ONE MORE TIME…..Since 1964, the Jackets have managed just 12 wins against Georgia. Let me say that again for all of you Jacket fans out there…12 wins in 45 games. To say that Georgia has dominated this series in the past 45 seasons would be a slight understatement. During that stretch of dominance, Georgia has posted win streaks of five, six and seven (twice). Tech has won three straight once (1998-2000).

When Paul Johnson was named the coach at Georgia Tech, I just new he would win considering that he would now have a more athletic player to implement his complicated triple option offense. Now in his second year they are making a run at an ACC conference championship.

Not certain why we have all of these Dawgs fans on our blog reading about our high school offense, but glad you are here. Go to http://isportsweb.com for more articles on Georgia Tech Football and a review of the win at UVA. Go Jackets.

man, you must be ready to be back at work here in the wee hours! hope your vacation was fun, I did miss your commentary after the big UVA win. to all the dawgs, it is hilarious to see your hopes for the season resting on knocking off the the highest ranked team in the state… we were there once.. my how times have changed. keep on coming with your comments about the past, you’ll need to live off these for awhile under the new regime of CPJ. And with the rise of Alabama (and UT??) you can know brag about being the 4-5th team (at best) in your self exalted conference… MSU comes close to taking down your #1 team, and Tech took their heads off on the same field. would LOVE to see us play the SEC runner up in a BCS matchup….

bugsquacher, since you seem to be a fan of history, pray tell who owns the most recent national title?

Bring up past history all you want, but it didn’t stop your vaunted program from sh***ing the bed in an epic fashion last season. Just when you think your season couldn’t have been more disappointing, the Dawgs get slammed in the second half by a team led by sophomores and freshman running an offense they had never played in prior to that season. I’m surprised the DA didn’t file felony rape charges for what happened in Athens that day. Players that UGA’s fanbase loves to say “would never see the field at UGA” kicked your a** all over the field in the 2nd half. I have yet to figure out why UGA fans insist on calling the flexbone a “high school offense” as if it’s some kind of insult; that offense put over 400 yards of rushing on your swiss cheese defense.

Winning 7 in a row didn’t bring victory to you last year, and winning 7 out of 8 won’t guarantee you victory in November this year either. How on God’s green Earth can you possibly be so confident that you’ll win this year when you couldn’t do it AT HOME with an NFL QB and RB on your roster? Delusional much? So you go on ahead and keep telling yourself how great your team was, but you may want to fit in some prayers imploring that your defense learns how to tackle. The only thing your defense has done all year is make Jonathan Crompton look like Peyton Manning. Hope you guys have fun at the Who-Gives-A-@#%! Bowl…

I’m not going to be TOO disappointed if Tech doesn’t get a shot at the National Championship this season. The ACC hasn’t been all that stellar this year, but there are signs of things stepping up. Some of the “Ole Faithful” teams are showing signs of getting back on track and schools like NC are making strides in the right direction. After, hopefully, Tech wins out the season with a bowl victory we should expect to have garnered the appropriate attention next season! The polls haven’t given us much love this year…that’ll change if we continue our winning ways! Either way, at least we’re ticking bugsquacher off! I laugh everytime he posts! GO TECH!!!

Hey dog nation,

The problem you are having is:

1. I am NOT lying in any of my posts.
2. I DO have respect for the Georgia coaches and players individually
3. I DO NOT have respect the dog nation collectively
4. I have no beef with any other school
5. You are being forced to learn a new role and not liking it. It’s like moving from the bedroom to the outdoor dog house for the first time. Similarly, it’s like moving from a Florida Bowl in January to one in Idaho or wherever Weedwackerville is (Poland I think).
6. Georgia Tech football players and coaches do NOT fear Georgia players and coaches any more.
7. Tech Nation does not fear the dog nation anymore!
8. The koolaid isn’t working for you any more
9. georgia = Florida & Tech’s bitch.
10. You know I’m right when I say “at Georgia you strive to fit the mold/At Tech we design and build the molds”

Enjoy your anual BEAT DOWN in Jacksonville. Hope you “destroy some property tonite” or something stupid like that. Lol. I went down with my girl friend last year (otherwise I wouldn’t be caught dead) and it was the absolute most lopsided game I have ever seen in my entire life, seriously. “Total Domination” until the last few seconds of the game when they apparently let you score so the Florida Fans (only ones left in the stadium) could give YOUR team a standing ovation-PRICELESS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

