    This. As far as I'm concerned, there is no debate between us and them. We're us and they're them. That's it. The sooner we as Tech fans get their name out of our collective mouth, the better off we'll be. Threads like this need not be started. Ever.

    I didn't read one *}#ing post this *}#ing thread. What *}#ing debate is there? Send the threads started by the wannabe (or better put, wanna come out of the closet) LSU fans to the pit.

    The angle of the DB's dangle was inversely proportionate to the heat of Henderson's beat. Simple geometry.

    Tech's first string, in most years, can hold their own with most $ec or Big12 teams for about 2.5 quarters of football. Often about midway through the third quarter, the performance of Tech's starters will begin to succumb to the accumulated affects of fatigue and minor injuries, while their opponent remains fresh by means of frequent subbing. (This is typically the point at which a one or two score contest turns into a rout.)

    I really believe that Tech's top players, in most years, play on largely the same level as any P5 school, save for perhaps the top 10 or 15 programs in a given year. The difference between Tech's talent and that of most P5s is found not amongst the best players but in the backups.
    This is 100% correct. Most of Tech's starters would be on any P5 two deep. The difference in the games and the schools is depth. evidenced by the 2009 lsu v. TECH game. Tech led 13-10 at half and lost 24-16. This was a 3-7 TECH team and an 8-2 lsu team (at the time). Tech's talent was almost equal until late 3rd quarter when their depth wore the team down.

    Maybe I could figure it out if I took some screen captures of the play from start to finish along with some graph paper, protractor, compass, slide rule, highlighters, graphing calculator, and the collective wisdom of BBB members and worked it out.

    As soon as Sokol's head turned toward Carlos, the safety saw it and knew he was in trouble and took off toward the goal line. Good recognition by him

    I agree. Good summation.
