You know how the ESPN ticker...

[GiveEmHellJackets]

during the Thursday Night game sets out the Top 25 games and shows a little pre-game stat for each team? The one they are using for us tonight says:

"GT - 23.0 Yds/completion (leads nation)"

Ha ha! What a bonehead mistake! Everyone knows the "wishbone" offense never has any success passing the football! Next thing you know, they'll be saying we have a receiver that's in the Top 10 in the country in receiving yards! Joke's on you, ESPN!:laugher:

 

[JoltinJacket]

The jig is up. Someone fixed the joke. Now it says....

"VT - Allowed 47 rushing ypg in last 3 games"
"GT - Winless in last 17 home games vs Top-5 teams"

Did they really do that?

 

[gtfan088]

The last one I saw was GT winless against VT at home since 1990 (0-2).

 

[GiveEmHellJackets]

Yes, apparently they are rotating different ones.

VT- 18-3 with T. Taylor as starter
GT - Has not beaten VT at home since 1990 (0-2)

GT - Has not beaten VT at home since 1990 (0-2)

Wow, what a trend. We should just forfeit if we're up against that. :rolleyes:

I'm sure that will be fixed once they play their next few ACC games... Assuming we don't lose to them like we usually do. I sure hope CPJ gets UVA figured out.

Actually my wife saw that on ESPN last night as well. She came and asked me "How's UVA #2, I thought they sucked".
