Josh Nesbitt, the quarterback of a team ranked # 116 out of a possible 120 college football teams in the 1-A FBS # 116 Passing Offense.

# 116 Passing Offense Georgia tek

# 75 Total Offense Josh Nesbitt

Played 3 years at Georgia tek and this is his 4th year and last now 2010.

36 games Josh Nesbitt has played.

4 yards per carry rushing the football.

Oh, that is just awesome.

12 Interceptions and only 13 TD thrown in 36 games he has played.

Josh Nesbitt throws one TD pass every 3 games.

For God’s sake.

44 percent of his passes are thrown for a completion.

134 completed out of 298 passes in 36 games played.

3 passes per game are actually completed by Josh Nesbitt.

My God.

72 yards passing per game.

But, don’t forget he gets 4 yards per running play.

Wow.

That is just what we do NOT need to do.

Act like we have done it before for God’s sake

All we do is LOSE

Interceptions

Fumbles

Penalties

Hot dog it during the games

Arrests

Suspensions

Celebrate during 40-point consecutively scored against us

Act like morons

And, brag how we are going to BEAT a team we’ve beat 2 times last 9 games

UGA fans are pitiful. On your own blog here about fall practice, you bash Tech. On a similar blog, about Tech’s fall practice, you bash Tech. Why? Yes, you’ve gotten the best of us for quite a few years. Still, get a life. I suppose as long as Florida owns you on the field, all you have left is to run around and talk about how you whip Tech, how you think our quarterback isn’t good, etc. I hope that you can finally beat Florida this year, because maybe then you won’t have such an inferiority complex and will leave us Tech fans alone. When Florida fans get on your case, you all run around, pointing-out history, saying that Florida football only started in the 1990s, etc. However, when it comes to Tech, you certainly don’t have a problem pointing-out your impressive run against us during most of the 2000s. Get with it folks. I love Mark Richt. I’ll wager that I saw Herschel play live in Athens more than most of you dead-beats. Still, I went to Tech, and graduated, and love college football, and would be ashamed to be a UGA contributor, based on the trash that ends up on these boards. I’ll bet most of you never even set foot in a UGA classroom. UGA is a very good school, and trust me, your idiotic comments on these boards do no justice to the school
Thanks — I’ve been wanting to say this for weeks. I suppose I’m just as bad, since I’m reading and replying to this junk.

UGA has three games on its schedule: South Carolina, Tennessee, and UF. Those are the three must win games to play for a championship. Might be able to lose one of them and still play, but it is unlikely. The East winner will likely have one or two losses so the head to head East games are paramount. Coach to win these, and the others will fall into place. A loss to Arky wouldn’t be the end of the world. So, all you “down-in-the-mouth” Dawgs don’t run around like the sky is falling if we drop one early. Quite frankly I am a little weary of hearing about Mallet and very weary of hearing about how the Gators are going to cake walk into Atlanta.

just wondering...

I understand that UF has had a lot of success in recent years and most people will give them the benefit of the doubt. But Brantley is just another first year starter in the SEC. He has proven nothing on the field. I think gator fans have been spoiled during the Tebow years and have forgotten how hard it is to win with a rookie QB so IMO all this bragging and boasting about how awesome the gators are is a bit premature.

I have drilled into my head that UGA gets absolutely the best recruits in the nation and then does nothing with them. Alas, Scouts proved me wrong.
In the last NFL draft UGA had NOT ONE in the top 100 as rated by Scouts !!!!! Tech had three and the SEC had a total of 21.
I’m beginning to really consider what Dawg fans have sometimes said which is the recruiting is lousy.

Low country dawg – you have never been to a UGA game because we show up and there are never nor ever will be more visitors at a home game. You are obviously a SC that is tired of watching your boys take a yearly beating by UGA. Looking forward to another win against SC and the ball coach throwing a visor.

12 – 2 Flordia has some good young players, but i don’t know who will be coaching them. Charlie Strong was a big lose. There is no Tebow and the draft took a big toll on the defensive side of the ball. I’m just as curious about Florida’s season as that of Georgia. No guarantees my friend.

12-2, glad to see you have enough sense to leave the Tech boards. Or, I suppose you had to go to work this afternoon, flipping burgers.

Try 3-17 against Florida, buddy. Get your facts straight — 2-7 perhaps, but let’s go back further. So once you get over your Florida complex, and maybe feel better about your program (although I will say that Richt is wonderful, why UGA fans get on his case is way beyond me), perhaps you’ll quit getting off on bashing Tech.

Get a life.

July 30th, 2010 11:51 am
“Eric Crouch, 2001: Nebraska option QB, completed 105 of 189 passes for 1,510 yards and seven touchdowns, rushed for 1,115 yards and 18 touchdowns.

Nesbitt as a junior: Passed for 1,701 and ten touchdowns, rushed for 1,106 yards and 18 touchdowns.”
…………………….
A few things to consider:
Crouch’s stats are from 12 games, Nesbitt’s are from 14
RUSHING:
Crouch averaged 92.9 yards rushing/game
Nesbitt only 74.1
Crouch averaged 5.5 yards per rush
Nesbitt only 3.7
Crouch’s longest run was for 95 yards
Nesbitt’s longest run only 39
PASSING:
Crouch averaged 125.8 yards passing/game
Nesbitt averaged 121.5…..basically the same
Crouch’s completion % was 55.6
Nesbitt’s was only 46.3
RECEIVING:
Crouch had a 63 yard reception for a TD

Nesbitt is good and plays hard.
But Crouch was just a notch better.

The undesputed leader of the east has a lot of questions to answer this year. That program is tooooo good not to be the preseason pick, but; “DON’T BET THE FARM ON IT”.

Exterminator — Tech had Alabama on the schedule, and they backed-out. I guess they’d rather play a first-year team in Georgia State (which they are). Just remember, 3-17 against Florida, buddy. Until you can get over that, you’ll have nothing to do but bash Tech, which is a fine institution, and complain about Richt, who is a fine coach. So get some perspective on things and move on.

Coach Richt does not have more wins than

ALL THESE TEAMS over the last 4 years :

Boise State
Florida
Texas
Ohio State
BYU
Southern California
Oklahoma
TCU
Cincinnati
Virginia Tech
LSU
Penn State
Utah
West Virginia
Central Michigan
Boston College
Missouri
Wisconsin

Pretty LONG LIST here of teams the last 4 years that Coach Richt does not have more wins than, and 10 wins 10 losses vs just The SEC East when the only team for us to play in The SEC East the last 4 years was Florida – all the rest all 4 years were NO DAMN GOOD.
