No, the 2015–2016 Tech football team did not, by most measures, have a successful season. They provided excitement, no doubt, by losing contests in a variety of frustrating fashions.
Tech stormed back from deficits on the road against Notre Dame and Duke, served as Clemson’s personal punching bag, allowed a back-and-forth prime time contest to slip away against Virginia Tech in Frank Beamer’s final game at The Flats and dropped their final contest of the season despite a defense that surrendered a mere 13 points to rival Georgia.
Yes, with the exception of the aforementioned Tigers game and a 38-21 stomping at the hands of Miami, the Jackets managed to keep their losses close.
