Guys I can't watch due to being on I-20W heading to Mississippi. Can't find it on the radio either.

What specifically happened on ST that we gave up 14 points to these jackasses?

Blocked FG returned for TD.

Cummings trying to fall on the ball (for some reason) on Tech's 5 yard line after WCU punted.

Guys, just to keep things in perspective, this game is not in doubt. Yes, it looks bad that WCU has scored 21 points, but GT will ultimately drub this team. GT will play a lot of backups in the 2nd half. I'd say the very bottom of the barrel will be playing by the 4th quarter. The issue is no longer in doubt, so it's time to develop depth and not risk some of the 1st-stringers getting injuries.

I think the team will be much improved this year. Even though the special teams will cost us a game or two. Like what I see with passing though.

agreed on balance. d looked ok except the one drive which was all passing vs a young secondary. want to see d against a real offense.

Our defense & ST concern the öööö out of me... That and our inability to hold onto the ball.

Does Paul Johnson realize that special teams and defense are part of the game?

Tevin was 7/11 passing for 194 yards the first half. Granted, against WCar, but still Joshua didn't complete a pass against SCSt last year.

hope we can take ko and ram it in

 

[slugboy]

WE touched a punt that was rolling around deep and they recovered. Got 6 out of it

They blocked a lastsecond second FG attempt and returned for 6

Are either excusable?

I think special teams can be fixed as most of it is just bone headed plays. I think we need a full-time ST coach though.......

We have a ballgame? Really Ryan Rose? It's 42 to 21. There is no ball game.

More galling than the blocked field goal was the kicker and the holder standing there.

 

[gtnc72]

NIMO --- get away from the effin ball; block and don't get pushed backwards

EDIT: was in answer to "Are either excusable?"

 

[TheTaxJacket]

I think it's time PJ quit putting off getting a ST coach. This öööö will not cut it.

It's a good thing there are only three phases to the game. If there were four, we'd be in real trouble.

They scored 21 in the first half. If they can do that again, and keep us from scoring ...

 

[TheTaxJacket]

I can't believe we have given up 160 yards to this idiocy.

 

[optionqb]

260 yards passing. 134 yards running for GT so far. Hard to believe, huh?

We didn't block on the field goal. That's awful.

The Euclid Cummings play, unfortunately, is not excusable. Three WCU players were standing over the ball as it was just about to come to a stop. Then Cummings bursts in and tries to fall on it. He failed. Not pretty. Not smart.
