Specifically the kick-off and kick-off return teams... We would start almost every drive around the 10, after their Kick-offs, and OTOH, they would start around the 40 yard line after every kick-off....This is a HUGE adversity to overcome over and over again..We're not that good...Something has to be done with special teams....We know how punting has been killing us.
In addition - I thought we were flat and out-of-sync...That one months period, w/o a game resulted in our whole team being rusty and flat.
One curious thing - about this staff - is it seems that they aren't handling long breaks very well (thinking of last year's bowl) - whatever it is that we do during a long break - we need to consider doing something else.
Duke played completely out of their minds today. The moon and stars must have been aligned perfectly for them. Every "inch" went their way - plays that they make once a year happened today...It was obvious to me when Duke scored first on the second half that we wouldn't win (I had hoped for an attitude change at the half)..
That miss by Curry was really big. Had he caught that pass the score would have been tied and I believe we'd have won...Duke scored not long after that play. That really hurt. It was a sure TD, right in his hands. arrrrgggggggghhhh
Why is Tech SO bad as favorites and SO good as underdogs ?? WHy ? I swear its been this way for the 40 + years of following Tech..I just had a feeling walking to the stadium that it would be this kind of day.
I still think we'll upset UGA, but for now, I think I'll
