INTOWN ROAD TRIP!

Have a good time. BDS is the oldest D-1A stadium in the country. Sort of like the Fenway Park of the NCAA.

1. 2, bravissimo, sir. (I’m assuming.)

You never went to a game during grad school? Were you like those kids that walked against the crowd to get to the library on game days?

(I kid, but come on!)

I actually think it would be worse to eat a sandwich made out of naught but human teeth. Yikes!

i can’t wait to see the youtube of this on monday…hopefully not looped on autoplay.

I agree with Tim, wasn’t there at least one visiting team you wanted to see play Tech.

Like Fenway, that’s amusing.

You could throw a rock from Bobby Dodd and hit the Georgia Dome – At least Tim Tebow could.

Tebow would have to wipe the tears from his eyes to make that throw.

Hey ya, Big Boi’s children go to school with mine. So we are like “this.”

(no word on where Andre 3000’s go)

Ga Tech is a school with a proud tradition, but they downsized their football stadium. Kind of a like a breast reduction — most schools don’t have that problem.

I heartily second the chiding Orson is due to receive in this thread on his non-attendance of football games during grad school at GT.

Now, I fully understand that our intrepid author was probably sojourning down to Gainesville on most of those weekends and that Dungeons and Dragons is the real “most popular sport” on the campus in Midtown, but come on, man. Not once?

Hell, I have no affiliation whatsoever with Northwestern, and I still hop on the L train up to Evanston every once in a while to catch a ‘Cats game, simply because it’s live college football and it’s there.

College football is like a doughnut. It may not be your favorite kind/brand of doughnut. The toppings may not be to your liking. But at the end of the day, are you really going to turn down a doughnut? I think not.

No Tech games at all? Not even GT-UGA? You wouldn’t even go to see Tech lay a whuppin’ on the Bulldaw . . .

OK, I’m sorry, I couldn’t even finish typing that sentence without laughing.

A person who writes for a popular college football blog never attending a game at a major Division 1 school the whole time he was attending?

You are as qualified as a George W. Bush appointee!

Proof Speaker, you clearly have never watched a Chantastic! game all the way through.

Of course, not many have as most succumb to the drowsiness by midway through the third quarter.

Yeah, I can’t fault someone for not going to a Tech game. Sitting in a half-full stadium and watching boring as fuck football is no way to spend a Saturday afternoon in Atlanta.

It’s debatable whether it’s worth a Thursday night. I mean, you’ll miss The Office.

Jeez, I know everyone’s a bunch of football nerds that like to trash Chan Gailey and Georgia Tech, but even a jock can agree that Jon Tenuta’s defense is often entertaining to watch.

Off the top of my head, the fun from Auburn 2003 was definitely worth my 3 hours of effort.

Looks like gameday is off to a good start…

Somebody apparently stole the jerseys of a bunch of VT starters from the locker room. VT doesn’t have spares in Atlanta, and some VT players may end up having to wear old GT jerseys instead.

Sammie: I watched the buddy dirk video about 25 times.
Sinclair (stretching) : I like the temperature here more wonder what the fish are like?
Eric Y: Just wait until they find the rooster videos.

You should have at least paid to see Calvin Johnson! No interest???

When you see 4 vt starters wearing different what looks like ga. tech jerseys don’t blame it on the soco you snuck in to the game. 4 of their players jerseys were stolen and the jackets had to lend them old jerseys

I am in my second year of grad school at FSU and I have seen a grand total of one game. Just not interested in that product.

WTF…someone used a sharpie to write Glennon’s name on the back of his jersey. Money must be short at VT.

What the hell kind of Mickey Mouse operation is this? Glennon is wearing a GT jersey with tape and his name Sharpied on the back?!?!?!?! Is Orgeron moonlighting as VT’s equipment manager? Please discuss….

Whale-shark?

Please read UTWrenn’s post at #20.

Things that Craig James doesn’t understand: whalesharks, bulldogs, catfish…

indeed craig james is a dumb ass. is it a whale or a shark? go watch the Discovery channel

i just caught a glimpse of the big boi half time show. he looked cooler than a polar bear’s toenails…..if you will.

He was ICE COLD?

Diggin that Tenuta defense!

Tech may be the first Division IA team that will finish the season with more wins than passing touchdowns. Bank on it.

Lend him some sugar, he is yo neighbor….

are you effin kidding me….. were they just talking about the teletubbies on college football?? fowler just lost his classification as a man.

did someone forget to tell GT that this is a real game, and yes, it is on national tv?

Lou Holtz: “Well if you told me you were drowning, I would not lend a hand.”

Tech looks absolutely horrible. Just chucking up balls & missing tackles. The Hokies pwn3d them tonight.

