If that is considered a tough schedule, then what the heck do you call ours year after year?? In the toughest conference in college football no less. Lol

GT is pathetic

 

[TheBigOne10]

Lol Tech is painful to watch.

Defensive players have to learn that they can’t lower their heads.

He was going for the low tackle. How else is he supposed to do it? And why can offensive players lower their head and initiate contact with their helmet?

 

[jakez4ut]

That wasn't very good...

They might only win 8 in the ACC this fall.

Yep predicting DJ is benched at FSU. Miami whips them, the lose either 2 of 3 to ND, Syracuse, NC State.

 

[Dooby15]

That 4th down call.

 

[Glitch]

So on 4th and 2, on your side of the field, you line up to go for it with no timeouts. The D knows you are gonna snap the ball or take a penalty. This GT coach has been to the Brian Kelly coaching clinic for sure. Change my mind.

I’m just saying you open yourself up for it when you lower your head and don’t go very low. It’s the way football is going regardless of what people think. I never played football, but they now want you to keep your head up and tackle with your chest and arms.

Agreed. They have all but eliminated WR head shots over the middle which I think was the intent of the rule and a good thing. But now the ball carrier has to be held accountable when they choose to lower their head.

GT only returned 8 starters from a 2-9 team. That should tell you how bad Clemson really is. If they were 4th best team in the country, they would’ve beat GT like UT beat balls tate.

 

[VeeOhElEsYes]

Both these teams are terrible. Terrible football game

 

[BigSteve09]

I really am excited to see our defense when we aren't purposefully playing vanilla. We might still have a monster on the DL.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

Jeez. . . is it Saturday yet?

 

[BigSteve09]

Jeez. . . is it Saturday yet?

That's the good thing about this week, we wake up tomorrow and it's already Tuesday. Once Thursday gets here we have some football then it's the weekend. Will be here before we know it.

It appears you are correct.

1st Quarter lines are out:

Nail.

Coffin.

 

[KB5252]

Why would you make this a feature game? There were better options.

 

[TN-POSSUM]

I'd rather watch 2 Sunbelt Conference teams than 2 ACC teams play football.

 

[Enki_Amenra]

(please)

-0.5 we need to be ahead by 1 PT at the end of the first to win that bet. O/U 14 means they expect around 14pts to be scored in the 1st qtr. -175 means we are favored to be winning after the 1st qtr.

Well in a game over the weekend 2 players were both going to the ground, they hit heads and they waved it off because it was incidental. But overall these head to heads have went down significantly. It will always happen occasionally it is football. I was just pointing out they are also using judgement many times when players are falling toward same spot going down. In these cases they aren’t launching to the head area with the crown of the helmet they are simply converging toward each other while going to the ground.

That wasn't very good...

I would have a real dejected outlook on this season if I were a Tech fan lol.

Your comment gives me flashbacks to the night we lost to GA State, & I realized we were going to continue to wander in the desert for the foreseeable future. So thankful I no longer have that feeling!