The only game that matters in the GT-UGA series is the current game – history means nothing, proves nothing. All that matters is winning when these two line-up, and that’s what GT will do again this year. Losing one game in 2009, winning the ACC championship game and returning to the Orange Bowl will be a monumental turn-around for GT, proving all the pundits wrong about GT’s ability to recruit and compete at the highest level, or win using Johnson’s system. The BCS championship game comes later. Whine pups. Tech is back!

George P. – GA Tech doesn’t play Miami, just Wake Forest at home and Duke at Duke. If they win of those games, they win their division and go to the ACC Championship.

Now to my main point; People seem to forget that this is only Paul Johnson’s 2nd year on campus, and he’s still playing with about 95% of Chan Gailey’s players.Most people would have been thrilled to have just kept the bowl streak alive for a couple of years; at least until he started getting his own personnel in place that would be better suited to his offense (4-5 years down the road).

The fact that the Jackets won 9 games last year, and tied for their division, and have a chance for double-digit wins this season, along with not only winning their division but the ACC Championship and a BCS berth, well, that’s truly remarkable.

Let’s couple all of that with the fact that Paul and the boys have busted up so many streaks (beaten UGA, FSU not only for the first time in so many years, but for the first time in Tallahassee, ever, beaten Virginia since 1990, etc.), well, I think everyone would have to agree that the time line for success has been moved up, almost like an onside kick during the opening kickoff of a game. Totally unexpected and really put the team in great field position much sooner than anyone expected.

All of the UGA fans who are on this blog making all of their crazy comments will only get worse over time. Their jealousy will grow as GA Tech’s success grows and UGA begins to fade due to their program becoming stagnant. They will become more and more frustrated, and they will continue to hurl insults at the Jackets because of their blind “loyalty” to the Bulldogs. Until they admit the problems lies with their own team, that will wallow in mediocrity, and the Jackets will continue their ascent and dominance.

Cobb Dawg; Steve Spurrier started his College coaching career at GA Tech on Pepper Rodger’s staff in the late 1970’s. In fact, he was on the same staff with the late Norm Van Broklin, former Head Coach of the Falcons. He eventually went on to Duke as their Head Coach.

Cobb Dawg, Spurrier was an assistant on Peppers staff at GT. He was in consideration, though not seriously, for head coach when Curry was hired.

Let’s get the facts right about Spurrier. He was an assistant under Pepper Rodgers (who was his OC as a sophomore at UF) in 1979. When Pepper was fired, Spurrier wanted to stay but Bill Curry chose not to keep him. Spurrier went to Duke as OC, then the USFL as HC with the Bandits, then HC at Duke. Spurrier enjoyed running up the score on UK when Curry was the HC there because of Curry snubbing him at Tech. He enjoyed sticking it to UGA when he was at UF. BTW Dog fans: Don’t you have other things to worry about besides Tech?

Trey other than your offense the rest of your team sucks. Tech can’t win a game that comes down to defense like Alabama or Florida. A poor offensive performance at GT = loss. GT is not “playing the best football” right now. Your biggest asset is the crap schedule that you play. Alabama and Florida are playing the best football because they are multidimensional. They can win with offense, defense, and special teams. Tennessee would more than likely beat you.

I think that what Clemson did to Miami actually proved that if we would have been a little more rested for the trip down to Miami things would have turned out much differently! Remember we played 3 games in 12 days. Miami had 10 days to get ready for us. Our offense is clicking right now and our D looked pretty good Sat. Morgan Burnett made a hit that was phenomenal and our young Linebackers are holding their own. I think we are underrated but to be honest that is good for us. I believe a national championship is far fetched but an ACC championship and a BCS bowl in Coach Johnsons second year is a big deal. I also want to say that Josh Nesbitt is impressing me more and more each week. We have to remember that he was recruited by Chan Gailey not Johnson. So, the fact that he is running that complicated offense as well as he is just shows that he is an amazing athlete. Three 100 yd rushing games and 7 tds in those three games. WOW!! Bay Bay is a beast, Anthony Allen has been a great addition, Dwyer is having a little bit of an off year but he still has held his own. I am proud of our Jackets and cannot wait to beat UGA again this year!!

