“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
Funny how Joshua will be the defference in the game, yet QB had nothing to do with the Dawgs’ victory last year. Did Tech have the edge at QB last year?

I think she’s a UVa grad, actually. Regardless, you would think she would have taken a look at this before sending it off and maybe noticed that she’s off-center in the camera, very poorly lit, and has the camera so far away she looks like a 10-year-old. Not to mention the echo…

Let me get this straight…the team that got steamrolled by the Dogs, then man-handled by Iowa, that returns the same QB who made Joe Cox look like Joe Montana, will be favored?
Interesting concept…maybe GT should have concentrated more on stopping the Hawkeyes’ third-string tailback…

If I had a 3rd & 10 late in the 4th quarter, I would take Aaron Murray with his supporting cast over Joshua Nesbitt with his motley crew of characters on offense. As many have said, Nesbitt had the ball in his hands with the opportunity to win the game at home last year, and he failed. Why on earth would he be the factor in 2010 in Athens? The depth of her analysis is astounding.
LikeLike
Because he beat you in Sanford one year ago. I think Murray will be a good QB when all is said and done. But it is foolish to choose a RS Freshman who hasn’t thrown a pass versus a guy that has played in a BCS bowl, has averaged 10 wins in his two seasons as a starter and already has one victory over UGA in Athens.
LikeLike
Seriously, Bill, Georgia beat Tech last year behind a QB who went 8-14 for 76 yards. You honestly don’t think Murray can do better than that?
I’m not saying Tech can’t win the game, but to boil the game down to a matchup of quarterbacks is lazy analysis at best.
LikeLike
My point was that the supporting casts for each player were faaaaar more likely to determine the outcome of the game than either of the QB’s. If you’d like you can base that on 2008 or 2009. Stafford outclassed Nesbitt by a whole freakin’ bunch, throwing for over 400 yards & 5 TD’s and still Georgia lost the game. Last year Cox handed the ball off all but 14 times and Georgia won.
And, Stafford actually won a BCS game…

So… ESPN gives this chick a webcam, and then just tells her to point it at herself and say the first thing that comes to her mind? I think the Worldwide Leader isn’t even trying anymore.
Also, hey, Heather… Georgia Tech doesn’t run the “Spread Option” offense. They run the “Triple Option”. Maybe you should pull your head out of your ass and learn about the subject you’re covering before you turn on the trusty ol’ desk-cam again.

Actually, I thought she at least sounded as though she had a reasonable command of the subject matter. I know that sounds patronizing, but it is what it is. While I may disagree with her final conclusions, she was amazingly articulate as compared to Erin Andrews who is a complete door stop who spouts platitudes, cliches or incoherent ramblings (when she takes a stab at analysis).

Actually, GoDawgs, Paul Johnson doesn’t refer to his offense as the “triple option”, as he thinks that his option as more than that. He prefers that it be referenced as either a “spread offense” or a “spread option”.
LikeLike
Of course he does, because he knows that the “triple option” is a stone age offense. It is an effective niche offense for programs that need a niche deal due to being outmanned (see Navy). However, selling this to recruits at a BCS D1 school is tough and it has more cache if you refer to it as a “spread option.”
LikeLike
people have gotten way into using the word spread to define offenses. it’s like everything that’s not i-form is called spread nowadays.
most spread offenses have pretty big gaps on the oline… tech usually doesn’t. sometimes they have a SE that’s way off the line, but that’s about as close as it gets. they just run the veer out of the flexbone 98% (rough estimate) of the time. pretty sure cavemen drew out that offense on the walls of caves.
didn’t coach richt call it the wishbone at some point and johnson got all pissy about it?
LikeLike
Oh, I’m not arguing that it is anything other than a flexbone…I’m just saying that in Dinich’s defense, she’s just covering her own rear-end in this situation. If your job were to cover the ACC and deal with their head coaches on a regular basis, would you call Paul Johnson’s offense the triple option if you knew he didn’t like that terminology? I don’t think so.

This is like my 7 year old niece picking games. I wonder if she knows that this game is played at the end of November? I’m ppprrrreeettttttyyyy sure that both defenses and offenses should be well-oiled by then so “inexperience” would be a moot point and talent/depth will prevail.

I agree with BroRogan & The Realist…by the time these two teams meet up I believe that the learning curve is going to be about flat and our boys will have a great idea of what their doing out there….if not we’re in BIG trouble! And, I would take our Aaron and our whole team any day of the week over GT’s squad….NO DOUBT!
As for Bill’s comment about what happened in ’08…that can be chalked up to Willie’s D letting’ the Bulldog Nation down. Plain and simple…there’s no excuse to get up like they did and blow that game.(Just like against UK last year) NO EXCUSE!!! That’s why the changes were made, and that’s why the players are raving about the change in mentality and philosophy….

Actually, I don’t think that one can be put on Martinez at all. Two UGA players were in perfect position to make simple plays, and whiffed for no obvious reason, and a fumble by our fumble. Complete fluke in a game we were blowing them out, nothing GT should beat their chest over. Bad execution, or lack of focus, during a 110 minute stretch that distorted the outcome. They are a pretty desperate fanbase to isolate on that while ignoring a decade of futility. Yeah this broad doesn’t get it, but girls and football are excusable, Bill and the other CFB retards are on North Avenue are problematic. As I said the other day, they worship Dodd, the guy who put a stake through their football hearts made them forever irrelevant.

I think if it were game two or three the qb experience difference would be a much bigger advantage for Gt, the reasons I am worried about Carolina and Arkansas, but being late in the season Murray will have a full season of starting and be at the end of his third year in the program. The experience difference by that point won’t mean near as much and the overall talent of the two teams will make a much bigger difference.
