its all performative. he did the same in the Akron game. he hopes the refs will lighten up the calls in 2nd half and also increase his branding as a "bad boy." Also, not sure where he gets off thinking he can damage other people's property, and the MAC and NCAA are like no big deal. He's entitled and with his wife's fortune he knows there are no consequences for his boorish behavior.

at this point, is this a rivalry?

Akron is best team in MAC.

excellent commentary!

https://akronzippedup.substack.com/?utm_campaign=pub&utm_medium=web Zipped Up's preview of Friday's game with some cool stats.

Similar in that respect to the Toledo game last year at Toledo. Zips won for the first time in a long time at Toledo but blew a big lead and gave up 60? points in 2nd half. Won by 7 but Groce was as angry as he was tonight.

Halcovage shouldn't have played Freitag. he got bumped in the end at the end of game. he staggered to bench holding his head. looked like he was going to pass out.

You seem nice.😇

Why does this bother you so much?

really good article from ZippedUp with an in-depth discussion of the Mahaffeys. https://akronzippedup.substack.com/?utm_campaign=pub&utm_medium=web

Ryan's not going anywhere.

If Zips win Tuesday, they will have two MAC seasons in a row with 13 game winning streaks (13-0 to start last season). Don't believe that's been done before. But Miami....

Meh.

Yeah, that 13 point road win sucked. I'm sure they will have a practice between now and Tuesday.

You all discuss Miami more than Akron.

"Saving Coach Ryan"

at this rate, UMass is a 7th seed and Kent is a 3. do your bracket.

Buffalo was a one player team with the WI transfer. hes been on concussion protocol for awhile.

TOS all day/every day

Notice on Groce's lapel there are pins representing important people to him who died recently (I think). Somehow, I don't see Travis doing that.

Kansas State coach shown the door. inmates running the asylum.

CMU is clearly a well-coached and potentially dangerous team. Kent, FWIW, came from the 8th seed to within a fingertip of the championship in 2024. They are always a threat. BG...I'm not so convinced that they are "legit."

Looking forward to our new QB dismantling the Sacramento State defense at Infocision Stadium.
