Stupid Oklahoma and Texas
Up until now I couldn’t quite put my finger on it, but this brings it all together.
The arrogance about his offense, chip on the shoulder, 1-AA success, confrontational style with the media, even the references to Oklahoma’s offense under Switzer…
Paul Johnson is Georgia Tech’s Jim Donnan.
This Johnson quote is right out of a 1996 Georgia press conference:
"If something wasn’t wrong, if what they were doing was so great, we wouldn’t be here…It’s not like we’re coming in here and dismantling this high-powered machine that was lighting everybody up."
If nothing else, the rivalry is about to become a lot more entertaining. Tech fans will lap up the tell-it-like-it-is style (at first) as Georgia fans did, and Dawg fans should look forward to years of colorful quotes coming from the enemy.
