MORE COW BELL
Jon Tenuta on Tashard Choice:
"There's no question in my mind the guy's one of best running backs in college
football," Georgia Tech interim coach Jon Tenuta said. "He's the cowbell. He
makes things happen. ... You can't say enough positive things about the guy the
last two years, what he's done and meant to the football team."
Did you say "more cowbell"? Darn NBC Universal for removing all traces of the SNL skit and a free plug.
H-BOWL TICKET SALES SPIKE
Evidently the Humanitarian Bowl has sold about 24,000 tickets and in a nice tradition, GT has donated about 1500 tickets to various Idaho military groups. GT has an allotment of 6k tickets.
WHAT'S THE LOOT?
Well, one of attractions of going to a bowl every year is the loot for the players. Don't kid yourself. We may complain about not player in more important bowls every year, but the fact that GT has been to what - 11 bowls in a row - that means something and it attracts recruits.
So this year our team gets the following: an XM satellite radio and a 1 year subscription, a winter coat, baseball hat, skull cap, gloves, hooded sweatshirt and a commemorative football.
Bowls are limited to $500 per player, although schools are allowed to match a certain amount as well
BOWLING AT BOWLS
Tech went head-to-head against Fresno State at bowling. The Techsters won 239-201.
SPIRITS ARE GOOD
Early reports on our team indicate spirits are high and they are having a good time. That jives with our prior experience in Boise. It also bodes well for potential gameday results, as we did not hear the same thing prior to our Nut Bowl blowout 2 years ago.
