29,362 announced attendance. That’s gotta be the lowest in 40 years.
Fireworks after the game? Cancelled. Good idea, since everybody said “öööö this” and left, but kinda funny.
The number of times a GT team has had an opportunity to take a step to the next level from their current situation and utterly failed is astonishing. Admittedly, this time we were looking to step up out of the cellar. But favored at home against the worst team in the league on Thursday night national TV? And you don’t even get off the damn bus? Embarrassing. Way to squander every single bit of goodwill built up in the last 2 games.
4 turnovers (including a pick 6). Blocked punt. Tipped FG. Missed FG by UVA. Held them to 14% on third down. When the defense plays like that, it’s almost inconceivable that you could lose the game. But damn if we didn’t almost roll another offensive shutout at home. To the worst team in the league.
The crowd, such as it was, wanted to be fired up. The pick in the end zone and the mixed XP took the crowd out of it immediately. The criminally haphazard officiating tried to get the crowd riled back up, but it didn’t stick.
Knock off the stupid Buzz skits. They’re terrible and embarrassing.
I’ve literally never seen a QB play as bad as Gibson. Not that he had a lot of help from the line or the playcalling or the receivers or the officials, but he looked lost, shell shocked, and utterly out of his depth. Against the worst team in the league. Running out of bounds on that wet fart of a final play was maybe the second worst thing I’ve ever seen on a football field. I almost felt bad for the kid as he slumped off the field to the tunnel in defeat, but it’s astonishing that this is the best backup we have, and we’ve utterly failed to prepare him for the lowest grade of ACC football possible. FSU might murder him, and U[sic]GA will actually feed him his jock strap.
This was just another Collins-type loss. Back to life, back to reality. We’re bad.
