Misery Index · Despair · = from 86
Two games, two beatdowns, and a fanbase calling the program a halfway house for its own alumni.
The emotional rollercoaster
Georgia Tech fans’ misery during the game, every 15 minutes. Up is worse.
What happened
Tennessee came to Atlanta and ran straight at them, 45-24, and Georgia Tech fell to 0-2. The turning point wasn't a trick play or a blown call; it was the realization, somewhere in the middle quarters, that nothing was stopping "basic runs up the middle." Fans had already moved past anger into taxonomy, classifying the program as "a halfway house for Georgia Tech alumni who suck at coaching football." Misery held at 80, which is its own quiet verdict. Despair stabilizes eventually.
