Georgia Tech beat Mercer on Saturday by a 44-11 count. The Yellow Jackets rode two turnovers and an opportunistic offense to a margin of victory that looked deceptively large , as opposed to how competitive the game felt. And though they had moderate statistical success in several areas, Tech looked

Remember the story of Ferdinand the Bull? He was a big burly bull who , against all expectations, had absolutely no interest in fighting. His lack of intensity and his puny competitive spirit were downright puzzling to all those who saw the situation unfold. Ring any bells, Falcons fans? The local

Well..... Saturday night showed a Tech team that played somewhat less poorly than their first effort 10 days earlier. That is a light form of progress. The result was the same--a loss--this one by a 45-24 count to the boys from east Tennessee. Tech fans left the
There are 108 stitches in a baseball. And roughly 108 words in any short comment from CJ Nitkowski. Coincidence? In Year Two of the tenure of the two main broadcasters for televised Braves' games, the verdict is unchanged : meh. The work of Brandon Gaudin and C.J. Nitkowski isn&
To the surprise of no one, the Atlanta Fakecons lost their first game of the new season, 20-13 to the host Pittsburgh Steelers.

Mediocrity is a tough place to live. But there are worse predicaments. Like hoping to get to mediocrity. Like the Atlanta Falcons. The NFL is designed to help the teams that are down. Those teams can theoretically bubble back up with the help of high draft picks, and with parity

Georgia Tech's new QB Alberto Mendoza had an unsatisfying first game to launch his time at the helm for the Yellow Jackets. The sophomore was part of a losing effort, with Tech falling 14-13 to Colorado. "I'm a winner", declared Mendoza in a
No one saw this coming. At least no one in the Georgia Tech sphere. They did not anticipate a sixty -minute amalgam of pigskin ineptitude rising to this order of magnitude. Not that they couldn't lose Game One of a fresh campaign. There were too many unknowns to
Georgia Tech and Colorado have played only once over their long histories. That game, of course, was August of 2025, with the Yellow Jackets winning 27-20. But for a series history so small and recent, the two schools have a rivalry of sorts that goes back much further. Georgia
