Like the idea of Tech one day playing Georgia Southern, where Johnson won two Division I-AA national titles? So does Johnson. He said he called Eagles coach Chris Hatcher a few months ago about just such a plan.

"We offered them a game this year when Army dropped us [from the schedule, a gap eventually filled by Gardner-Webb], and they already had Georgia [on the schedule] and I understand they didn't want to play," said Johnson, who was met by a few members from the Statesboro and Savannah-area media. "The schedules are so far in advance, but if you can get an opportunity, I think it'd be great."

It would be so surreal to have my eagles running a conventional offense with Johnson on the opposing team's sideline doing the flexbone option. You have no idea.

But hey, I can't say I haven't been wanting to play them for a long time.

I would love it, but damn the timing. It's hard enough we weren't considered for the playoffs because of the win after beating two teams who went at their house. I am licking my chops now that we open with the 1-A top team.

GSU no question due to the fact that GSU has more ????? entering the season than APP and UGA has less ???? than LSU.

Not to mention UGA is #1 on the USA today poll.
