Yecch Tech

Shot:

Chaser:

The middle schoolers from Boulder came to the Flats, surrounded by virgins and white noise, and were able to run all over Tech for a good bit of the night, JuJu Lewis was awful until Colorado’s final drive, and Justice Haynes continues to be a guy we don’t mind missing in Athens.

Chaser with a Double Shot:

Lol. Nerds. They lost to Coach Amazon Prime and the Canadian Strength Sensation Coach Cotes.

I wonder if Brent is gonna cry.

  1. At one point Colorado ran the ball 15 straight times pretty much straight up the gut, and Tek couldn’t stop it.
    Them Dawgs might run for 400 yards against them. 😁

    • Tough Guy Brent was about to cry. Apparently he told the announcers he emphasized LOS play all off season and then Colorado ran straight through them like crap through a goose.

      It was two bad teams but I still laughed at how Tech lost in the most Tech way possible. Suck it, nerds!

  2. Great way to start the season! Couldn’t have happened to a more deserving bunch, fans included. I guess that package with tickets hot dogs and drinks on the cheap put people in the seats. Agree that Dawgs should run wild! Hey Brent, cry me a river! Wish you many many more!! Go Dawgs!!!

  3. Went to bed after the first drives of the second half – putrid game, awful announcing, but the result, chef’s kiss!

  4. Dear 6 lb. 8 oz Baby Jesus, I just wanna thank you for ripping the Nerds’ heart out at the last minute. Also, you gave the Deionites hope, which is just hilarious to watch play out. Thanks again, Big Guy, and I’ll see you at Bryant-Denny.

    • Concerning the trip to Tuscaloosa, to paraphrase the immortal Cal Naughton, Jr. : ‘I like to picture Jesus in a UGA jersey because it says I want to be classy, but I’m here to wreck some shit.’

  5. That was two bad teams playing last night and hard to watch, but the beautiful ending made it all worth it.
    Colorado should have beaten them soundly. They shot themselves in the foot so frequently last night, that they are probably having both of the amputated this morning.

    I really thought Tech would win just due to the heat and humidity taking it’s toll on the Buffalos. Surprise! It was Tech that looked winded and out of shape most of the game. Colorado just lined it up and ran it down their throats. BEAUTIFUL!!! They just flat out manhandled Tech on both sides of the ball.

    Wasn’t Lewis supposed to be the next wonderkid at QB? Either he is nowhere near as good as everyone thought or QB development at Colorado is that bad.
    Overall, a satisfying ending to a turd of a game.

    • We had better be happy we (DAWGS) didn’t smoke a scholly/NIL $$ on Juju. He is just plain terrible. Wayyyyyy overrated.

      • Yes Juju looked about 5’6” and 150lbs. Not sure how the all world hype got started wth him but wayyy overboard. Definitely did not miss him on our roster. Bo Hughley also started for CU so a former Dawg gets a win back home. Going in I thought CBK would have his guys play more physical, and the pregame mentioned CBK was confident of his O-line vs the CU D-line. After the first 2 CU offensive series, it was clear, the middle of the get d-line was getting pushed around.

        • this is purely a guess by me, but I suspect Juju’s advisers suggested to him that instead of playing for free in HS for his senior year, he could cash in on that sweet, sweet NIL money. We dont need no stinkin’ development, Juju is sure to be a top 5 draft choice after his 3d year in college. Why wait?

          I mean, I am sure he got really good money to jump. And maybe he stays the full 5 under the new rules and gets developed. But he looks pretty borderline now.

    • Buffs practice at altitude and 90 degree weather. The humidity in the ATL is obviously worse but they weren’t going to be winded.

  6. Techs line of scrimmage sucks! Gonna be a long year on the flats. Funny

  7. I think Lovett could whip tech’s ass.
    Mercer looked better in their opener than the nerds did against Prime.

    • imagine the quandary for UGA fans next week. It’s the quintessential meteor game.

  8. I can’t remember the last time I saw both teams play so sloppy in an opener. I think we’re seeing the effects of so many players coming from the transfer portal that have no chemistry playing together. While you can bring in a player or two and plug them in with success, the massive numbers of transfers that we’re seeing start for so many teams looks to be a negative when they have no loyalty to the schools beyond a paycheck and don’t care about the player lining up next to them. Also, does anyone else get tired of the announcers always telling you where the players transferred from as if it’s something that you actually care about?

    • Well, I sort of like hearing where the players are from. Usually the names sound familiar and I wonder from where.

      But yeah, a sign of the times for sure.

