We have seen better Defenses than Dukes and that is to our advantage. Duke has seen our “type” offense but not a version as fast as ours. We do need to PASS more if given the chance. If the A-Backs and B-Backs keep their spacing on the option all the way around the corner waiting for the last pitch that would be perfect. I don’t think Jaybo will play scared of getting hurt and will still risk the hits for the chance to make a good pitch on a big play. The thing I like about this offense is that it is 11 vs 11 and if everybody does their job the man with the ball has to beat the one man not blocked by any other player. My biggest question is if VOSS will be ok(100%) and stay in at center. COPX may get more playse because he can punish the Linebackers to soften them up for the quicker backs to make a big play.

You may want to point out that Duke didn’t stop Navy until they lost their QB. That is why Duke started stopping Navy. The Mids would have easily won if Kaipo hadn’t gotten hurt.

Duke is not the same Duke we’ve seen the last few years. This time they’ll be in shape, according to what I’ve read.

However, Tech will still be physically superior to Duke in the fitness area, as well as having more depth, and a much better defense than Navy.

We know what Duke did to adjust vs. Navy later in the game; we’ll be ready for that, and PJ has seen teams try so many different adjustments that he’ll be more than ready to counter-adjust.

I expect the defense to do their job, anticipate a score somewhere in the 45-17 range.

I think it will help Duke and keep them in the game, but Tech isn’t Navy either and should be able to win. As I said before, if the line is Tech by 14, Tech wins but take Duke and the points.

While it’s not the same, remember that MSU devoted IMO an inordinate amount of time practicing against the option.

Note what Ken wrote in the 6th paragraph. Our second-highest scoring quarter is the 4th. CPJ’s conditioning is really showing up there. Chan’s teams (and CGO’L’s, for that matter) tended to get gassed late in the game. That’s why we couldn’t go the distance against deep teams like FSU.

CPJ has us some decent (good, if not great, but better than previous years) depth, and great conditioning. If the game is close at Budweiser, we should be able to pull away in the final quarter, especially against a pass-happy team that isn’t as fit or deep.

Duke is in for a long afternoon. With Tech controlling the clock and their ever improving defense, Duke will find it hard to get enough points up on the scoreboard because they just won’t have the ball enough times to do enough damage. CPJ teams are fun to watch, wish they could be on a station that anybody gets around here.

By PJ

Ken:

Good topic. However, your point regarding Tech scoring more in the first quarter is skewed. In two of the first four games, Tech has won handily, getting a jump on the other team. The lack of production in the later quarters in those games can be attributed to the lack of the “number ones” being on the field, which goes against your point. Also, in the other two Tech games, i.e., against BC and VT, Tech didn’t really get rolling until after the first half, when the Tech offense got into synch and the opposing defense started to miss assignments.

Accordingly, I’m not going to worry whether Tech scores early on Duke. I don’t think it will matter at all to the inevitable outcome of Tech winning handily.

Even though we have scored more in the first quarter the biggest runs have been coming in the second half, after the other team has “adjusted”. The thing is you can not stop the triple option play plain and simple is designed to get athletes in space with more blockers then defenders on that side. Throw in the fact that you cannot cheat on the Quarterback or running back and it is just hard to stop. Especially with our horses. As pointed out Navy put up 31 points on Duke. Even if we do not run the offense as good as them our people can match that point total. Then given that Navy has no ability to defend anybody because of their size restrictions and we don’t we will seriously limit Duke’s ability to do much on offense. My realistic prediction is 30 - 17, but I can see 45 - 17 also. Duke will not score over 20 points.

thanks for the various inputs. I hadn’t realized that about Navy’s quarterback being out. I confess I didn’t look at the game stats that closely. But that obviously makes a big difference in Navy’s dropoff.

Good point, also, PJ. The Jax State game and MSU game skew the stats a bit. One could argue that perhaps the last game was perhaps the truest indication yet of what the offense can do and lends the most credence to Cutcliffe’s theory, but that’s splitting hairs.

But I don’t think I’m necesarily saying that because they get a quick start, they falter late. I am in agreement with a lot of things being said about Tech’s conditioning level and Johnson’s ability to adjust. If the VT game - and we’re talking hypothetically - had been 10 minutes longer, I think Tech would have won. (Or, for that matter, if the helmet-to-helmet penalty hadn’t been called)

D Roberts, Cutcliffe said Tech was more talented than Navy, not the other way around. The sentence was probably a little too wordy.