Best part of tonight’s broadcast – sometime in the 3rd (on GT’s first possession after the botched coulda-been homerun touchdown pass), James and Flutie are going at each other’s throats in a retard fight. Fowler looks at the camera, laughs and shrugs his shoulders, doing everything but saying, “Seriously, can you believe these dips?”

Wanted – #7 Georgia Tech away game jersey. No customization needed. Will provide own Sharpie.

And the final tally is…

+.5 #’s 33 and 36 for the nice Outkast references. I chuckled.

1. wrong, Tebow woulda chucked a rock over them mountains o’er there. Things woulda been different. Oh yes. You better believe things would have been different. we’d have gone pro in a heartbeat. we’d be making millions of dollars and living in a big ol’ mansion somewhere, soaking it up in a hot tub with our soulmate

And just when you think this season couldn’t get any more silly, we have names written in motherfucking sharpie. It’s 2007 and we have names written in sharpie on a jersey.

In Orson’s defense, he was in the Gator Band.

Dude has been to his share of football games.

If I went to GT grad school, I don’t know if I’d go to their football games. Maybe a Thursday game, but I’d be in Athens on Saturdays.

Chris Fowler Score card:
+1 for uttering “The 312lb Wang…” some time in the first qtr.
-1 for insinuating that Beluga Caviar comes from Beluga Whales.

Yeah, but Fowler knew all the names of the Teletubbies. -50 right there. Do not pass Go, do not collect any cocktails.

I don’t know, Doug… if you have a two-year-old in the house, you’re going to know the names of all the Teletubbies, whether you like it or not…

(Don’t know if Fowler has kids or not, though…)

I went to the game last night. I’m not a fan of either school that played, and I have to say that as far as atmosphere goes, Bobby Dodd is among the worst in America. You’re not supposed to be able to have a conversation with the person sitting next to you without raising your voice during a game, but at BD you can.

Also, what is it with this gay house music that is played before the game starts that gets all the students jumping up and down? If you’ve seen any Big East, Big Ten, or ACC game (or any game at the Swamp) you know what music I’m talking about. A college football game is not a rave, and we’re not all on ecstasy.

I officially retract my statement.

GT football is boring as hell.

I enjoyed two basketball “exhibition” games on the Big Ten Network more than that game.

I agree, the atmosphere at Bobby Dodd is pretty bad. Most of the fans leave at halftime if the team is losing or winning by at least 2 scores. For a school with a decent football history, I’d think the fans would care a little more. I know that Chan Gailey’s coaching is about as varied and exciting as vanilla pudding, but thats no reason for the fans to boo their own team at halftime or throw crap at Boston College when they’ve already lost.

I don’t want to hear a goddamn word about this being Chan’s fault.

This shit was all on the following:

Taylor Bennett – He threw 2 AWFUL balls right to VT defenders and 2 other picks that probably shouldn’t have been thrown either.

The receivers – I literally have no words to describe how pissed I am about James not getting that long ball Nesbitt threw or Greg Smith for dropping a pass that hit him in the goddamn hands.

The pass defense – hurr, they’re running the same quick-out play every single time. lets just let them keep getting 10+ yards every time they do it, k?

This debacle evolved from a total lack of focus, preparation, and, as sad as I am to say it, effort. Most of the team played their guts out, but I honestly think our problems in the passing game are the result of some of the receivers not putting 100% out there every play. James Johnson should have laid out for that ball that Nesbitt threw.

I was there last night and I was beyond the point of being angry. We looked like the 11 fucking Stooges out there and made Glennon (!!!!!!!) look like a fucking superhero. Fuck that. This fucking football team is why I’m 24 and going grey.

PaulC-

Try going to a game when it’s actually close and the fans haven’t given up on the team. It’s not bad. It’s not the swamp or Death Valley by any stretch of the imagination, but it can get pretty loud (see: end of the Maryland game last year)

Chan or no Chan, to not go just to see Calvin Johnson in person is shameful. Seeing a talent like Calvin Johnson play in person should be on any football fan’s list of important things to do regardless.

so when does Detroit play Atlanta?

#50: What part of ANY of that is not a coaches job? Focus, Preperation, playcalling?

You’re an idiot if you don’t think the mediocrity that is GT football for the last 6 years is anyone’s fault but Gaileys.

He’s an embarrassment to the program and to football in general.

Ok class lets review:
Stolen jerseys: Just pan the crowd and see who’s wearing them, should be easy to do.
In case of stolen jersey, never write your own last name in your own handwriting. Get a Phillipino or oriental, for some reason those engineering types from other countries have better pensmanship in English than Americans..or at worst case, get a Cheerleader with bubbly handwriting to do it, but that hand writing in upper and lowercase was hilarious..
it looked like an old P.E. Coach had written those names…….
