I don't know why CPJ gets credit for Calvin Johnson and Steven Hill. Correct me if I'm wrong, but he didn't even recruit them, right? They were CG's recruits. CPJ is not a coach who has those type or caliber of WRs wanting to be coached by him or wanting to be in this offense. So, that line of questioning seems a little off base. This is his 1st year with all the guys that he recruited. He's not "making them in a lab"(WRs)
With the misdirection and the wing in the play as well as a possible option toss or pass to the split end looks right out of Chad Morris's playbook.
Definitely the best Hokie site around.
this!
I've missed these.
The mesh doesn't look as smooth in this play, if only because the snap was low. However I think the odds are that this is a true zone-triple option play.
It might be an automatic give based on alignment though, most option plays will have such a thing (obviously GT will do a lot of this with their option runs). Number 44 looks like a linebacker, and the backside DE lined up right overtop of the Tackle. Based on this alignment, rather than letting both the DE and LB through on reads (which would force LT to make two very fast decisions in a row) they just snap-audible to an automatic give.
THAT BEING SAID
It might actually be called from the box. Beamer might not want to get that involved with the intricacies of Pistol Offense, and getting all those reads in line might take to much time in practice for his liking. Shame really. I think Tech's personnel would fit great with a true Pistol Offense.
i enjoyed reading. well done.
I might like that more than Thomas the Tank Engine
I love it when you bust writers for justifying an unfounded bias. or whatever else is going on with that.
"If Tech can’t figure out how to stop Gigantor at Virginia Tech QB position this year, it will be a LONG and frustrating game, filled with many successful 3rd down conversions by VT."
LT3 the Gigantor. I like it.
if NIU beats Iowa.
But isn't FSU's offensive line the one reason of doubt among most?
I agree - rain will be bad. I think rain benefits GT for the same reasons as listed above. Plus, I want to wear my super awesome Don Strock era orange jersey to the game, but I don't want to wear it in the rain....
the bc game was sooooo great and then it sucked sooooo bad, being drenched and freezing is cool after a big time win, but not after giving up two last minute touchdowns and an onside kick in a big time loss... I will forever dislike the falcons current qb
= a lot of missed tackles. I think rain really benefits GT, because it'll be a lot harder to shed the chop-block and redirect toward the runner. Wet football causing more fumbles is more a myth, considering they replace the football with a dry one on every down.
Rain, rain, go away, come again another day (when VT plays Clemson.)
I have one for cold weather games, like wearing an orange and maroon winter sleeping bag.
basically said the same thing...but he also said he likes FSU because "I'm a sucker for...scary good offensive and defensive lines."
If you are too scared to just walk up with airplane bottles in your pockets (preferred method of choice). Ziplock bag, the bigger the better (more airplane bottles) put the bottles in the ziplock bag let the bottles hang down around the mid-section, leave the top just above the belt. Make sure your belt is tight enough or you will end up with a bag full of bottles falling out of your pants/shorts. Especially effective for guys during the fair weather games that might not have many pockets. Been doing it since I was in college, 3 years removed and still doing it.
Currently live in Arkansas (unfortunately) gonna try the same method for a razorback game in Little Rock. They have done studies ya know, 60% effective all the time
I have a flask that fits perfectly in the back pocket of my jeans. The cap doesnt stick out or anything. The problem with the flask is it doesnt hold much booze. So if its more than just me and Mrs BCH nipping on it, it wont last through the 2nd qtr. When that is the case we have a buddy who will just shove a 750 ml down the front of his pants and will buy two large cokes. He goes in the bathroom dumps one of them and refills it with the hooch. We then have a shot and a chaser. In 09 at Maryland we were right in the front row and drank with security a few feet away the whole game doing that. We even gave booze to the twerps all around us.
My friends on the other hand have all sorts of fun objects to sneak booze in: the above mentioned binoculars, a hollowed out cell phone complete with belt clip, and a pair of flip flops with a screw off lid.
In my 5 years of being at Tech, the two most memorable games have been rain games: 2007 vs #2 BC (F@ck Matty Ice) and 2009 vs #9 Miami (31-7 drubbing of Jacory Harris).
So....bring on the rain, bring on the beer and lets play some football.
Just like Georgia Tech to hit LT3 high and low at the same time!
Because if you happen to get arrested for DIP, you'll avoid a possession charge since they don't really check your socks, just your pockets.
Plus, you can probably sneak that airplane bottle while you're sitting in the drunk tank.

This is one of my favorite college football memes.
I was implying something there
Sorry took so long, I work nights. If you would like to email me or call me to discuss in detail in private. I would be interested in any games you aren't attending or that you will be attending and have extra ticket. Always love meeting people from TKP. Thanks for the reply.
