A couple of things of little substance to add here.
Score that last stinkin TD. I remember in a similar situation we took a knee because a TD+ extra point would have put us up by 8, giving the other team a very slim chance. This time it would have put us up by 14 with less than a minute to go. All smart *** comments aside even we can't jack that up. Plus it's Tech.
Has one team ever done 3 onside kicks in a game in major college ball? That's got to be some kind of record.
If I'm a Tech fan I'm feeling a little like we did after the UT game. Just too benevolent. It wasn't as many turnovers but they gave us some gifts.
What are the percentages that a team loses a fumble in the victory formation, while taking a knee, then the other team recovers that fumble, then goes 90+ yards in 46 seconds with no timeouts?
I've never seen it
When Jackson went down there was 1:26 left
Thats how much time Tech would have had if he would have scored.
I've seen teams score twice in 1:26
Literally the only way we had a chance of losing was to let Tech play offense again.
Tech's defense barely even moved on the knee downs.
The only thing we screwed up was that we didn't let the play clock go all the way down.
We needed to make sure Sanders went down under:40 or close enough to where the 2nd knee was the last play of the game.
We should have only had to run 1 play or at least made the 2nd play the last play of the game
If you're Tech, which one would you rather have had.....
The ball with 1:26 or OSU taking a knee with :46 seconds left
