This is a pretty good Georgia Tech team. They'd finish the season ranked if they were able to beat Kentucky, and they'd be ranked right now if they hadn't blown a 4th quarter lead and lost on a FG at 0:00 at Pitt, and Pitt is ranked #22 right now. (Their other three losses were all to ranked teams.) They're 8-4. They beat Vanderbilt 38-7. They won at #14 Virginia Tech, and the Hokies won their division in the ACC. Through the past four years, Georgia Tech beat Georgia this year, barely lost to the Bulldogs last year, beat a top 10 Georgia team in 2014 and lost to UGA in double over time in 2013. In addition to their tough running attack they have a really capable QB, though their receivers aren't so good. In Tech's last two bowl games, they beat Ole Miss, and beat a top 10 Mississippi State team by 2 TDs in the 2014 Orange Bowl. This is a tough opponent. A Gator Bowl here would be a win over a quality opponent.

If our offense performs like it did the last half of the season I like our chances...

It's all relative. O$U is second because the committee 'ranked' them there. They can't win the Big 10 and they didn't even win their own division. What the committee is doing is devaluing conference wins and making it more likely that no decent Power 5 team will schedule any OOC team that could beat them which is the opposite of what should be happening. Imagine the OOC matchups if winning your own conference really mattered. We could see blockbuster matchups in the regular season but instead we will continue to get a steady diet of Power 5 teams vs directional college.
Who wants to bet the B1G doesn't hold up its rep in the bowls - as usual?👍 1Comment

How about the Big Ten's performance in the playoff? Don't they deserve some credit? They only lost 31-0. Last year it was 38-0. At that rate they might be competitive or score by 2022 or so.👍 1Comment