Ken, has there been any better understanding of Nesbitt’s injury? Are we talking about a severe pull that could hamper him the rest of the year or just a strain and Coach wants to be cautious and not push things, feeling Jaybo is certainly capable of handling things against Duke and G-W?

As for whether Duke playing Navy gives them an edge and should we be concerned, remember folks, although Duke is better than last year (obviously Cutcliffe is a decent coach who has them playing better than in years past) they are still the team that just broke a 25 game ACC losing streak against an absolutely putrid UVA. And the score was 3-3 into the 2nd half when UVA threw 4 INTs. I’m not worried at all and think we win this one handily, easily covering the 13 pt. spread, say 38-10.

And I don’t see Coach PJ letting us slip up and lose focus like Chan did in the past. I dare say we will never hear Coach utter the famous Chanism “I just didn’t have us prepared to play today.”

Listen to you people! You’d think Duke woke up and all of a sudden became Oklahoma! They are better but not even remotely close to us. Tech fans want to be positive, but deep in the back of your minds, it’s as if you are always fearing something bad will happen. This is not Chan (where that happened) - this is Paul! Lose those thoughts forever. Once we all think we will win every game and have no fears - WE will awake and become the Oklahomas and USCs of college football.

It means nothing that Tech has scored more in the 1st quarter than the 4th, because two of the games have been blowouts, with 2nd and 3rd string players in the latter part of the game.

Tech’s great catch-up to Virginia Tech came late in the game, by the way.

Good one jabster. I’ll look for two keys to the game. Will GT’s offensive lineman perform as well as they did last game to give the quarterback time to operate the offense? Will GT’s defense manage to control the damage from Duke’s passing game as well as they did against Mississippi State?

I have confidence that we can beat any team in the ACC if we do two things.

1.Protect the football 2.Pressure the QB.

Protecting the football is the single most important part of any offense but especially with this offense. I have complete confidence in our coaching staff, especially CPJ, but there isnt a play he can call that guarantees we dont lose the football.

Getting pressure on the QB changes the entire approach of the offense. I think we have one of the best front four in the country and I’m not sure Duke will be able to consistently protect their much improved QB.

I can see this game being closer than some think, but I think we’ll separate ourselves down the stretch..

If Navy ran the ball well against Duke, then Duke is in for a long afternoon against GT’s offense.

As usual, we need to protect the ball. But Jaybo did a good job of that last week, and I think he will against a Duke defense that is not as good as MSU’s. If our 3rd down and pass defense are up to par this week, this should be an easy win.

I’m more concerned about Duke’s offense than ours. We’ll get our points - “holding” Navy to 31 isn’t exactly a success story - but Tech gave up a boatload of yards in the air to Mississippi State, and Duke can throw better than the ‘Dogs. I’m hoping (and betting) that we’ve put the week off to tighten things up a bit defensively, which should lead to a Tech win by more than the 14 point spread.

By CW

October 2, 2008 1:50 PM | Link to this

We all love talking about the offense because we finally have a coach with an offensive philosophy worth discussing, but as a few other posts above have noted, this game will be determined much more by how our D line handles Duke’s QB than by how our offense performs.

Lewis is an experienced QB who has been successful passing because of his mobility. If we can contain him and pressure him our offense will have the opportunity to score plenty of points to win. If, however, Lewis can break containment and carve up our secondary with long, sustained drives, it puts much more pressure on our offense to score on every opportunity.

I like our D to match up well. Tech should roll by 2 or 3 touchdowns.

By bankerdawg

October 2, 2008 1:58 PM | Link to this

All of the Duke love this week is a little silly if you ask me. As has been mentioned above, Navy hung 31, and if their little QB doesn’t go down, they could have easily put up 45-50 points on this Duke defense.

Tech rolls in this one.

Shaw looks comfortable, and Dwyer is a stud.

The only concern I would have as a Techie is the pass defense. MSU put up 300 yards, and by all accounts, the Duke QB is far superior to him. However, I would also expect your D-Line to be in the backfield early and often, so he may not get a chance to throw many passes anyway.

Looking forward to playing you in November, and keep winning so our victory will be all the more impressive!

