Captain Kangaroo

Oh no...a prop bet on college sports. Guys in FBI windbreakers are racing towards Clarke's house as we speak!

At home, versus a hapless Minutemen team. coming off a MAC road win at Buffalo, this is a "must win" game for the Zips. Should they win, the Zips are poised to force the locals to pay at least a little attention to the program as the Kent game approaches. They absolutely cannot take a step backwards with a home loss next Tuesday. A win would go a long way in securing Joe Moorhead's return in 2026. That is...should he want to return. But that's a story for the offseason. The Zips have done a good job of handling their business against lesser teams. Relatively healthy, at home, and coming off a road win, I see a 41-17 Zips beatdown of UMass next Tuesday, setting the table for a fun, intriguing Akron/Kent match up the following week. I think I saw Joe Akron's left big toe move a little? Could he be emerging from his coma?

Chapter 1 of the prophecy is fulfilled. if the Zips go 4-0 to close out 2025 and ruin it, I’ll be pissed. 😀

And it was…

Our offense couldn’t be more inept if it tried. Holy helll…

If I had a freight train of 6 defensive linemen sprinting unabated at me, I’d look like a deer in headlights too.

Had a Great Lakes Oktoberfest in the hot tub, then moved on to a French Rose’ to go with dinner. 🤘 I huffed some airplane glue after lunch, but I can’t believe that caused any issues?

Akron 31 Buffalo 24 I will go out on the mother of all limbs and predict the Zips go 3-1 to finish the season.

YSU-Akron Scrimmage

CMU is pounding BG 27-6, and Kent is up on Toledo 10-7 in the 2nd quarter.

Can the Zips give me a reason to give my wife a freaking high five at some point during the game. That's all I ask. Zips games have been like a Nick Saban VRBO commercial for years... I can envision President Nemer looking at the Zips player: "As your President I have some rules. No post game showers longer than 2 minutes, we have a budget...the locker room isn't a spa." "The digits underneath "Akron" on the scoreboard...don't use them. We cut the scoreboard operator from the budget and can't change them from 0" "To the fans...no high fives, no fun...the kids aren't allowed on the endzone grass." "There's a great loge and food spread upstairs...don't touch that." "To anyone that wants Zips gear - the team shop opens at 3pm." Fans: "But it's 2:45 and I want to buy some hoodies". Nemer: "I know."

I thought “Design a lame new logo” would solve all the football problems…boy was I wrong.

I would have killed to see Lemmy coaching the Zips.

Or possibly just had their eligibility expire.