Dawgs are reacting just like everyone else has to this team, trying to find some historical excuse why they’ll loose every single week. I think PJ and the team have made it pretty clear by now that history means next to nothing to them.

That said, lets just keep it grounded people. We can talk about NC’s at the end of next season at the EARLIEST, lets just focus on each game. Last damn thing we need is to trip up against Vandy and go to the lol.com bowl.

It’s going to be funny to watch the ga fans complain about the bad calls in the fla game this week at the same time talk up the sec. Fla bama multi dimensional? ROFL. Yeah, not being able to score a td against tenn sure is multi dimensional. Idiot. Even ohio u did so 3 weeks go. The sec is a joke this year. If the system wasn’t rigged, fla would have a loss to Arky and Bama would be dropping from it’s crappy play. Yay bama beats a 4 loss tenn team and can’t score a off td. They are soooo strong! What an offense. Their red zone scoring, when they do get there 1-2 times a game is one of the worst in the country. That’s is not a pedigree for a nat champ team.

this is better than the Obama v birthers nonsense! Here’s the dope; no ACC team will EVER play in the BCS Championship game. the ACC is the MAC or Mountain West with better PR (location, location, location – East Coast) and, I suppose, better basketball. While VA Tech, and the old FSU and Miami teams could hold their own against the rest of the country; the remaining programs don’t provide much opportunity of “style points” or computer-friendly wins. GA Tech has a very good team and a very good coach; and they’re enjoying a very good season, but they still have games to play, and as MB points out; with a combined 14-16 record, they’re not leap-frogging anyone. As in years past, a 2-loss SEC or Big XII champ will play in the BCS before a 1-loss ACC Champ. It’s a weak conference. Do the math, an undefeated TCU or Boise State doesn’t even have a shot (at the tile game). UGA? Mediocre team in a very good conference, which gives them style points, but even they can’t compete year in/year out. We need a playoff.

But, this has been an outstanding year for Tech, and we need to realize that we are in the infancy of something very special. CPJ is building something, and I don’t expect the team to take any steps back as long as this man is running the show. Improvement will continue, so UGAG and the rest of the ACC are on notice.

Go Jackets!!

I think CPJ is a genius and that call to go back to Bay Bay with the same play back to back took some major cajones. It was tough to be a Tech Fan during the Chan Gailey/Reggie Ball years. So, CPJ has made the program exciting again. The way that he makes adjustments at halftime are amazing. That 10 min drive to start the second half was just brilliant. Thank you CPJ for bringing the fun back in being a Yellow Jacket fan!!!

Mark,

GT deserves some praise…but let’s keep things closer to reality. That reality being that Tech is in the ACC. The national perception (as opposed to the local dellusions) is that the ACC is an inferior football conference. There aren’t enough quality teams within the ACC to change this fact. In the past four to five seasons Va. Tech has been gifted inflated rankings because they carried the torch for the conference by default. When voters look and see that GT is atop the ACC hill, they think “The ACC must be in shambles.” Until three or four ACC teams are perennial top ten teams things will remain the way they are. “Where are FSU and Miami? What happened to Clemson and Boston College? Oh yeah, and then there is Georgia Tech.”

I am all for Tech making it to a BCS bowl against a real contender team. The results from last years Chicken Bowl still linger. It would be nice to see what Turkey Neck could muster against Florida or Texas. It would be fun to watch Turkey Neck fume and curse as reality sets in…

Clemson is peaking but is still very much a schizo team. Va which plays both BC and Clemson will have a lot to say as to who represents the Atlantic. I Believe BC has the easier (NC,Va) schedule remaining and will win out while Clemson will drop one to either FSU or Va. In which case Tech will play BC for the ACC championship. Its is unrealistic to expect Pasadena, the Fedex Orange bowl is fine for this year. The financial payout is the same as the Rose and we will find it easier to get more fans/supporters into the Orange. But lets focus on Vandy. This is the BIG game of the week.

Dawg fans, thanks for the bulletin board material but you might want to concentrate on becoming bowl eligible. Also, you can blame the refs for the LSU loss if you want but if you’d played better in the first half you would’t have had to worry about it.

