A Look at Georgia Ahead of the Clean, Old-Fashioned Hate
Published on: 22nd November, 2009
(Georgia Tech quarterback Josh Nesbitt will be looking to go 2-0 against the Bulldogs as a starter Saturday.) No Yellow Jacket football this weekend (not that I needed to tell you), a welcome reprieve, surely, for the battered bodies on Rose Bowl Field. The weekend off gave me a chance to check ...Bad Advice, Bold Prediction and Something Else: Bye Week Edition

(Without Chan Gailey, Tech never lands Morgan Burnett. Think about that.) Ah, rivalry season. It's the greatest time of year. The Jackets will spend the first weekend of this wonderful stretch on their first real bye week (it's sort of fair to count long week after the Miami game). But a bye week ...Bowling for Respect: SEC Postseason Picture Going To Be Revealing

(Chris Todd will be one of several signal-callers looking on with great interest at the bowl selections.) It seems like, more often than not, when somebody brings up the college bowl system, the conversation quickly devolves into an argument about its flaws. The BCS is skewed (maybe), there are too many ...Georgia Tech-Clemson Just the Medicine for ACC Title Game

(Could this rematch save the ACC Championship game?) For those who haven't been paying attention or just don't care—and it would appear there are a lot of you—the ACC Championship is celebrating its fifth birthday in December. You'll pardon us if we don't have enough cake for everybody. In truth, the Conference's ...So Where Does Georgia Tech Go From Here?

(Jonathan Dwyer is headed there in a hurry.) Why, to Tampa Bay, of course. Oh, you meant in a more metaphorical sense? Well, good question. The answer, honestly, is up to them. “We’re not satisfied,” Jonathan Dwyer told Jeff Schultz of the AJC. “We won the ACC Coastal Division today, and, don’t get ...Ask and Ye Shall Receive: Jackets Give Near-Perfect Effort, Win ACC Coastal

(Paul Johnson and the Jackets have booked a trip to Tampa.) A perfect game. It has been Paul Johnson's lusted-for holy grail all season. The Jackets beat Virginia Tech, and he still found fault. They rolled up 56 points and almost 600 yards of offense at Vanderbilt, but there were flaws, he ...Bad Advice, Bold Prediction and Something Else: Week 11

(Yes, Derrick Morgan, Georgia Tech's magic number is one.) Former Indiana basketball coach Bob Knight used to explain to his teams how every game was important through a favored phrase. "You have to put yourself in position to get in position," he'd say, referring to the idea that you can't be great ...A Slightly Different Take on Georgia Tech 2009
Published on: 12th November, 2009
(Anybody out there receive a souvenir piece of these posts?) With two (or three) games left in Georgia Tech season and so far, just a "1" in the loss column, there's many an eye turning on North Avenue toward the possibility of a BCS title game. It's been well-documented the reasons why ...Perception Is Everything, and for Georgia Tech, It Ain’t Peachy
Published on: 11th November, 2009
Like a good roast, I've been letting this issue stew awhile, waiting until it was just right for consumption. But with Tech just one win away from the ACC title game and two wins away from an 11-win season, there is no longer a time like the present to bring ...College Football Week 10: Bad Advice, Bold Prediction, and Something Else
Published on: 7th November, 2009
(The Jackets' defense is excited. Why? We're into BABPSE Week 10, of course.) Call it Jersey-gate 2009. Actually, please don't. Do not, under any circumstances, even think about using that term. Anyway, for those who only have so much mental RAM and choose to occupy it with unimportant issues like the economy, getting ...Featured Sponsors
