    Funny to think we play Ucf next year when wins will be at a premium.
    I know teams change but I couldn’t help “scouting.”
    Ucf was getting gashed by the run so maybe we will also have some success there. how we will do vs their hurry up offense is a harder question.

    A friend had tickets and took me to the game. Our seats were on the Ga Tech side, felt like I got an IQ boost from sitting with all the nerds. :p From what I saw, they were a very classy fan base. They did a Uga sux cheer that was pretty hilarious.

    To Hell with Georgia!”

    Both my boys are at GT, we are blessed to have such an incredible school just down the road. One of the few upsides to living in Georgia.

    I’ve always had a lot of respect for Georgia Tech, it’s an excellent school. Congrats on having both of your sons there. That’s very impressive and I’m sure you’re a proud papa!

    I HATE to see that happen. Obviously, the UCF were truly bummed that they were not in the playoffs and the entire team decided to take the game off. Nothing but a bunch of walk-ons and equipment managers. Quite sad.



    Wait, what year is this?

    Have a daughter at Tech....they aren't football crazy at all. It's easy to zip over to almost any game you want (I live in North Metro Atlanta) wt the exception of gt vs UGA and then it's mostly UGA fans.

    Agreed. My son almost went to Tech. Great academic school, but mediocre in sports and campus is rather blah.

    Most of the kids are focused like a Lazer on academics and succeeding. I actually think the campus and the stadium are beautiful overlooking the Atlanta skyline. The game day experience.....not so great....the kids by and large just aren't focused on football.

    They actually were independent from ‘64 to ‘82 in between affiliations with the SEC and ACC.

    A mediocre team in a mediocre bowl. Glad our sports are top tier. We refuse to play in a mediocre bowl
