GaTech game is gonna be tough.

Our defense will do a good job I believe. But, our offense has had it's ups and downs lately. Georgia Tech's defense is greatly improved this year. Based on interviews yesterday Kelly Bryant still isn't 100%. That makes him susceptible to further injury, and removing him from the game. You all know what that means, the game then rests squarely on the shoulders of ZC. Not a pretty picture. We are going to have to fight and claw in this one I think to get the W.

It would be nice to see something similar

to the 2014 Champs Sports Bowl this weekend. Stoudt was prepared and he executed well because the game plan for him was perfect. Prepare Cooper and Johnson this week and continue to rest KB2.

ZC wasn't the reason we lost the Cuse game.

Shame on you for blaming one player. Cooper ran the plays called and he didn't play in on defense. Imo, the coaches blew that game while manufacturing adversity to stress players and get them ready for the post season.
Before you decide that I'm disrespecting our coaches you might try to appreciate that I agreed with the way they prepare a team for the long haul. I believe the close win against NCS and the loss to Pitt last year did our team more good than all the wins put together if you leave out the 31-0 beatdown of OSU.

Not blaming ZC totally. The Syracuse lost was more on the coaches than anybody I believe. I don't know it was really a team loss. But, when ZC is in there, the offense has absolutely no rhythm. He just doesn't look the part I guess. Just an opinion.

Agree, Paul Johnson is not (that) dumb

He's been taking a whipping from BV's defense that last few years, you KNOW he's gonna have his team prepared.
I expect to see a lot more QB option plays, where the QB will then drop back and throw over the top.
Either the cursed wheel route on one of their RB, or a TE who has snuck down the seam.
Muse has been suspect in pass coverage, can totally see his eyes getting stuck in the backfield and letting someone sneak behind him.
Point is, they're gonna score some points (expect 24-28, something in that range)
Need our offense to limit their possessions, and get a working 14-17 point margin
Our offense has been pretty stagnant vs BC (thru 3 Q), WF, and now Cuse.
But expect Dabo / Elliot / Scott are going to be more aggressive with our WR's and put pressure on GT's corners.
Need to get into the 40's point wise offensively on Saturday to put them away

Our defense is upset about the cuse game. They will come out with something to prove. I wouldn't want to be that GT offense this week. With reports of HJ and ZC taking first team snaps I think will help with the offensive rythem . Trust in our coaches. GO TIGERS

Our defense has GOT to play up to their normal potential....

instead of their lethargic play against Syracuse. If they do, we'll get enough offense to win the game.
