The Best Gift Ever - From GT Alumni Association


Loved this e-mail but hate the execution. This could have been an AWESOME viral campaign, but as it stands, it's just the best E-card I've ever gotten.

A Tale of Two Halves - God's Team Won (GT vs UGA)

It might be a bit over the top but when you have a team led by Joshua, with a coach named Paul you know something has to be good right. Think about some other pieces such as Michael and Jonathan, and you know the team is heading right.

I think the final straw for me to even write about this was when it was revealed to me that Georgia Tech's mascot is in the Bible and of course, there is no "DAWG" in the Bible.

My take on the game is short and sweet. UGA got out coached. Mark Richt is the ONLY thing I like about Georgia. He seems like a great coach. However, when you go into the locker room at half time up by 16 points -- after playing one of your best halves of football EVER... you can't let the opposing team tie you in less than 5 minutes. Penalties, turnover and coaching cost the Dawgs the game.

Oh, and I think they might have had some extra blessings!

Georgia Beats Florida!

... and by Georgia, I mean Georgia Tech and by Florida, I mean FSU. If you watched any college football this weekend and if you live in the south you can't help but have seen that Georgia Got Whooped and Georgia Tech played in a thriller of a game that "looked" closer than it needed to be.

Wow! Georgia Tech can actually talk about an ACC Championship right now. If it weren't for that Chan Gailey-like loss to Virginia, we'd be out ahead a bit.

Georgia Tech Calling For White People

In an effort to excite the fans, make a statement and sell more white winter apparel, Dan Radakovich has asked the fans to wear all white for the upcoming ESPN game which is scheduled for 7:30PM on Nov. 20th.

Not exactly the exciting wardrobe change as a "blackout" but then again we're hoping for a different outcome than "that other Georgia college."

QBs & Playcalling Cost 2 Atlanta Teams Victories This Weekend

Saturday


Georgia Tech and their triple option were very frustrating to watch.  With only 8 passing attempts in an entire game you have to wonder for all the coching prowess that Johnson has, surely he's not dense enough to see the wide gaping hole in his offiense.   I'd be putting 9 in the box againt Tech too if I was on defense.  What's really sad is that at the end of the day, the Jackets lose because they can't protect the football. 

Sunday

Well, it was going to happen this year, but I wasn't sure when.  A loss can be placed squarely on Ryan's shoulders.  There's nothing good about a loss, except that the Falcons hung in there. Penalties were atrocious and for the second week in a row, I'm left scratching my head on some of the play calling.

Week 1:  A little over a minute left, 3 pass plays called, Lions get the ball back and score. 
Week 2:  1st and Goal, QB Draw?! Are you kidding me.  With Vick maybe, but this is NEVER a good call. 

Can someone explain to me why we have Ryan throwing 33 times after what Turner did last week?  Turner had 14 attempts and he's a bruiser.  Keep running him then change the speed. 

I'd almost wish the Jackets and the Falcons would swap play callers. 

On the bright side, Jonathan Babineaux played well.
