Georgia Tech will play in the Pop Tarts Bowl vs BYU

[FredJacket]

In a world where many players (& now teams) bail on their bowl games, my sense (correct me if I'm wrong) is these are 2 programs who will have fewer opt outs than most. Bottom line ... Should be a good matchup. Good game. & will generate "buzz" ...pun intended.

Not debating Bohannon, but even if he or any other is named our new OC (other than Weinke I mean), they aren't going to be OC'ing and calling plays 3 weeks before a game and not knowing the personnel/scheme/etc.

I thibk Bohannon knows our scheme and personnel.

Ehh, between injuries and opt outs we weren't in a great position last bowl season. I'm sure we'll have at least SOME opt outs, and the staff shake ups may affect how we do. I don't think we'll be favored, but hopefully can give them our best shot.

I live in Orlando, so I will be attending!

 

[MaconJackets]

Could be big for ratings and fan involvement

Will Weinke be our OC for this game?

The game isn't until the 27th, I think its likely we get our new OC before then (whoever that is, might be Weinke himself lol)

Win this one and the way polls are we would start next year in the Top 25

Win and we’ll probably be ranked 23rd right behind OSU, Indiana, 16 SECheat teams, Notre Dame, Clemson, FSU and Miami.

This is a correct statement and this is a good bowl for both teams. People make fun of it because of the name I have to believe if it was called the alligator bowl ND accepts. What else do they want? I am thankful for their cockiness. Do they want Miss State or Virginia? Very strange. Their loss is our gain.

Just bought my tickets! Coming from south GA, not not a far drive.

Tech is 1-3 all-time vs Brigham Young.

2002 - home win 28-19
2003 - road loss 24-13
2012 - home loss 41-17
2013 - road loss 38-20

I was sadly in attendance for that 2012 beat down

I think our D will have a major challenge stopping the Bear run game
