On a side note, what do you expect from the Bumbles this season?
I agree with the Georgia fan, as long as Paul Johnson is coach, a 7-5 / 8-4 season is not a surprise. There will be the occasional 10-2 season if the cards come up correct. The triple option is fun to watch when it works, but it places you in the category as a military school versus a school like Stanford. Yes you can recruit bigger and better players than Army, Air Force, and Navy but you are still limited on what your offense can do. Since 2000, Stanford has proved that you can consistently win and not use academics as an excuse. I wish we would utilize their model. Regardless, I still have fun cheering for our team and recognize that until Johnson has 3 or 4 losing seasons in a row, he will be our coach.

Even places like Stanford have the typical jock majors to hide players in though that aren't at Tech. Requiring everyone to take Calculus has to be a killer.
