And to beat a dead horse and show my paranoid homerism, these are the headlines on ESPN for our last three games, one of them sounds different I wonder why.

• Georgia Tech Runs Over Florida St., 49-44
• Nesbitt, Georgia Tech Hold On, 42-31
• Georgia Tech Runs Over North Carolina

Nesbitt, Georgia Tech Hold On, 42-31

Yeah, we sure did hold on for dear life in that one. :rolleyes:

 

[G776T]

More fun stats, only 2 teams average 10+ yards per pass attempt. guess who.

 

[JoltinJacket]

And that number is brought down by our completion pct. See if you can dig up yards per completion. I did the math the other night and Josh is averaging 23 yds/comp!

 

[G776T]

Funny you should ask, Navy second with 18.9, and VPI third with 18.3

 

[00Burdell]

I figure that win or lose, both ours and VT's yards per attempt and/or completion are going up.

Anyone else feel like we are in a different dimension, this game is most likely going to be an offensive shootout
