In my opinion, Geoff Collins' defense looked good last night. He had been a good defensive coordinator at Mississippi State and Florida, so I wasn't surprised. I don't wish anybody any bad luck, and I believe in giving credit to people when they do a good job.
Of course, I am glad that Brent Key is our coach. Tech really has a chance for a very special season. And it was Collins who brought Brent Key to Tech and kept him here when South Carolina or somebody wanted him. So, I even thank Collins for that.
I was surprised to see the UNC coach on the sideline holding a poster with a dollar mark on it and the words "Money Down" written on it. But, they played a good game.
All in all, it was good for the ACC and Tech for UNC to Beat Minnesota. It will help us if the teams we play are considered
good when we play them.
If we play good, I will be happy. What other teams do in games that don't affect Tech doesn't matter to me.
The big thing on my mind is Georgia State. I'm sure this is a bigger game to them than FSU was to us. If we lose this game, all the good we achieved by beating FSU will be down the drain. Tech has lost too many games like this in recent years. We've got to win games we're favored in to be taken seriously. Teams in Tech's position cannot afford to take ever one quarter off.
Go Jackets!
