Any Love for the Jackets this Morning?

[RamblingWreck]

Thought I might find a week's worth of love for the Jackets at TideFans. Given the loss of four key players to academics, injury, and criminal behavior, this win is doubly huge for Chan Gailey and staff. Or, maybe Auburn was majorly over-hyped.

P.S. Please beat Tennessee!

 

[Redwood Forrest]

Oh Yeah, a lot of love for the 'Ramblin Wreck' this week! Yellow Jackets are my favorite bees! That sure gave you guys a good start on the season.

That Tech fight song has been rambling around in my head all morning. I don't know the words, but it's a happy melody.

 

[tftplisa]

Loved that game

The interceptions...the run stopping defense. I guess they needed those new tiger stripe unis....I bet it's really hard for the people's choice National Champs. Congratulations.

Ramblin' Wreck lyrics

I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer,
A helluva, helluva, helluva, helluva, hell of an engineer.
Like all the jolly good fellows, I drink my whiskey clear.
I'm a Ramblin' Wreck from Georgia Tech and a hell of an engineer.

Oh, if I had a daughter, sir, I'd dress her in White and Gold,
And put her on the campus, to cheer the brave and bold.
But if I had a son, sir, I'll tell you what he'd do.
He would yell, "To Hell with Georgia," like his daddy used to do.

Oh! I wish I had a barrel of rum and sugar three thousand pounds,
A college bell to put it in and a clapper to stir it round.
I'd drink to all good fellows who come from far and near.
I'm a ramblin', gamblin', hell of an engineer.

Tech is my new favorite ACC team. Wait a second, is that really a compliment?

Much more than much love. :biggrin2:

Great game and I actually picked GT over the Barn in the Tide Fans Pick-em contest so I was very happy to watch the GT victory.

 

[bama86]

Tech is my second team next to my beloved Tide.

We were cheering hard out here in Douglasville. Go Jackets. Make sure you kick some Free Shoes Univ this year too.

 

[bamaslaw]

As a former student/employee of the athletic dept. at tech, you have no idea how much that game made me smile. What's better is that I was watching it with my Barner friend

BAMA WINS aubard LOSS LIFE IS GOOD

 

[DiamondDust]

Let it be known that after the Alabama game last night, pretty much everyone on the Quad turned into Georgia Tech fans for the evening. :biggrin2:

 

[Dartigan]

While walking back to the car from the stadium, we had to cross the Quad. I was flipping over to the GT/AU game during commercials from the Bama post game on my walkman and I caught the GT TD. Just as I went to yell "TD TECH!!!" we heard a huge roar coming from the other side of the Quad. Apparently not everyone followed the "no generator / no satellite" tailgating rule.

 

[Vinny]

Gotta love GT!

 

[Crimson Hawk]

On a serious note, you guys need to hang on to CCG. I think he will be a good fit, when he gets his system established.

 

[Hawk324]

Yeah, I was cheering for Tech last night too! I was changing channels to the Tech game during the Bama time-outs and actually missed the TD pass by Brodie! Arrgh! (But I got to see it on replay).

Anyway I thought I heard a deafening roar coming from the crowd at Bryant-Denny when they announced that Tech was leading Awburn! Am I correct?

Heck, after those games even I felt like rolling Toomer's Corner!

:biggrin:
