Holy sheet! That's the longest injury list I have seen in a long time. That's 18 players if my weary eyes counted correctly or just over 20% of our 85 scholarship players. Just imagine how many more injuries we'll have once GT chop blocks us to death for 3 hours.

I thought Conner Vernon had bruised ribs. What sort of leg injury is it?

We're gonna be playing the holes with our scout team.

And folks wonder why I despise the refs (and the acc office too for that matter as they will have no/zero/nada/zilch courage to issue a statement this week AND reprimand/suspend the bastard refs for this) so much. From DBR:

"If not, the touchdown call at the end of the first half was the most lily-livered, yellow-bellied, cowardly call I have ever seen in college football. It was absolutely clear from the end-zone shot that Tech's Emery Peeples had his knee on the ground at the two-yard line. Ergo, the ball could not have been in the end zone.

The play on the field was cowardly, in that the linesman assumed that he was gonna score, saw him slide into the pylon, and called a TD. The failure to overturn in the booth was not only cowardly, but dastardly. It was a call that reeked an attitude of, "Duke's gonna lose; let's don't upset the applecart. The Georgia Tech fans will scream bloody murder; the Duke fans will just put their heads down and shuffle away."

The game announcers and the studio host (Terry Bowden) were not afraid to call it the way they saw it. It was just the impartial arbiters on the field and in the booth that failed the test."

Hear! Hear! We were robbed I tell you! We were robbed.