The thing with the polls and BCS is that you can’t complain if you lose a game. That’s the frustrating thing being a dawg fan. We seem to drop a dumb game or two (or three) a year where it is simply a blow out and the team never gets off the bus. I will never complain about a ranking (no problems there this year) if we lose a game, no matter who you lose to. If you go undefeated and win the conference championship then you can go crazy about the injustice. Like Auburn in 2004 but the SOS does count and should be considered.

Calm down you Dawg Fans

Im a die hard GT fan, but Im not overlooing UGA. As I kept reading this article I kept wondering “is he forgetting UGA?”. Imagine if they beat Florida and win a few, UGA would be ranked again most likely. Still, GT playing in the BCS championship is unrealistic, but we should be a top ten team by now.

So UGA fans, dont worry, Tech fans are not overlooing you, why would we. On the other hand, how about giving us a little bit of respect for the season we are having, this isnt Chan Gaileys GA Tech, were not rolling over for anyone.

Tech may not get in the position of getting in the BCS but if they win out and go to the Orange Bowl and win it still has to be considered a very successful season. They would certainly end up in the top 3 at the end of the season if they did all that. Not bad for a 2nd year coach if Tech can keep it up.

If the Gators DO NOT make it to the BCS NC game, The Gator Nation will surely want Tebow’s last college game to be played “at home” in the State of Florida.

With a SEC-CG loss to Bama, a 12-1 Florida team would be a LOCK for the Orange Bowl against the ACC Champ.

Since I think Bama will be the SEC Champ,
I foresee a GT-Florida or Clemson-Florida Orange Bowl match-up.

Hey UGA(Y) fans, here’s one for ya….when you guys get THREE, count them THREE more National Championships, then come talk to us Tech fans. UGA(Y) has ONE National Championship to Tech’s FOUR (1917, 1928, 1952, and 1990). Unfortunately for UGA(Y) fans, Vince Dooley and Herschel Walker doesn’t coach and play every year for you guys like they do in your nostalgic imaginations!!
I’ve NEVER meet a UGA(Y) fan that doesn’t start of a college football season by saying something like,
“Shut, I ‘member whin Herschel ran 60 yards fur dat tuchdown aginst dem Flurda Gaturs back in 1980!! Shut, bubba, dems wus da godd ‘ole dayz to be a dawg fan.”
Every year for you PUPS is the 1980 National Championship year. You guys have a seriously hard time living in the NOW of college football. And you never can just accept a lose, you guys have to blame everybody else (ref’s, cheap shots, bad calls) on why you shouldn’t have lost.
News Flash…your not going to ALWAYS be good and dominate in every game, every year!!!

The ongoing debate over who plays the toughest schedule, or who is in the toughest conference, is nonsensical. There are so many different methods of calculation that it only leads to an endless debate. However, here are a few of the “better-known” websites that provide such information.

http://www.teamrankings.com/college-football/ranking/strength-of-schedule-by-conf … ACC ranked 1st
http://www.usatoday.com/sports/sagarin/fbc09.htm … ACC ranked 3rd (or 1st, depending on which calculation is used)
http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/polls/119 (VaTech ranked 1st, GT ranked 15, Ala ranked 27, UGA ranked 29)
http://www.zonqsports.com/ (SEC ranked 1st, ACC ranked 6th)

The point is this … the ACC is either the strongest conference in the country (doubtful) or at least among the top few (probable). In any event, almost every site shows that GT has a stronger schedule than Alabama … and EVERY site shows that our schedule is stronger than Georgia’s. So for all of those Dawg fans who want to criticize … stick with criticizing your own program. Goodness knows there are enough problems there to keep you busy for a while.

Virginia Tech safety Kam Chancellor told the Virginian-Pilot on Sunday that he was blocked below the waist at least four times during the Yellow Jackets’ 28-23 win two weeks ago. Virginia Tech coach Frank Beamer said one of those illegal and “dangerous” blocks occurred on Josh Nesbitt’s touchdown run in the fourth quarter that sealed the win.

Story continues below ↓

“That’s a joke,” Johnson said. “Put the tape on and watch. Tyler Melton cracked the free safety. He doesn’t even block him. He shields him.

