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.

I hate to hear that. Nothing against Sims, I just like the way Laskey fights.

Position football doesn’t matter if you can’t tackle anyone. We tried it at the end of the Miami game and it cost us the game.

At the end of the Miami game was the time to go for it on fourth down.
Not on your side of the field in the first half like we do a lot and fail.

Need at least 60 to win today and Tevin is only good for 10-17 since we aren’t playing Maryland.

@stony.
Sims fights too when he is healthy.
I suspect Laskey will get some playing time though.

Golden not Smith.
I usually like this announcer though.
Because he did the 1990 Virginia-GT game.

VAD still has to work on the pitch better….It is FLOATING out there and not on a good line for the back to catch it on the dead run.

Jacket Detective,
Wasn’t slamming Sims. Just enjoy watching Laskey too, and hadn’t seen much of him since he hurt his shoulder a couple of games back.
