I know you're kinda being facetious, but I really do sorta feel this way after the last few years of "dominating" the regular season with little to show for it in the postseason. CUSA bball is...

Well sure you can, Hambone. But since when is an ole fashioned Tech police threadjacking no longer appreciated round here?

Expected what title suggested. And expected that more fascinating and current tech news would have overshadow Fournette fascination by now.

Lots of Fournette this, Fournette that

I get trying to trumpet Dixon to get him the credit he deserves among the nation's elite backs. And I even get the fascination with dispelling (or fostering) the Fournette myth. But, this is a...

Called. Ticket office says they know nothing about this

Auburn was week 5, I think.

Which deserves a big high five, rounds of applause, hoops and hollers, and a hearty slap on the rump to all our defenders as they exit the field to give way to our special team D!

Actually, we'd be conceding a FG attempt, not a FG make.

Why? We had proven we could score a TD on them in first session. No reason to be unconfident. I sure wasn't. Sure the players weren't. Be ashamed if the head coach was.

Plus, any given team more...

T1, can't it be as simple as:
The defense-first team holding offense to a FG attempt in overtime -- especially 3rd OT with additional challenges -- is a successful defensive series? That really is...

I'm sure the scenarios went through many coaches/fans' minds in realtime, sans any of the convoluted stats. Made me scratch my head and raise my eyebrows in realtime when he made the decision he...

Sorry for the wall of text and hot air.
TL;DR -- 3rd overtime, concede FG attempt not another opportunity at 6 or 8... percentages in your favor. (Of course, the percentages were in our favor on...

For all the talk of mediocrity and passive game planning -- I don't agree with either assessment -- we were a McKnight td catch away from snatching that game away from a pretty salty WKU team at...

Whether Marshall, WKU, or Tech has the BETTER unit is not the point. The point is: if Marshall and WKU make a top 35 list, in what world does Tech not? They're certainly not 10 units higher than...

Butler (Marshall RB) is gone; LSU's McGee graduated. So they have no bearing on the 2015 ranking. But, I get your point, in the case of those two teams, the 2nd RB puts up significantly better...

I've been skeptical of Driskel, having watched his FL days a bit. But looking into the numbers, if the Higgins/Young combo somehow managed to throw up 2400+ passing yards, surely Driskell can surpass...

Exactly. 2 of LSU's top 3 RBs graduated -- 1000+ yards gone. Tech returns all 3 of its top RBs, and one's arguably top 15 or 20 in the nation!!

For comparison

Marshall returns 2 of their top 3 RBs. Their 2015 RB depth of Johnson/Watson/Pittman combined for 2279 yds in 2014 (313 att. 7.2 per carry).
WKU returns 2 of top 3 RBs. Their...

Looking at the stats from the last two Tech seasons (and considering Driskel's stats at FL), what's your predictions of Driskel's 2015 campaign?

Yahoo ranked all 128 NCAAF QB starters for 2015. Driskel came in at #69 -- ahead of Bama, Ole Miss, Flor, and LSU starters; but behind some questionable selections. Is #69 ranking fair, too high or...
