Are They Good Again? (The Revival of Georgia Tech Football)
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 23 дек 2023
- Georgia Tech Football has not been good for a while, especially since Paul Johnson decided to retire and the program moved away from the triple option offense to more of a modern offense. They had some special seasons even making it to and winning the Orange Bowl in 2014 and a 9-4 record in 2016, but those were the last flashes of success the Yellow Jackets had and both came under Brown’s tenure. That was until this season when Brent Key found a way to lead Georgia Tech back to a bowl game. This is the story of the revival of Georgia Tech football.

-A Random UCF Fan
@@UCFFAN407 yall have a bright future in P5 man. Just fire gus first
@@UCFFAN407 Just remember that some team is definitely worse off. Cough cough - random Florida fan
@@Gators7557 you are the only florida fan to be able to admit that, i genuinely respect that!
As a UGA fan it’s good to see tech on the rise to make the rivalry fun to watch on either sides. No one likes a blow out and honestly watching the game this year was really fun with knowing how the yellow jackets are on the rise. Not to mention their l beautiful new uniforms
Us tech fans absolutely love Brett Key! We’ve got a bright future with him!
Really cool to see fans coming back, that was a dark few years ago
The foundation has been laid this season that will lead to great success in the upcoming years… Go Jackets!! #THWG
If we get the defense figured out, this is a 9-10 win program
I am a UGA fan. I love Paul Johnson, but I think the tripple option set Tech back fifteen years. The assumption was Tech needed a gimmick offense to compete. This was a formula for episodic success with limited potential. Then, enter Collins. Well, he was correct in wanting to build the brand. His methods were crindge worthy. Brent Key is using old school toughness with no apologies for the academic challenges. Nothing builds a brand quicker than winning!
Great comment! And as a Tech fan, I think we got "out Kirby" with Key :)
learn how to spell triple and cringe...go back to school.
Hope So, college football is better when Ga Tech is successful ! i am man of a certain age when tech was member of the SEC ! we (father & myself & others) hated when Tech left the SEC
BUT understood why at the time !
BUT would be better "if: tech was Back in SEC, for you younger fans, just listen or read the Alabama for football fight song ! look back to glory days of the 40`s, 50`s & early to mid 60`s !
GT will see a playoff under Key. What many don't know is that money is now flooding in to the NIL program. Any goal the NIL has asked to reach GT donors have almost doubled it every time. GT also now has a HUGE backing from the school president. This has not happened in over 20 years where academics were priorities 1, 2 and 3. Now it goes Academics 1, Football 2, Basketball 3, and all other issues after. There is talk of the president pushing harder than ever before for the GOR to allow GT to expand it's academic programs to allow more degrees. ONLY issue it the GOR is made up of uga alumni/fans and is lobbied against. Yes GT has been DENIED the right to expand its coursework to allow different degrees, in fear it will hurt the school up 85.
They landed a top 35 class for the class of '24, and are in on SEVERAL top 100 players in the country next year. Jontae Gilbert and Joshua Petty being 2 that are main targets for GT. This does not include Antwan Hill who is visiting this week with his whole family to see if it's a solid fit (commitment could be coming). As long as GT wins 6+ regular season games next year, they will likely land a top 25 class. If they do what some suspect and win 8+ they likely land a top 15 class.
GT is on the verge of being back. The 2024 season is going to be a pivot point for the program. It is the 6th hardest schedule in the country as of today. If they can muster up 8 wins and a bowl win you might see the sleeping giant wake up in a BIG way.
Smh they just ran all over UCF
Yeah our run defense was ass all season, idk how we held Oklahoma state to
@@UCFFAN407yeah, some of our guys were out for blood because they were apart of the team that was in collins last game, yall aren’t bad but we had the edge. It was a fun game.
@@Bradydubalruns fun for you!
GOOOO JACKETS!!!!!!!🏈🐝🏈🐝🏈🐝🏈🐝🏈🐝🏈
anyone who gets an Aggie QB has a chance to be good
Make a video on Northwestern college football. In the last 4 years, they have been to the national championship 3 times, and won it once. They have been dominant at the naia level for the last few years.
What does that have to do with GaTech😀
@@Jermeister12where else am I supposed to comment
Lord hope we are good again
Give Haynes King a Big Ole Thank You...
They just need a better defensive line. If they do that watchout. They could be a darkhorse playoff team in a few years with 12 team playoff coming. Their run game and offensive line is legit. Plus they got a legit QB and good WRs. Tech next year is a 8-10 win team
JACKETS are BACK!