“They got outschemed. So, it’s illegal to outscheme them, I guess.”

Earlier this summer, Chancellor said that he thought he had picked up some of Tech’s tendencies on film and could tell where the ball was going before the snap. ESPN singled him out after the game at Bobby Dodd Stadium on Oct. 17 and showed several instances where Chancellor didn’t know who had the ball.

“We blocked them the same way we blocked them a year ago and they weren’t complaining when they won,” Johnson said. What’s up with that Chancellor? GO JACKETS!!!!!!!!

ONE MORE TIME…..Since 1964, the Jackets have managed just 12 wins against Georgia. Let me say that again for all of you Jacket fans out there…12 wins in 45 games. To say that Georgia has dominated this series in the past 45 seasons would be a slight understatement. During that stretch of dominance, Georgia has posted win streaks of five, six and seven (twice). Tech has won three straight once (1998-2000). go dawgs

JACKSONVILLE – Don’t tell Frank W. “Sonny” Seiler that you know what it’s like to have your dog killed.

“Not till you go pick him up in the boat and take him home,” he said. When he found UGA VII on Tuesday evening, he was bobbing in the lake behind his home. A 10-foot alligator had taken his chest, neck and one leg.

Seiler had picked up UGA VII, part bulldog and part chihuahua, from the dog pound in Clarke County when she was only 12 weeks old.

“I’ve been crying since 5 o’clock yesterday,” he said Wednesday night.

Neighbors had complained about the alligator to the UGA Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission in early October. They worried about their children and their pets.

“I knew that alligator was going to eat that dog,” said Bernie Capasso, who lives across the lake from Siler. Several times, Capasso said, the alligator crawled up behind his home. And twice, he said, it snatched up a duck.

“But to take UGA VII, the pride and soul of our team, is devastating. Our team is in the cesspool already, but now to have this carcass of a mutt to cheer on the team is only going to make things worse.”

whats funny to me is in about 3-4 years ,just when uga kills tech yet again while running that high school offense, you tech fans will be calling for PJ head begging him to quit running the ball every play and asking why doesnt he throw the ball more, and why does he have to try so many trick plays that dont work anymore..haha you guys will then realise that it was chan gailys players that made that offense put up the numbers its putting up now .when pj high school offense have div 2a players running that old tired offense against the likes of UGA and other BCS teams, more times than not tech will get smashed and go through 170 pound qb like candy corn on halloween….haha but you guys shouldnt lose to jax st or william and mary like a few teams in the acc do…have fun now and enjoy the short success of pj and company. and uga fans really have nothing to be jealous about not being a tech…you guys lose way too much..

The dawgs being down is a temporary situation. You know it, I know it, the college football nation knows it.

Tech Fan, I wouldn’t call 2 Humanitarian Bowls, an Emerald Nut Bowl and a Seattle Bowl real bowl games would you? Has Tech ever made a BCS Bowl game. The closet they came was going to the Gator and Chick Fil A bowls and got they tails kicked by W. Virginia and LSU. UGA might not go to a bowl this year, and if they do it might be the Music City or Liberty, but I will take the 3 Sugar Bowls, 2 Capital One Bowls, 2 Outback Bowls any day over the Silcon Valley Classic. Oh, and the last time UGA went to the Musica City Bowl, 2001, the next year, SEC Champs a Sugar Bowl win over that once proud FSU team and a #3 National ranking.

UGA fans love to live in the past but dont see the future ahead of them. I keep reading stories about how UGA football players keep getting arrested for dumb violations. I believe the jackets have a opportunity to prove themselves and as the running story has been this year GT has been defying history ever since they beat them DAWGs in Athens last year. I dont really care what happened in the last 8 years but as of right now UGA is weak in comparison to the ‘mighty’ SEC conference. The SEC conference cant even keep a time clock running throughout all of the games and the refs are so bias that they already know who is gonna win before the game starts. Either it is the beginning of the end for UGA or the end of the GT trash talking from the UGAy fans.

THWG!!

The guy that talks about Tech winning 12 times in 45 games. Its all about today. Just like your boss “What have you done for me lately?” People dont remember the past, just the presnt and what will happen in the future. Go Jackets!!

