Exactly. A spread passing offense such as Texas Tech can probably throw for more yards in a single game than Georgia Tech will all season. Nesbitt is dangerous with his legs, but with his accuracy, the defense might as well put every man in the box. I fully expect GT to lead the ACC in rushing, but if their passing game is as woeful as last year, they're not going to win the division.
There is no doubt that Georgia Tech's passing game was anemic last season but Nesbitt was banged up most of the season with hamstring and ankle injuries. The guy has the arm and I'll agree he needs to work on his accuracy but never really was able to get into any type of rythym because of the injuries. He missed two games as well. Josh has the arm strength and I look forward to a more balanced attack hopefully using the deep ball to stretch the defense.
The Jackets will be returning 10 starters on offense and 8 starters on defense to a team that was 9-3 last season not including the bowl game against LSU which I tend to want to forget. (My wife is an LSU fan, New Years Eve was fun.) Paul Johnson has done a wonderful job with this team in his first season as head coach. The defense will still be strong despite losing Michael Johnson. The running game will be phenomenal with Dwyer.
Like I stated before if Josh Nesbitt can stay healthy GT has a great chance to win the ACC. That is a huge key IMO.
