Now we could do it with conventional weapons that could take years and cost millions of lives. No, I think we have to go all out. I think that this situation absolutely requires a really futile and stupid gesture be done on somebody's part.

Futile indeed!

Some facts from the Media Guide. No mention of having more wins at home.

Bobby Dodd Stadium
Originally built in 1913 by members of the student body, Georgia Tech’s Bobby Dodd Stadium at Historic Grant Field is the oldest on-campus stadium in NCAA Division I-A and easily one of the nation’s most unique settings for college football.
In the 95 autumns since then, legends from Clint Castleberry to George Morris to Joe Hamilton to Calvin Johnson have played on Grant Field, and Paul Johnson joins coaching giants such as John Heisman and Bobby Dodd in patrolling the Grant Field sideline.

Four national title teams and 15 conference champions have showcased their skills on the Flats, and Grant Field was the site of one of the most famous games ever played, Tech’s 222-0 win over Cumberland in 1916.

Today’s Bobby Dodd Stadium seats 55,000 fans in a modern, comfortable facility that embraces the tradition that has made Tech’s venerable stadium a cornerstone of college football for nearly a century.