The history of the teams has nothing to with Tech going to a BCS Bowl while UGA ends up in the Toilet Bowl. But if we’re talking about history:

UGA has 2 National Championships, TECH HAS 4!!

I love these comments from UGA fans….especially about “someone has to keep the press honest”. Are you kidding me? UGA gets more press in this state than anyone. Why??? Most of the “Journalists” in the state majored in “Journalism” at UGA. *DING*! Whatever. At any rate…I think most Jacket fans would agree that GT will not be playing in the NC this year. For GT to climb the ladder to the Orange Bowl would simply be a phenomenal year! Why does the AJC (Based in Atlanta I might add..right next door to GT)…feel it is necessary to write a column that basically says…GOOD JOB TECH…but not quite good enough.

Quotes:
‘The good news: Georgia Tech should — not could, should — play in the Orange Bowl as the ACC champion. The less-good news: Georgia Tech cannot reasonably aspire to anything better than the Orange Bowl’

‘The ACC has lost cachet by the carload these past few seasons’

‘For all its splendid work, Tech isn’t yet in the top 10.’

Ah…but now we get to it!…..
‘Were Tech still in the SEC with its one loss, it would stand a fighting chance to reach Pasadena’

OF COURSE…if we were only in the SEC… what a sad mistake we made years ago to leave such a hallowed football conference. Forget that there ARE other sports like Basketball and Baseball. Oh..and ..dare I say…shhhhhh don’t tell anyone….ACADEMIC INTEGRITY.

How about an article that shows the growth of the ACC into a powerful conference? There are 3 teams in the top 25 this year. How about something about Paul Johnson’s transformational season? (Oh..wait..that goes against all the articles about his gimmick offense…). I’m just sayin’. C’mon AJC…give a little more love to the home team.

This article seemed like an olive branch soaked in gasoline

How nice black helmets and uniforms for the funeral and death of the dawg nation. Bring some coffins and shovels to the tech game.

The Jackets first team defense gave up 31 points to Vanderbilt. Even UGA’s hapless defense held them to 10. What will happen if we have to play a Florida, Alabama, Texas or USC in a Bowl game? Face it there are no teams in the ACC of that caliber. I do however, feel sure we could wipe Iowa, Ohio State or any other Big Ten team off the map. The Big Ten is a pathetic joke!!!!

Oh come on UGAy fans do you really think that your dawgs are good this year? Your ‘never had a loss in high school’ quarterback just threw 3, that’s right pull out your toes to count them, interceptions. I think Logan Gray might be your savor just like the commercial says “when it comes to Saturday football you can count on Rev. Richt and F-150″. Needless to say I have seen neither this season and as far as Hamilton smokin’ one lets keep them dawggies in check. How come a lineman is completely inept to renew his learners permit is he stupid or completely stupid. It is hilarious to here the CMR is checking licenses now to make sure he doesn’t have to bail out another player. Spare me the BS and actually man up and admit that you are all ashamed and need to get to get a job from a Tech grad. As far as Bear Bryant is concerned his team mopped the floor at your last ‘Blackout’ or do I mean your last funeral before you were prison raped in Jacksonville last night by them Gators. If this is your only outlet to make yourself feel better then I suggest all of the Georgie fans need to go see their Shrink and discuss what is really wrong: You just aren’t as good as you were last year.

Preseason #1 to #2 in the state. 45 – 42. Did you you get your Capitol One credit card with that little bulldog on it last year?

THWG!!

Dawgs,
Just wondering, but did Tim Tebow do the proper thing and serve you breakfast Sunday morning? After the wonderfully horrible things he did to you it would only seem fair.

Tech can wait until next year for the BCS title game. But what about the dogs? Another season like 2009 would be a real poke in the eye! Pun intended.

How come UGA fans brag on the past so much?? You beat Chan Gailey and Reggie Ball… C’mon now?? Everyone knows they were the demise of Tech Football for all those years. New Coach New Scheme New Players… NEW IMAGE!!!! Get over the past and look at the future and where YOU stand… Not looking too great for the Bullfrogs. On the other hand Tech… #10 in the nation… only loss to Miami on their 3rd game in 13 days on the road. Looking alot tougher than UGA this year and years to come.