  9. Oh that was a most delicious appetizer course for the season! Foie gras rolled in Belugan caviar. How awesome to see Goldberg dressed in CU attire and in their section cheering. I don’t know of any affiliation he has with CU, just a beautiful piece of trolling. LOL nerds and the locals here who are now expecting a great season. So cute.

    • Yeah, Goldberg was the chef’s kiss. Great job of trolling. The announcers didn’t seem to put that together.

    • Goldberg and Deion got to be buddies when they were on the Falcons. They’d have wrestling matches in the locker room and Deion always promoted and bet on Goldberg. Easy money for Prime!

    • I wish I still had my 1991 Colorado National Champs hat and t-shirt combo.

      In the pre-online days, just to annoy Tech fans, I called the Colorado Bookstore to inquire about NC swag. FIgured I would get a few hats and tshirts and pass them around. A nice lady took my order, sent it by FedEx, and I shared my loot with some friends. The box also had a small catalog of Colorado gear, including NC stuff. And it advertised an 800 number. I got a lot of calls asking “Hey, I heard you know how to get Colorado NC gear. How can i get some?”

      I got a positive reaction, ordered a 2d load of stuff to pass around. The operator mentioned, clearly amused but also puzzled “I didnt realize we had so many Buffalo fans in Atlanta. We’ve been getting tons of calls and orders from there.”

      My friends found this spiteful behavior to be hilarious. I’m still proud of my resourcefulness. I am not a Deion fan, but good for him.

      • Well done, my friend! I, too, only recognize one NC from 1990, and they hail from Colorado, 5th down be damned!

    • BG’s son, Gage, is actually a LB at Colorado. But I am sure BG was happy to annoy the local Tech fans.

  10. I couldn’t stomach watching more than the first quarter of Brent & Deion but I must say I couldn’t have scripted a more satisfying ending than that. How bout them Buffs!

  11. I know I’m not alone. As soon as it was obvious the Nerds weren’t going to cover I spoke into the universe “I hope they lose”. Proof the good Lord is a Dawg.

  12. Good thing Key got that raise and extension during the offseason. Stingtalk is open again for public viewing and it’s a hilarious tickle pile of hair pulling, teeth gnashing wailing woe. I was shocked to see a visibly smaller Colorado team manhandle yech the entire game! Nice job by yech coaches to give Colorado plenty of time left and TWO timeouts during the winning drive. Mendoza was showing flashes of good vision, arm strength and mobility until he got sacked on last play of first half and came up limping. He was a statue in second half and could not move at all to avoid pressure. Overall I thought the nats did a great job of pulling defeat from the jaws of victory! 5 stars!!!!

  13. Happy to report that Stingtalk is no longer blocked, and the trending post is titled “Brent Key Needs To Go.” LOL. One poster called him Mongo and that gave me a hearty laugh.

    • is it just me, or does ol’ Coach Goose look like the football version of Uncle Fester from the Addams Family? The years have not been kind to that dude.

  14. Thought it was an enjoyable game to watch. Perfect ending to a poorly played game on Mark Richt field. Anytime GT loses is a great day for America. Chef’s kiss for heart break ending.

  15. Could a GT player not have picked up the ball and ran it for a possible score after the Colorado player threw it on the turf after the blocked punt? Even if the clock had ran out, the game wasn’t over until the ball was downed.. I remember when James Jackson did something like this and got away with it.

  16. Gosh, what an absolutely awful football game. Like two mules fighting over a turnip. Only thing worse was the commenting by Kermit the Frog in the booth. Brent Key weeps & tech still sucks!

    And then, there’s this, which may warrant its own page:

  17. Came to me this pm, after a bourbon drink. Obviously, Brent ain’t the Key!! FTMF,s!! Go Dawgs!!! Amazing, simply amazing! Part of an old joke. Go Dawgs!!

  18. I was there and there were still empty seats. Also, it was glaringly obvious that they are not used to people actually showing up to the games. Getting in was a complete cluster fuck log jam. Tech fans were making jokes that Georgia grads must be working the gates so I replied, “I thought y’all were engineers? Who designed this crap and came up with the efficiency coefficient?”

    Some lady next to me replied saying this was a big crowd to which I replied that it wasn’t that big of a crowd and she said, “well for us it is!” I answered, “I know.”

    It was great sitting on the 50 yard line in the Tech section with my Colorado buddies seeing them lose like that.

  19. I would be remiss if the new uniforms designed by Under Armor( they’re still around?) for the trade school weren’t mentioned. Overall I’d say that old gold and white have given way for something along the color palette closely related with….Waffle House to go cup.
