Tech needs to win when some tough games

Tech beat up on underdogs last year when drones got his legs and Bowen learned how to call a game. We got punched in the mouth at ncsu and Louisville, and did not respond well. Our line play was outmatched on both sides of ball, and our line backers looked like they were asleep. I think the Rutgers game will tell us if we can handle tough line play. They are a disciplined team. Even though not highly ranked. Hoping that tech can learn how to win the tough ones. 8 and 4 will be a successful season ** Edited by budforpresident at 6/12/2024, 5:38:22 PM

With the cost incurred to non-fb, my expectations for fb grow

Granted UL was a road disaster but that changed road mentality at BC**

To be fair, VT still won 9 games that year, which was pretty all right**

9 in '24 prolly = a extension early in '25. (works for me)...**

Personally I think the distribution of outcomes in 2024 looks like this

Not a fair comparison of teams. Mr. Average Josh Jackson was our QB.

Hard to say on U.c.l.a. ...beyond, he can move and is bigger & fitter
bourbonstreet • 06/12/24 09:45 PM ET
1) Drones is a LOT bigger and better athlete 2) that team didn’t have

^^^this^^^ it is a skull-take. Which nobody here gets/has done.
bourbonstreet • 06/12/24 04:39 PM ET
Lots of #20-25 teams by season's end are 8-4 or so, not a huge stretch**
Synaesthesia • 06/11/24 05:53 PM ET
With relatively good health in the right spots? Yeah we can pass that
hokiepro • 06/11/24 02:12 PM ET
Cohesive units could mean a whole lot in this new CFB world
VTCALS72 • 06/11/24 03:37 PM ET
Yep; returning as many guys as we have who played together and
