Let’s start here: I’m not about to sugar coat this game for you. That was awful. It was a complete and total embarrassment at home, on national television. Save a second-half drive where Georgia Tech moved the ball well and got into the end zone to prevent a shut out, that game really couldn’t have gone a whole lot worse.
You just watched a team, trying to reestablish its own relevance after a 3-9 season, go out and lay a giant egg on its own field, on a national stage, in front of a crazed crowd desperate for a concrete reason to believe this season would be different.
