    No, but if I was going to rank them I'd probably put GT behind all of them except Utah. So maybe not the worst, but near the bottom.

    I'm not talking where teams should be ranked, but as far as the team being better. Two loss teams like USC and LSU in my opinion would destroy GT. Ohio State would probably beat them, Oklahoma even would (in my opinion).

    I think almost any of the top programs would beat GT because they are so one dimensional. Granted it's a great dimension to have if you're only going to have one.

    I think LSU has a great defense, but their offense is no-dimensional. I think it would be a lot closer than you are giving credit for.

    Well I'm assuming that Alabama and Florida are as good as I think they are when I say that. LSU played them both extremely close, probably should have beaten Alabama.

    I think the athletes on LSU would make the GT offense no dimensional as well.

    No respect for Georgia Tech at all. Ohio State was played close by Navy and i would take GT all day over them. Triple option is really dangerous and GT scores a ton of points. Only thing weak about thme is there d

    Navy negated Ohio St's Dline. I'm not sure we could contain GTech.

    When a team focuses in on it and stops it, yes you do.

    The thing about the GT offense is that it is designed to negate the disadvantage of weaker offensive recruiting and players. GT does not have great overall players on that side of the ball, but they have players that are great for their scheme.

    In my opinion any time that they face superior defensive athletes, who are prepared, they are going to lose.

    Why didn't they lose to VT then? Or Clemson? or FSU?

    I know you guys love Miami, but damn give some other teams some f'n credit sometimes.

    Or our quarterback went down so we had a freshman who had thrown 3 passes this season come in...

    I am just glad Iowa fans are nothing like Ohio State fans...

    I don't consider FSU or Clemson to have great defenses. Great athletes, but I also said they needed to be prepared. Neither of them looked very prepared.

    VT is overrated. Yes I know they beat Miami, but I still think they are a very overrated team.

    As for giving teams credit isnt that what I did to LSU :confused:
