2015 Week Seven:
Recruiting:
Here comes up the big update, position by position.
At QB, 4* Frank Powell has us way ahead of Maryland and Tennessee. It looks like a lock.
Same thing at RB. 4* Tony Weddle should committ to us fairly soon.
The offensive line is a big need for us. At tackle, 4* Cory Doyle is our main target. He has us #1 but Penn St. is close behind. At guard, we have a 5* players, James Thompson. He has us #1 but Oklahoma is so close it's practically a tie. We're right behind LSU on 4* Willie Brink. At center, we lost a 3* but have a 2* that favors us.
We're in a close race with Maryland for 3* DT Josh Jamison.
At OLB, 4* James Stewart likes us but still doesn't seem too set yet. Penn St. is slightly behind.
At MLB, we have two 3*'s. The better player has us #1 but has Texas right behind us. The other two players, a 3* and a 2*, have us at #1 with a pretty big lead.
Free Safety is look awesome. We have a 5* recruit, Chase Ewing, who has us #1 over WVU. As a backup, we have 4* Ira Miller who clearly favors us.
We have four players who we're going after at SS, and the two we really like have us way ahead.
3* Punter Travis Scott has us in the lead.
When it comes to the athletes, we have another 5* recruit there, T.J. Davis. He's got us #1 and we're slightly in the lead over BYU. 4* Ronald Howard puts us right behind Kansas St. at #2.

Game:

A little too close for comfort, but we eek out the win. The first quarter ended with GT up 17-7, but we outscored them 14-3 in the 2nd and didn't let up.
Ford actually got the majority of the playing time in this one due to a minor injury to Carpenter. Ford went 8-12 for 128 yards, 2 TD's and 1 INT. Carpenter went 5-6 for 40 yards and a TD.
Tate ran 14 times for 156 yards and a TD.
Archie did very well, catching 5 passes for 91 yards and a TD.
On defense, Townsend and Guerrero each had a sack, and cornerback Doucette has an INT.
Final Score: Rutgers 38, Georgia Tech 31
