Despite being up 20-10 right now (3Q), at this point i'll be more surprised if Georgia Tech wins. Being too conservative against a more talented team.

This is a movie we've all seen far too many times. This actually feels more like a Miami game than a Georgia game (on the field)

Tech's lead was built on doing uncharacteristic things (completing passes). And that first down toss won't help.

Vad Lee's refusal to take hits causes them troubles.

Final play of the 3rd quarter was another example of it. Lee gets the first down easy but would take a hit. Instead, he goes out of bounds and leaves a 3rd and 3.

Jesus. .third and 7 & a bomb TD psu. This may be ovverrrr. Say hello to a non BCS bowl Badgers. Horrible senior day.

Looking forward to next years qb battle because Stave cannot be the guy again. Awful today.

Good drive by Tech to eat time and score a TD. Need a stop now.

I'm not sure that secondary could cover even mediocre HS receivers, I'm honestly not.

There's just soooo little legit D1 football talent on the field for Tech, to even be this close is a near miracle afaic.

He's been fantastic today. Obviously a lot better than slower-than-Tebow release Stave. My goodness.

He has no idea ... he's a GT quarterback after all. He couldn't even start on the fucking scout team at Georgia for crying out loud, it's a fucking joke.

Nothing short of a miracle to hold 'em to three. One of only two players on the Tech roster who could ever seen a snap on Saturday in Athens actually made a play.

Amazing what an actual D1 caliber player can do.

A little tidbit here.

Tonight's Clemson v SC game will be the 10th game this year between 2 top 10 teams (at the time the game was played) have met this season.

Clemson will have played in 3 of those.

IF they hold on.

If they lose, then I'm not entirely sure.

Speaking of Bama-Auburn, down by 7 with 9 minutes to play ... and you go for 4th & 1 from your own 35? Against Alabama? Seriously?

We've secretly replaced the coaches in Auburn with Paul Johnson & Les Miles ... let's see if anyone notices.

Gator Bowl for Iowa. Unless we jump Wiscy. Or MSU. Which is probably a better chance.

Cuse scores a winning touchdown with 6 seconds left to beat BC and become bowl eligible for the 3rd time in the last 4 years. Great end to the season! I believe that puts Cuse into 3rd place in their division in their first year in the ACC, behind just Clemson and FSU. Solid for a rebuilding year.