Bro forgot to say Wake Forest when he was doing the recap of the season😅
They have been better ever since CGC left. If GT Football becomes somewhat relevant again remains to be seen. Either way, the games are much more enjoyable to watch now!
I love Brent Key. However, Tech’s schedule this year is insanely difficult, beginning with Florida State, including ranked Norte Dame and NC State and Louisville, and ending with Georgia. Five ranked teams. They will be lucky to go 5-7. If they get some real breaks, maybe 6-6. If they are outstanding and get some breaks 7-5 at best. A second consecutive bowl year is not a given.
And Miami and UNC are expected to be ranked at the start of the season so potentially 7 ranked teams. That’s second most ranked teams on a schedule this year tied with Arkansas, only behind Florida.

The deficit was not 17 zero it was 14 three
It was 17-3 deficit. We had 27 unanswered points
JACKET RACKET !!!!!!!!
Sorry I apologize.
You're wrong GaTech still runs TRIPLE OPTION PLAYS they're just different😀
Bro what😂 a designed qb run isn’t triple option, look at Haynes Kings stats throwing the ball, this is not a triple option💀
@@Bradydubalruns Sure you're so right .Who am I to argue with you😀😀
@@Jermeister12 designed qb runs isn’t triple option is the thing.
I’d say improved in a weak conference. Middle of the pack type, does not ever beat UGA. Key is average
4th in acc. One possession game vs UGA with one of the worst defenses in CFB
@@slinky5409 blasted by Bowling Green, dumb coaching call away from a Miami loss, beat by a bad BC team… just don’t see anything above mediocre. Better than Collins yes but will never win anything of substance
ACC is 6-4 against SEC this year and it was Key’s first year as a head coach. He took us to a bowl win after four straight losing seasons.
It’s clear you don’t know anything about Tech so learn before you make assumptions
@@HMurphy47 know plenty been a fan for many years, attend most games etc… I said the same about Collins and everyone was all on him. So keep my tag and respond in a few short years when he’s gone .
@@DirtysoverduerentKirby Smart went 8-5 his first year coaching uga with only one ranked win and a loss to Vandy. This is also coming off a 10-3 season vs a 5-7 season that GT had. Basing a team’s future success off of a first time HC having a few bad games isn’t really fair imo
GT will be 9-3 at best. Their ceiling will be playing in meaningless bowls. They will never be a NC contender.
Simple answer……no they aren’t 😂
UCF fan
No they’re not good again. They’re below average. They just had an average year. Key is a good coach I do believe. The players are playing 4 quarters and seem to want to play for him. He needs players. He’s getting the most out of the players he has. That’s a good thing. But, for him to be great he needs great players. I don’t believe that’ll ever happen. But you better be ready to play them under Key. He will have his scrappy team ready. But GT is still mediocre and I believe it will be under Key as well.
We have a really talented team and we’ve got our best recruiting class in a long time coming in this year. I assume you’re making this comment as a dawg fan. Let me ask you this. Are talentless teams able to succeed in the run game against Georgia? Because that’s what Tech did. You go back and watch that game, Tech’s offensive line consistently created huge gaps in Georgia’s defense. People are going to eat their words when we win the ACC next year
@@willcook3578 funnily enough, bama used a couple plays tech used on uga as well, the QB draw from milroe was essentially the same drawn up play by tech a couple weeks before. No doubt bama been watching film from that game.
@@breakthechains5931I noticed it too. Faulkner has some great designs on qb draw plays
Crazy that he’s bringing in Tech’s highest rated recruiting class in a long time and bring back a majority of the starters. Almost like he’s bringing in good players. Only takes a couple years nowadays to develop great players. Mediocre will not be a word to describe the Jackets here soon.
lol at Bama using the same run plays as Tech. So now Saban is studying Key. Come on!!! UGA played 2 freshmen LB’s and yes they were the weakest up front than they have been in a long time. I guess that’s why UGA’s offense had almost 500 yards! I’m also guessing the 2 turnovers didn’t help Tech either? I’m also thinking the game was really never in question for UGA either. If you guys were looking for a moral victory you found one. I’m actually a Dawg fan. But actually root for tech and would love to see them good again. But I’m not delusional either. I was giving tech props but being realistic. CFB is about the NIL deal now. Tech will suck unless those rich alumni pony up some cash.
LOL, no... GT is still the same shit show...... You're welcome....
There’s an Asshole in every crowd, and when you apply that principle to those admittedly impressive large crowds at Sanford stadium- there’s not a more befitting of what you’ll find whenever you get to see whatever size group of them! Classless, and that isn’t a reference to school, but the shoe does fit
Better than what we all know is clogging up your pie hole!
