An ACC road win for the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets but no extra style points

Georgia Tech Helmet

After they bolted to a quick 21 to 0 lead, the Yellow Jackets had an opportunity to put away the game with a pass completion on their own 10 yard line to a wide open Orwin Smith on the left sideline.  Unfortunately, Tevin Washington under threw a certain 90 yard TD pass and Georgia Tech had [...]

This opening ACC Coastal Division game against North Carolina at BDS was going to determine for the first time how this Yellow Jacket team was going to respond facing highly recruited athletes on both sides of the football, especially in the trenches.  The triple option was working once again and the few times that it did [...]

“Be Loud and Be Proud” is more than just a trendy phrase, it is part of a home field advantage when done correctly, at the right time, and in unison.  More importantly, it is something that all of the Tech faithful need to do at every home game for the Yellow Jacket Football Team this season in [...]

After last season’s upset loss in Lawrence, Kansas Coach Paul Johnson upheld nature’s law of lightning not striking twice by not only dismantling the Jayhawks, but for good measure setting an NCAA rushing record in the process.  So now Kansas is going to be carried into the record books of college football as the Yellow [...]

I was in Lawrence, Kansas around this time last year and unfortunately watched the game between the Yellow Jackets and the Jayhawks.  While the game started off fairly well for Georgia Tech scoring a touchdown on their initial drive to begin the game, any momentum from that first possession quickly evaporated as numerous mistakes were made and the offensive [...]

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets confound the experts by winning at MTSU

Just like the certain devastating loss and substandard performance that follows any team or player that appears on the cover of Sports Illustrated, Georgia Tech has become the shooting gallery fodder of a certain ACC correspondent who has yet to hit the bulls eye of accuracy in her football predictions as it involves the Yellow Jackets.  In fact, based [...]

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets score 63 yet gift away 14 more in their victory

The pass happy Yellow Jackets came out in their home opener against Western Carolina intent on not only improving on their 119th rated passing statistics from last season, but vaulted all the way up to # 1 after just one game by passing for 365 yards on only 11 completions.  They also ran for a measly 297 [...]

The Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets vs. the cats of the mountains

I will admit when I was watching the NCAA Basketball Tournament in 2005 and saw the University of Vermont Catamounts upset Syracuse in the first round, I didn’t have a clue what a catamount was.  Perhaps it was the unique name of yet another designer ice cream created by Vermont’s famous ice cream duo of Ben & [...]

For the 2011 Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets it’s déjà vu all over again

The old adage that you can predict the future by looking toward the past is once again in vogue with Georgia Tech football this season.  Or is it!  My recollection was back in 2008 the college football media consensus was that with the recent hiring of Coach Paul Johnson from Navy and his triple option offense, the immediate future [...]
