College Football: Georgia Tech Vs. Jacksonville State — Thursday, August 28, 2008
August 27, 2008
Ok guys.. I am throwing out some random thoughts here….
Tech has 75 Freshmen and Sophmores on the 110 man limit Roster and 60 of Those are on Scholarship… so that only leaves 20 Upper classmen.. as Tech is on 80 Scholarship Limit until Next year
5Dimes is the only Book I have seen with a Line on the Game. They Currently have it Georgia Tech -29.

True Freshman Jaybo Shaw will also see playing Time at QB. He is a local boy here from Flowery Branch High School and has been running Johnson’s offense since he was 5 years old.
Also…they are saying this may be Tech’s Best Defense ever… They have some experience at End, Interior and Middle Linebacker…but not much else…This unit will gel but may take some time.. Only 4 starters are back on D but they all 4 will be All ACC Most likely… They are deep but very young..Look for tons of growing pains… I will be happy with a 5 win season.
Offense is what I am worried about .. Nesbit (the starter) has played Sparingly in his time at Tech and only has around 50 Snaps I believe to his credit and only a few passes…. But he is Talented…Shaw ran this offense in High School. He is from my area and put up some great numbers at Flowery Branch High (right next to Falcons Complex), but I don’t think he is ready for Big Time Football yet……They have a lot of Talent at WR and RB but every where else they are very young and inexperienced…
Will they win Tomorrow Night..Yes… but I don’t believe they cover.. It will be 24-10 or something like that… Perrilloux will make some plays and it will be up to Techs Front to get to him. If they don’t, then the inexperience of the rest of the Field will cause Trouble.
Weather will not be a Problem… Supposed to be Clear and in the upper 60’s….The Field has been covered so it will be dry despite the 10″ of rain that has fallen over the Atlanta area the last few days
