Week 7 - Picks, no pics

On the road this week, so no time to upload pictures, or really even update my record...

A few notes before we get into it.

First, per the AJC, Cooper Taylor has left the team causing much hand ringing for the Tech faithful. Always hoped Cooper would get more playing time, as he's an amazing athlete, but for some reason he was never able to stay in the two deep. Some of it was bad luck with his heart condition, but the AJC seems to suggest that the whole story isn't public knowledge. For those worried what this will do to Tech's defense, don't. The secondary is the best unit on the defense. Its deep and talented, and has played very well this year. Per CPJ, Taylor wasn't playing because other players where playing better. In any event, best of luck to Taylor in whatever he decides to do. We'll always remember the fumble in the FSU game two years ago.

Second, a quick update of GT stats half way through the year. I went a head and projected out the stats for the year and listed the ranking in the ACC to the side. Some of the numbers don't give exactly because I used my own count and compared it to CFBstats.com. A great website. Be for warned, the passing numbers are down right awful, but the running numbers are SCHWEET!
