Amazing Georgia Tech Victory!
Thursday, December 4th, 2008Tech was down 16 points at the half then the offense clicked into place. What an absolutely amazing comeback victory by Georgia Tech against our rival!
Yellow Jackets.
Monday, November 27th, 2006So for the sixth year in a row, the Georgia Tech Yellow Jackets fell to U(sic)GA. Like last year, it was a close game and came down to the last minute which ended with an interception of Reggie Ball’s pass (hey, isn’t that how we lost last year?). I was pissed off all night and most of the day today. Not really just because our offensive wasn’t connecting (just like during the Notre Dame and Clemson games where we lost as well) but because HOW we lost.
I have yet to see in my life a college or NFL football game where the referees do not blow the whistle as soon as a pile is created by players after a fumble. There was a referee already there at the pile ready to pull off the players to see who recovered the ball but no one blew the whistle. Why? There was no possible way to determine whether or not the ball was still loose or not in the pile; I have never seen officials not blow the whistle when a pile is created after a fumble. Yes, it looked like the most likely team to have recovered the ball was U(sic)GA but the fact that there was a fumble and no whistle within seconds of a player pile is, to me, ridiculous. And it’s not like the SEC officials are going to admit to this mistake.
It’s okay though. In the end, we still deserved the loss because our offense wasn’t clicking – we seem to do that every few games. It’ll just mean that our offense be good to go on December 2nd, for the ACC Championship game against Wake.
