Seems like Tech has a puzzling loss or two every year like to a Bowling Green etc.

Got to start winning those type games.

This is their first year under Key. They were a total joke under Collins.

Their turnaround has been impressive. If they still lose games like that in year 2, then yeah they deserve grief for it. But in year 1 after Collins, the fact they're bowl eligible is a feat.

Bama and Tech should schedule a home & home, it's been way too long since they've played each other.

Well we have been straight up dreadful ever since Geoff Collins got here. This season the goal was literally make a bowl and just be somewhat competent. Our team has gotten so much better as the season went on and the players have really bought in. But yes next season the bar is higher

Even under Johnson he would beat Clemson then turn around and lose to Duke or Virginia the next week

I think Key can hit the 8-4 type seasons if he can win the ones he’s supposed to.

We do in 2030 & 2031. Doubt it happens though. More realignment is coming.

I see yes, historically.

Thought you meant just the past few years under Collins.

Well we gave up the game with Clemson every year with the new acc schedule so in theory our schedule gets easier over time but next year it’s actually pretty difficult.

I personally would hate to lose the uga game but there is no denying it makes our schedule terrible so maybe we should just get rid of it

I didn't know this. I agree it probably doesn't happen though.

Nice win Yellow Jackets!

Showed toughness and grit to come back after being down early.

Great to see Haynes King rally after a rough start.

Best thing King did was get away from Jimbo

Yeah, and I’m happy for him. He’s a tough kid that you can root for. I also think that the SEC defensive backs are a tick faster and he is better suited for throwing against the ACC. And he can really carve up defenses with his legs.

And I’m happy that future A&M QBs have a fresh opportunity. I’ve bagged on Jimbo enough already…

The fact they got to a bowl with what happened prior to the season is incredible. I thought they'd be 3 or 4 wins at best.

Sigh

Troy.. comes outta the gate running it easily then decided to throw it 3 straight with a batted ball, catch for a loss and a short throw on 3rd to kill the drive
