Tech has a rare opportunity c oming up

[Gold Rush]

At least rare in terms of recent history..

Three opportunities to get a big upset over the next four games.....

NCSU - Very well-coached team. A prime example of a team that is "coached up" IMO.....I believe before our rash of injuries we would have had more talent, now its a draw. (BTW - looking at their injury report, it looks like they have had no significant injuries this year)...I believed prior to the season that we'd have the edge, but they have TONS of momentum, based on one of the easiest OOC schedules that I have ever seen. Definitely winnable, but we will need some (overdue) breaks

FSU - still has tons of talent. and still a very tough contest. Who knows how they will be mentally and physically at that point in the year

Dawgs - now have me convinced that they are for real. Survived some early scares (with a LOT of luck), but seem much improved at this point..I'd say the toughest of the remaining games - in Athens.....If they remain unbeated, they could be VERY tight,and we may be in a position like last yeasr Seattle bowl - ie nothing to lose and everything to gain..Could be interesting..

I'd be happy winning one of these three - two would be awesome (assuming we don't trip up against Duke - which could be a scarey game in and of itself).....

I'd put NCS and UGA in the same catagory, but with UGA they have the talent to back up the mo'. NCS has great mo, but Duke exposed them (Clemson is just not a very good team) as a product of their schedule. Uga also benefited from an easy schedule and some luck, but they continue to improve and are now as legit as most teams are in their position. The upcomming game with the schitso Gaters will tell a lot, but win or lose, I don't anticipate that we have a real shot at takin' 'em in Athens.
