  1. ND draws a crowd no matter where they play. It being in Chicago gives us a chance of having more people there than we would if it were out west. And who knew we could take a little revenge out on Notre Dame for the Buffalo/Akron football matchup at the Rubber Bow?!: Irish coach Mike Brey also didn't have a lot to say about Friday's opponent, but he is familiar with Akron, especially the Zips coach Keith Dambrot "Keith is certainly LeBron's high school coach and just a well thought of guy," Brey said. "This is a great story. It's funny how small this world is. 2008, and my son was playing at Buffalo. I go over and I sit in the press box in the last game in the Rubber Bowl, Buffalo at Akron with Gerry Faust and Keith Dambrot to watch the game. Well, my guys know that – well, they knew what days Kyle played because we practiced in the morning and then I'd drive. They were pissed. They were like, oh, Kyle must play tonight, Thursday night MAC game, we're practicing at 7 a.m. They win in four overtimes. It was that magical year they ended up winning the MAC title. "I remember sitting with Keith the whole time, great guy, talking about his program, talking about our program. He says to me, you know, we just got this big kid from Pittsburgh. It's the Marshall kid. And he said, I think we stole one. I saw him block a shot the other night, and I happened to watch the game, and I thought, that's the guy he's talking about. "Keith is very well respected in our profession, paid his dues, and I think it's five or six straight 20-win seasons he's had at Akron. But he's just a coach, good old teacher coach, and he's done a great job with the Zips." Article
  2. Sooooo the next time I take the trip down I-69, I will snap quite a different photo!
  3. Through a very tough bracket as well. Simply amazing! Way to go, guys.
  4. Fool me ten times - shame on me. More time of my life I will never get back.
  5. I look forward to hearing about it from those that were there. ZZ live stats showed a lot of cards.
  6. My wife and I will be there. My tailgating and seating arrangements were made by my IU-grad friend, which means, in her words, "I will be sitting in a sea of [whatever their actual colors are - Crimson and White, I think]." I have been to Bloomington a few times so if you need some bar/food/hotel recommendations, let me know. Otherwise, I look forward to not being the only Zips fan in the place and hope for a non-embarassing showing by our team. See you there!
  7. I've been watching on ESPN360 but I know not everyone can get that. ESPN 2 and ESPNU are missing out on some great games. I only get FSI and FSMW. FSMW is always showing PAC-10 games - go figure.
  8. The announcers apologized for it at the end of the broadcast. Way to go, coach.
  9. "I'm partial to Superfund Cleanup Site High. Environmental engineering perspective." First (and only?) CERCLA reference on Zipsnation! Love it!
  10. When it becomes a game of attrition, I always like our chances.
  11. I was in Indy last week and came across this at the NCAA Hall of Fame. Let's get ours up there next year.
  12. Nice win. Feel free to stop by on your way to Michigan, guys!
  13. I don't know if you have the same announcers on FSO, but on FSI, the announcer agreed it was a foul - if not a 3 second violation.
  14. I don't know anything about Wisconsin but they looked to be a respectable opponent - looked like a quality win to me. And Anthony's goal was oh-so pretty! Go Zips!
