RB got to the line and just cut back. Thank goodness our secondary can tackle.<br /><br />FrankBarrel of Rumhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02182361928765375469noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8455109540491757683.post-26559063432845715622010-09-07T11:42:49.047-04:002010-09-07T11:42:49.047-04:00Burnett knocked the dude 15 yards back...

Remember that guy? He would draw a bead on the kick returner, fly down the field and lay. Him. Out. I remember him taking out Clemson's returner in, what, 2005? with a deep thigh bruise by going horizontal from about ten yards out, head-on.<br /><br />Maybe it's something about being short...elwoodGTnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-8455109540491757683.post-3267912599365383432010-09-07T10:16:46.411-04:002010-09-07T10:16:46.411-04:00This was a good weekend, maybe not a great one. A...This was a good weekend, maybe not a great one. At large in the ACC, this weekend appeared to be yet another weekend where we failed to join the ranks of the elite, but as a conference, we went 10-2. <br />One of the two is considered the rare victory which will likely inspire a firing (Les Miles, you are on notice) as UNC was mere yards and a pass interference call from beating a team that was physically superior with third and fourth string talent.<br />The VT loss hurt, but they were a respectable in the loss. <br />The biggest embarrassment of the weekend was Maryland nearly choking up against a hungry Navy team. While I (and most of the other guys here) was pulling for Navy, a notorious UMD win was a check for the ACC at large.<br />Tech needs to tweak some things and work some rust out, but this is a start to a very promising season, both for us and the league at large. If we have a big weekend next week (routing interests Miami and FSU), we may finally hear the announcement of the arrival of our conference.Robespierre the Slender 1https://www.blogger.com/profile/01754968659130175662noreply@blogger.com
