.

The triple option is so dull! I wish we ran a pro style offense so we could have 10 points so far !!!! Go Jackets! Great job by Vad!

I still think it was Hewitt’s daughters taking fake names on the internet and calling for his firing so he would get 1.7 million a year settlement plus 500K from George Washington and then they both would get Mercedes as teens.

Ball on the 7, 10 minutes to play, a hot offense. Perfect time for a clock chewer.

It might have been Hewitt’s daughters calling the plays, towards the end there.

@ W & G……we don’t seem to be able to chew the clock like we could in past years. I think we’ve got to keep pouring it on…….don’t go conservative.

@Joe Schmoe.
I’m a walkup fan.
I have more Uga friends than Tech ones since there are so many, many more Uga fans than Tech.
Tick me off enough and who knows.
I could pull an Al Groh and become Dawg Detective.
