Game 64 - Virginia Tech at Georgia Tech

November 12 at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta, GA

The Ramblin' Wreck is a car that takes the Georgia Tech players onto the field before each home game.

Besides daydreaming about it running out of gas at about the 25-yard line, or having a tail light out, what I also find funny about this whole production are the tire tracks left on the field.

This is an early-fourth quarter shot:

















Anyway, the hosts jumped on top 14-0 with an early and late-first quarter touchdown, but didn't score another offensive point in a 23-21 loss. Georgia Tech lost three fumbles as well & at 3-7 with two games to play will not play in a bowl game for the first time since 1996.

Yellow Jackets coach Paul Johnson called the performance on Thursday "embarrassing".

I'll start with an important public service announcement
































And that probably wasn't the only reason there were some grumpy band members because THIS is how the game ended:

Game 10 - Tulane at Georgia Tech

September 12 at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta, GA
Fox Sports South

Tulane's defense: yikes.

No. 15 Georgia Tech rolled up 571 yards in a 65-10 win, which turned out to be Tulane's worst loss since a 63-10 thumping against Louisiana-Monroe in September, 2012.

I might use "thumping" a few more times this season.

Fox interviewed former Tech quarterback Joe Hamilton during the fourth quarter and Joseph said "he's in the fox hole with them". He wasn't going to get away with that.

Game 3 - Alcorn State at Georgia Tech

September 3 at Bobby Dodd Stadium in Atlanta, GA
ACC Network

The college football season has begun, so that means we get right to broadcaster nonsense. The kick off shouldn't be the opening to a football game; it should just be some nuntz in the booth yelling about pocket presence and there we go: game starts.

This list is going to get ridiculously long over the coming weeks, but Tom Werme & James Bates sure got us off to a nice start on opening night.

Gentleman?

"Dual threat quarterback"
"Identity crisis"
"Reps"
"Big, bad bruiser"
"He's special"
"Next level"
"Under his own power"
"Stopped stone cold"
"Maintain your gap control"
"The young man's got to hold on to the rock"
"That was a rhythm play"
"Toting the rock"
"Adversity strikes"
"Tough as nails"

And a couple Special Moments:

"Came in...hungry for some Alcorn State offensive blood"

and

"Welcome to Atlanta where the players play"
