First of all, Happy Thanksgiving to all! NICE START! Fumble recovery - Zips - 7 Can't - 0

I don't think there are any storms or tornados forecasted........... We are playing a hated rival............. There are Championship implications(which everyone has said was needed for good attendance) TV Coverage(granted ESPNU) It's late now......the game is early I HOPE THE WHOLE F'ING CITY OF AKRON knows what is going on and GOES TO THE GAME!!! If there is a crowd supporting the team, IT IS A GUARANTEED WIN! If not, the players are doing it for themselves as usual. I will find a bar covering the game with MY throwback jersey on and work the house. 8K is my prediction and more grilling from the ESPN announcers.

I hope JD explains this game is more important than a rivalry. Buchtelite

31-24 Central Wins!

So now that we understand.......it is prediction time. Zips crush Cant Toledo beats BGSU - Toledo has something to play for, they win Ohio loses to Miami - Ohio has nothing to play for, Miami keeps us out again.

WPIAL, relax kid. I realize it was stated........I simply provided the link for those of us who don't believe everything we read here.

Here.......pretty reliable. MAC

7k attendance would have not changed if it were 70 and clear. History shows us that. Here is a provident idea for you just to show I am not myopic...........When televising a Zip football game, move the cameras to visiting side so it at least looks like there are people there. If that is not an option - move the fans, band, and team to the other side of the field so the cameras see the 7k. There are no differences in the sidelines.

Check out the following link. Everyone thinks an on campus stadium will do the trick. Here is one the we might be able to fill and not look like such a joke on TV. New Football Stadium

I got to see some of the game tonight thanks to the MU/BGSU delay. What I saw.... Getsy looks great, Biggs is an animal, D looks tough and as expected the Akron community is somewhere else. Just got done fielding calls from my buds chastising me about the crowd. What can you say? Why would anyone consider building a new stadium? I wont get started again but I just dont get it. Embarrassing

Soccer Article Good article, mostly on the Zips.

It makes you wonder if the committee would have had the stones to seed them anywhere below #1 had we not lost the game to Indiana. I bet we would have been a 4 seed. UNF%)&INGBELIEVABLE!!!!

I have no idea how to respond to this, except Absolutely absurd!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! I have to go now, grrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.

What is it gonna be folks!

Turn back the clock unis

I know this a rather trifling comment but............Since we are going to be on National TV on Thanksgiving, I wish we were wearing our new/current uniforms. No disrespect to the teams of the past but since we are going to be on display nationally, shouldnt we look up to date. I am skeptical about the timing and turnout for this game, but definately dont agree with the timing of the throwback uniforms. It's not like the nation is going to go run out buy throwback Akron jerseys. BTW, I still have mine and will be wearing it.

Now that is what I am talking about! Keeping great coaches around! Low and behold, a top recruit follows! GREAT MOVE! Coach Lolla Extension New Recruit

BG has a windy field, are we going against the wind? 60 yd punt says we are.;

Great leaders know that great people are the key, W-Ls are not everything in the first years. If I was AD, I would want a recruiter, charisma, and an Xs-Os guy......... if you say KD needs a couple years, I says he will be bought. I was hoping he was a homer and will stay to be a legend.

I will keep my faith in LP like the majority does. I am of the mind that "if it ain't broke, don't break it." I would sacrifice a few bones to keep quality people if it costs a couple less stands or suites in the "new stadium"...... It won't get filled anyways...and BTW you CAN plan for expansion! The stadium will cost millions, you need the right people to make it happen. Thomas, 45, received his B.S. degree in Business Administration from Colorado State University in 1983 Brookhart, who starred as a wide receiver at Colorado State (1985-87) Cincy needs a new B-Ball coach........ours is pretty good, if the $s are there..Yeeha. DEJA VU Ba bye.

I said weeks ago we need to keep the good people we have in place or all efforts will be wasted. I don't understand why we don't throw a little cash around to keep these people.

What if, the Zips lost to St Johns or tied......... :blink: Would they still be number 1? They have quality wins and would have lost/tied to the #3 team. All other teams ranked have losses and or ties. Akron - wins against Maryland, Buffalo, SMU, and Penn St. New Mexico - tie against unranked St Johns - 1 loss, 3 ties UNC - 2 loss, 1 tie Uconn - 2 lost, 1 tie UVA - 1 loss, 2 tie Indiana - 1 loss, 3 tie Hopefully it does not happen, but St Johns does not give up many goals. Projection...........1 - nil Zips.

Here is mine................

Do you want a cookie? At some point we may be able to use the "toss the salad man skit too"
