“We remember the Sugar Bowl, I think it my junior year of high school, we let Alabama beat us twice,” Brinson said of a team that also lost to the Crimson Tide in the SEC Championship game. “We’re not letting Alabama beat us twice. In the Sugar Bowl in 2018, they… thought they should have been in the playoffs and lost to Texas.” -- AB-H, 12/27/23

I agree. My wife kept asking me “whats the big deal”, when I’m screaming at the TV–where these holes all year—why didn’t Caleb King run this hard all year—-why did it take 12 games to come up with this combination?
UGA staff came in with a game-plan that maximized their strengths and look what happened.

I felt going in that Georgia’s only hope was to keep it on the ground and dominate the time of possession.
Tech turnovers were huge tonight, and the ground game minimized our weak point (Cox).
I don’t know why we didn’t see more of this strategy during the season. Better late than never, I guess.

And the secondary played well except for the long TD pass. You take away that 76 yard pass, Tech limited to 60 yards.
We just looked like a different team. We looked faster, harder hitting, with better blocking and special teams, etc.
The offense played great.

good thing Gomer Johnson’s new party line was “we dont emphasize the UGA game, we have more important things to prioritize.” Otherwise, he and his Mustard stained wretches would be pretty disappointed right about now. Fortunately, they can look forward to playing Clempson next week in front of about 100 people for the “Winner Probably Comes in Behind Everyone But Vandy in The SEC East Bowl.”
Nice playcalling by the Greatest Adjuster In Football History, the Genius in Cleats, The Man, The Legend, Gomer Johnson, on those last 4 Tech offensive plays. He looked like he was channeling Reggie BaLLLL. Thanks, Gomer!

Why does everyone hate Paul Johnson? I like his personality. He is my favorite GT coach since Pepper. Hope he moves on to Notre Dame though.
Did Paul Johnson err in throwing deep that last series? Seemed like he had his way rushing on the outside the 2nd half.

Objectively, drunkenly speaking…
Despite the AJC, 790 the Zone, all various fellators, and all various hangers-on, Georgia Tech is actually kinda sorta lousy. Georgia ran the ball a little bit more than usual, and two dudes ran for 350 freaking yards. Georgia gave Trek the ball back with a chance to win, and the Jackets just dropped it. It’s really, actually, kinda sorta time to just stop this rivalry; we’re leaving this decade with UGA up 8-2, and GT has done no better than 7-3 since, shoot, can’t even remember a decade. It’s over. The rivalry is done. I’m with the crew at GSB, time to put the lid on this a la Penn State/Pitt.

This team needs Prozac. The highs have been high, but the lows have been LOW! Excited to end the season like that. Very proud of these dogs for playing hard at the finish, especially Joe Cox. As bad as he was the second half of KY, he looked solid, And his numbers would have been better if not for some key drops.
Shocked at CPJ’s play calling to end the game… Definitely channeled his inner Reggie Ball on the last possession.

“Shocked at CPJ’s play calling to end the game… Definitely channeled his inner Reggie Ball on the last possession”
I don’t think he had much choice, Boz. Tech didn’t have enough time to crank out a running drive; UGA had done a good job of bottling up long runs. Johnson was probably hoping for a pass interference penalty and just didn’t get it.
LikeLike
Agreed. That’s what it looked like to me with the straight dropback throws. Considering Georgia’s penalty problems, looked to me that CPJ was hoping for a pass interference (frankly I figured we would have give him one on one of those three throws, kudos to the DBs)

I thought so, too. One time out and 46 yards to go with a running offense? It’s kind of a gamble, though perhaps he could have tried to get to the sideline. Running plays eat about 45 seconds off the clock even when hurrying.
