Re: Well that was $hitty.
Anyone have anything else of substance to describe this game?
An uninspired showing, riddled with penalties, of a highly young, highly banged up, extremely thin most everywhere, not in the top echelon of the conference, Georgia Tech team ....
Against a fresh, well rested, well coached, North Carolina team that is in the top echelon of the conference.
Paul Johnson has improved things alot in one year. But you're kidding yourself if you think GT is one of the top teams in the ACC. Tech is young and/or thin everywhere except the defensive line.
You can't undo 6 years of Chan-ing it up in one season. Especially when you're lacking scholarship players from probation, and the overwhelming majority of your team is Fr and So, and you have key injuries and banged up players up and down the board.
Tech will likely play in the Music City or Champs Sports. They should throttle their opponent in that game given the time to heal up. GT is another two seasons from being a legit threat to win the ACC and be a team worthy of a high ranking.
I have no idea when GT will beat UGAg, but I hope it's this season. I'm sick and fscking tired of losing to UGAg. As mentioned, GT has never lost 8 straight to the inbreeds. If GT can't take the pups this year when they're thin in the trenches, or next year when they're thin at the talent positions .... Tech may want to give up on the rivalry.
Let me know if I missed something.
