I may be wrong, but I think the point was not referring to Georgia Institute of Technology as Georgia Tech GATech or Georgia Tech but for appending “University” to the end.  There is no “University” in either “Georgia Institute of Technology” or “Georgia Tech”.  Virginia Tech and Louisiana Tech both have “University” in their full names, but as pointed out, neither MIT nor Cal Tech do.

Hi BC,

(1) Hope all is well.

(2) I think I see your point. Maybe I confused 82lsju (which was not my intent, & which I tried to clarify ...sorry 82lsju for any confusion).
I wrote out a list of 4 universities and just for 'prosaic consistency & symmetry within the list' appended the term 'University' to all 4 of them;
I assumed 90% of sports fans on this board would know which universities were being referred to, & did not think that would cause such a stir.
