I think we show up but...

I just reviewed Duke's stats - not all of them just enough to get a sense of how good they are. Their defense is going to be a problem.

 

[jacket67]

Just score some points and beat the spread. At this point, I'm not greedy.

 

[BigDanT]

We beat them. It will be the highest point of joy this season.

 

[Yukonwreck]

I think we show up but...

If Cutcliffe can outsmart the wily CPJ, won't he handle Geoff Collins with ease?

You are a sad sad man, and you have my pity.

We're not going to win, but I do think we're going to be more competitive than we have been. I'm really just looking for 2 things this week:

1) Establishing the run game
2) Rushing the passer

 

[JudgeJudy]

We don't turn the ball over we win.

You are such a bitch.

The D has to show me more than what they did against UNC. This GT team needs strong D play to have a chance this year.

Shut down Pnope’s offense and cut up Thacker’s defense in the bowl game last season. Ded.

Man, it has come to this against Duke. During the GOL days, it'd be "just beat the shit out of Duke"

We'll talk Saturday night. I'm not sad, and I will be elated if we win. But one of the great joys of my life, Georgia Tech football, is in shambles. Beyond repair, I think.

I was quoting toy story. It was a poor attempt at a funny. I don’t doubt your sincerity and really do appreciate your perspective. I disagree about it being beyond repair and I think you’ll be pleasantly surprised in the upcoming years. I sort of agreed with you about it the first few games but I’ve seen real flashes that to me are evidence of good coaching. We will get there.

Think about this: Frank Beamer followed a coach that had 6 consecutive winning seasons at VPI. He proceeded to win no more than 3 games the next two seasons and no more than 6 games for 6 consecutive seasons. After that VPI went on a tear like they had never seen. I’m not saying it will be easy, but it might be worth it.

funny you say that. I have never witnessed you show any joy regarding Georgia Tech football.

öööö Duke.

2022 competitive, respectful maybe last half of 2021.

 

[OptionJacket]

We aren’t beating Duke. When the other teams QB has 5 seconds to scan the field he will pick us apart. I’d love to be wrong, but there are certain constants in football that can’t be overcome. Collins has one job and that’s to recruit ourselves out of this situation.

The days of giving a coach, no matter the kind of change being undertaken, that much time are long gone. If we're still .500 past the midpoint of CGC's seven-year deal, he won't be around to see the end of it.