Go Dawgs!

I have seen the euphoria before. When Tech hired Chan the masses swore he would change things. And now it is PJ euphoria. He has beaten a D2 team, an average to below average BC team and one of the worst teams in the SEC. Not just this year but ever. You could make the argument they have played only one complete game, against a Miss St team who had just lost to a big rival and had to go on the road for a noon start. Now hold onto your pocket protectors. PJ may be all that you hope but don’t you think he should win a few tough games before you upchuck all this love.

I agree with Born2Buzz observations: UVA is wretched this year, and had 6 TOs in their game vs. Duke. The fact that a totally out-manned Navy team could hang 31 on Duke and hang for all 4 Qtrs says plenty.

Only GT TOs will keep this game from being an outright massacre.

RealisticFan:

Why would a real Tech fan make a comment about pocket protectors? I’m just saying.

When Chan was signed, I said, “WHO???” I think a lot of other people did, too. I think people missed O’Leary the day he left. I’m not sure what kind of “change” you think people thought Chan was bringing (insert obligatory Obama “change” joke here).

There’s a lot of games on the sked left…a lot of games we can lose if we don’t execute (and in some cases simply get outmanned or outplayed). I don’t think that everyone—if anyone—has forgotten that.

I do think, though, that everyone sees the new attitude that CPJ has brought, win OR lose, and is most appreciative, to say the least. CPJ holds everyone on the team accountable, himself first and foremost. You couldn’t say the same about Chan.

In other words, “it’s just a game, dog” would never come out of CPJ’s mouth or the mouths of any of his players.

Navy doesn’t have the size or talent on defense. We have a top Div 1A defense and that’s the difference in this game. Duke is improving, but they won’t be able to hold us for less points than we put up on them. And that’s the beauty of running the Spread Option at this level. Also, we can throw the ball, and will if need be.

Don’t waste your time on Realistic. He couldn’t possibly be a TECH FAN. Just another UGA guy starting trouble. Ignore the ignorance. Great opportunity for TECH to get better this weekend on both sides of the ball. First we get a week of extra work, now we have an opponent that will give us more than the scout team can in the passing game to see if what we worked on will help us in the passing game. I hope Duke gives us a look that will allow us to pass the ball. I would really like to see BeBe and Melton, and the others get some pass plays to showcase their talents. It would be a great reward for their hard work in the blocking area. Jaybo also needs work passing the ball. Would love to see this offense get clicking on all cylinders both running and passing.

May be off on this but did I hear/read that Navy beat Wake Forrest or was that some other team? As for this weekend Tech just needs to execute and it will have a chance to win like it will every week. That means when passing hitting the open receiver and catching the ball and therefore the optionn will open up even more. As for defense, it’s hard to complain except to try and tighten up some on the run defense to force more three and outs during the bend but don’t break intervals. The passing and scoring defense appear to be pretty good so far but Duke has a good QB and Cutliffe is a passing guru as well as good on the run.

Get ready for a much better Duke team that is focused and well coached. They also have a very experienced offense. Their O line is good. Our defense has been exposed all season for crossing routes and short passes. We have a long way to go however, I do think that the CPJ factor will allow Tech to win this game. If our D line can create pressure we win fairly easy. If their O starts to click it will be a difficult task to just get a win. I hope that the week off also makes a difference remember we are starting a freshman QB that can not throw the ball at all. Go Tech and win the ones we used to let get away from us.

By RC

Melinda, if PJ can’t lure elite skill talent our offense will be 2 to 3 10ths slower than the defenses we face. And sooner or later PJ will have to develop some type of passing attack. That takes a good passer btw and some wide recievers. Right now there are no Julio Jones or A.J. Greens or 4/5 star QBs that will even open a letter from Tech.Talented defenses at this level will figure this offense out after seeing it 2 or 3 times and that is when it will be essential that we have skilled position talent that can match up. If we don’t have that a couple of years from now mediocrity won’t be a strong enough word to describe what could happen.

National Football Post Special to Rivals.com College Football

» RELATED: Early look: NFL draft top 100 prospects | Ranking the position groups

A record 39 underclassmen were selected in the 2008 draft, and the 2009 draft could break that record. Michael Lombardi, Andrew Brandt and Wes Bunting of National Football Post rank this year’s underclassmen for the 2009 draft class. Remember that college scouting is a continual process that changes on a week-to-week basis.

