We did tell the SEC that the purchase was final and there are no returns, right?

In other words, there are no moral victories for us Tech fans anymore. Win good, lose bad. Period. It is completely dichotomous at this point.
EDIT: I was responding to Slorch's post. I should've quoted it.

I just wonder where this team would be right now if McLane Carter hadn't got hurt against Ole Miss. Bowman is saving Kliff's career.
No shit. Scary to think about actually.

Tech is handicapped with a fucking moron for a head coach. He's a great OC, but some of his HC decisions are just dumb.

Kliff should be fired for wasting a timeout on that bullshit. He deserves to lose for that kind of game mismanagement.

YES!!!

Okie Lite scores come from the server?
Only if they copied it first.

Tech needs to not piss away this half's opening position.

Dammit, Bama. Quit fucking around.

There will be an immoral SEC victory because Saban is going to do some unspeakable acts to aggy.

Crazy as it sounds, do I start Aaron Rodgers or Pat Mahomes? Rodgers knee is a problem.
Mahomes has more weapons to choose from, believe it or not. I would go with Pat.

How does this happen?
Our league is on ESPN, and you lose points as your defense allows more and more points. So the Ravens allowed like 34 points and had no sacks or turnovers, so I ended up negative.
Luckily, my QB and skill players more than made up for it. Thank you, Mahomes. Thank you, Gurley. Thank you, Diggs.

Probably the biggest difference is Ole Miss took out the starting QB on the second series of the game and Bowman was put in with little preparation and kept on a short leash. He had the Lamar game to work out the kinks and open the playbook. We all saw what Bowman did vs. UofH. I certainly don't expect that type of performance at Okie Lite and I figure the true freshman will come back to earth pretty quick. Seems like Kliff actually schemed pretty good against the UofH DL and Oliver.
Let's see if he can scheme against the much better overall defense that Okie Lite has.
All of this plus Tech losing possibly one of its best DB's early to a targeting call. Also there were some key personnel out with injuries that may be back for the Okie St game.

What would you guys say Kliff's signature wins are? Wins that he can hang his hat on? Here is mine,
2015 win vs Arkansas in Fayetteville against Bielema.
2015 win vs Texas in Austin
2017 win vs Texas in Austin
Honorable mentions:
2016 OT win vs TCU in Fort Worth
His first year he had some really great wins over TCU, W Virginia and Arizona State, but wasn't it still Tuberville's team?
I agree with your's above.
I will give him credit for all his first season wins because Tuberville's recruiting wasn't that great, and he quit on it. Regardless of talent, that TCU team he beat his first year was a pretty salty team. I also think the bowl win over Arizona State can be a signature win because they overcame the meltdown that was the second half of the season, a lot of injuries, and the Baker Mayfield Diva Drama.
I want to know why the 2015 Tech team that went into Arkansas and just dominated was such a flash in the pan? It's like Kliff put all his emotion and energy into preparing for that one game alone. I want to see that team every week.

Did Kingsbury throw a shit fit or at least protest to the officials at all?
No. I don't think Kliff even knew it happened, otherwise I would have thought he would have challenged it. Can't coaches challenge that play? I know it's reviewable.

Not trying to rain on the parade in the least as I enjoyed getting a win. It's a heck of a lot better than losing. There were still a lot of trademarks out there though of a poorly coached team IMO. Horrible defense, senseless, undisciplined penalties, and poor special teams to name three.
It also makes sense to recall we beat UH last year and we all know now what transpired the rest of the season. While the UH offense is really pretty good, UH is most certainly a team that will never be confused with Alabama. An apparently pretty bad Rice team gave them all they wanted and Arizona is beyond bad as well.
I'm hardly ready to endorse giving KK a contract extension just yet.
We all knew KK would have a learning curve when he was hired, and I think most Tech fans were well prepared to be patient enough to allow him to learn on the job.
But there hasn't been any trend towards improvement, minus the offensive play this year (which I admit is light years better than last year already).
I think the minimum, and this is the bare minimum, that Kliff needs to keep his job after this season is 7-8 regular season wins plus a bowl victory. Unfortunately for Kliff, I just don't see it happening. That defense is still horrific, and the penalties just keep coming with sad regularity. It's a shame...I really like Kliff and I want him to be successful. I'm just not sure he's going to be able to improve enough this year to make it happen.

Harrell is the OC in name but is littrell the play caller like we see so often?
The coaching trajectory has been swift for him, if he had air raid concepts learned from being a qb in it and mix in littrells acumen from working with at UNC, IU, and UofA, he would be nice to have here but I know it won't go as well as we would hope. Because we can't have nice things and all.
No. Seth is much more a traditional head coach, and he lets his coordinators call plays.
The WR coach is Joel Filani, who also played at Tech when Seth was a coach but before Graham's time. He is the one on the sidelines during the game coordinating with the players while Graham is up in the pressbox calling plays from there.
