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.

@ GT Fan……I don’t think so, because if they do it, and it doesn’t work, they know Tech will score

Looks like the ladies that make up Tech’s D all have their menstrual cycles synchronized, and it’s today.

Jacket Detective,
I COMPLETELY AGREE ON THE ASSESSMENT OF THE BBALL PROGRAM! THESE FRESHMAN WILL BE HUGE AND I BELIEVE WE HAVE A GREAT SHOT AT MAKING THE TOURNEY! HELL, I THINK WE WILL BE DANCING THIS YEAR! MAYBE I’M TOO OPTIMISTIC BUT I JUST HAVE A FEELING ABOUT THESE GUYS!

BACK TO FOOTBALL,

The two point lead might be enough to seal it at this rate. We need to go for 2 the rest of the game.

Props to UNC backs, but damn GT’s D is weak. Who is their Strength and Conditioning coach?

GT Fan and 1 4: Yes, the defense is bad. But if not for Vad, we’d be looking at 36-14 instead of 36-34.

This game feels like that Auburn-Arkansas game a few years ago, except with bad teams.

Godhigh is almost an instant clone of Roddy Jones. He’s been affective as a true freshman, he’s a great blocker, and short but quick.

Good time for an onside kick. They get the ball at the 40 on deep kicks and we can’t stop them anyway.

How about that Tech defense! Gosh what a terrible team. At least you losers won’t have to worry about your annual bowl game loss this year!