Georgia’s Matthew Stafford has what NFL teams look for in a quarterback. 1. Matthew Stafford, QB, Georgia Stafford is the nation’s most natural pocket passer and exhibits an intriguing blend of accuracy and arm strength. He has all the physical tools to become a top-flight quarterback at the next level, but his maturity and awareness in the pocket are the things that make him such a highly rated prospect.

1. Andre Smith, OT, Alabama A road-grader on the outside who plays with great power and leverage in the running game. He has the size to play on the right side, but it is his athleticism and quickness that make him special. A rare athlete for his size, he could excel at a variety of positions on the offensive line. He needs to keep his weight in check.

2. Knowshon Moreno, RB, Georgia One of the most natural and instinctive runners in years, Moreno features great vision through the tackles with elite quickness and change-of-direction skills. He runs with great balance and power while consistently making the first man miss and accelerating upfield.

3. Michael Crabtree, WR, Texas Tech An ultra-productive player who uses his blend of size (6 feet 3) and body control to consistently make plays on the outside. He runs sharp, precise routes for a man his size, and has the ability to separate on all levels. A natural receiver with good hands and strong wrists, he’s a consistent jump-ball threat.

4. Sen’Derrick Marks, DT, Auburn The most explosive and disruptive three-technique tackle in the nation. Marks has been playing at an extremely high level this season and does an excellent job firing off the line at the snap and shooting gaps inside. He plays low with a powerful leg drive, and showcases the suddenness to get off blocks. He looks like the cream of the crop among underclass defensive linemen in the SEC.

5. Brandon Spikes, ILB, Florida A sideline-to-sideline linebacker who makes a ton of plays on all levels on the field. Spikes is a long, angular athlete who possesses a strong lower body and is just as comfortable stacking and shedding at the line as he is dropping off in coverage. An emotional leader who is always around the ball, he’s the type of player around which you can build a defense.

6. Geno Atkins, DT, Georgia If Marks is No. 1 among underclass tackles, then Atkins is No. 1A. Atkins is a bit undersized but is extremely quick off the snap. He uses his arms well to disengage from blockers, and has the body control and suddenness to get upfield. He has a great motor and displays good closing speed, and never stays blocked for long.

7. Taylor Mays, FS, USC Mays is built like a linebacker (6-3/230), but is fluid and re-directs as well as some corners in the NFL. A natural bender who can dip and explode out of his breaks. Showcases good straight-line speed and range, but it’s his instincts and nose for the ball that really have scouts buzzing. The most physically gifted safety to enter the draft since Sean Taylor.

8. Vontae Davis, CB, Illinois The brother of San Francisco tight end Vernon Davis, Vontae is blessed with the same kind of natural athleticism. He’s an explosive, quick-twitch athlete who exhibits excellent straight-line speed and change of directions stills. He is comfortable in press coverage and loves to play physical. He isn’t afraid to stick his head in and make tackles.

Associated Press

Missouri wide receiver Jeremy Maclin offers both great speed and good size. 10. Jeremy Maclin, WR, Missouri Maclin possesses elite speed (4.38) and good size. But it’s his body control and quickness that makes him so intriguing to scouts. Maclin’s ability to stop on a dime and change direction is second to no one in the NCAA. He reminds some scouts from an athletic standpoint of Chicago Bears wide receiver Devin Hester, but he is a far more polished receiver and route-runner.

RC, is that short for reality check, a dog?

The fact that CPJ has Tech farther along than most fans and potential players thought could one day change your dim view of his recruiting ability. Perhaps more than a few fast/skilled players will want to play for a coach that shows promise of ACC glory sooner than later. And if he is successful in that last game this year, even quicker!

CPJ and mediocrity is unlikely. His record of winning at his previous schools/academy is fact…hard to argue with facts. Johnson is a winner.

CPJ has made his rep in D1 against less than even mediocre opposition. 5 wins against winning teams in 6+ years. He picked the right conference to keep that trend going though. When he beats UGA and a real somebody in a BCS Bowl then maybe he is more than a coach that makes his living beating nobodies. But Tech doesn’t have to worry about BCS Bowls so they won’t have to suffer the humiliation that would come with that. UGA will destroy the myth of CPJ soon enough.
