I was really impressed with the Zips. I couldn't believe this was the first game of the season. the defense, the fight, the clutch plays, the comebacks. Awesome game. Whether they beat a "ranked" team doesn't so much matter to me. That doesn't matter too much (or at all) come March. And Ohio State may not be ranked too long for all we know. Beating Ohio State would have been incredibly awesome for Akron and Groce. Super game. I liked that he could play so many players.
