Why would you try to catch a punt on the 3-yard line as you're backing up?

How does the guy over the ball jump offsides?

Amen. The kid is good.

Just awful between the open guys and running through receivers while never looking back. That long pass was in the air an awfully long time.

Time for another throw to the corner?

How is there ever a series on defense that Bubba is not in the game? I noticed he wasn't in on the opening series and he's not in now.

Solid 2 yard drive.

A fair catch by an up guy not making the catch. Yikes.

Leffler and McDonald's sure love to throw the ball to that far corner.

That opening drive was too easy. Thank goodness leffler lost his mind.

Headed out. Go Zips. Hope to get there early and put a bunch of tailgate concessions on Captain Kangaroo's tab!

Especially after a loss!!

I thought about that. Garvin had a slow start last year then grew up fast. I also do love Dawson and Tribble's energy coming off of the bench. As we've seen with Groce, it isn't about putting the 5 most talented players in the starting lineup, it's about finding the combination that works best.

Just so many unknowns this year. I could see Tribble possibly starting over Hankerson after his success in stepping in after Walton's meltdown last year. I really like his energy off of the bench though (as I liked Dawson's). It 's going to be fun seeing how Groce puts this all together.

I wonder if he is also left handed with a questionable arm.

Okay Zips fans, who do you project as the starting five. I've been disqualified from answering this question based upon my past projections for Taylor Currie.

I think it's a combination of things that will bring people to Infocision. First, to get the area football fans there you need to stop putting an awful product on the field. To get the rest of the general public there, you need a game day experience that will have the mommies and daddies telling their friends about what a great time they had. There shouldn't be a kid playing youth football in the Akron area that doesn't have a free ticket to a Zips game. The basketball experience is the perfect example of having only half of that formula. The program consistently puts a quality product on the court, yet the game day experience is a yawner. You can only watch middle aged men take court length putts, kids bouncing down the floor on hippity hop balls and kids dunking on a Little Tikes hoop so many times. The quality of the teams gets a larger percentage of seats filled than the football program but bring some ingenuity to the game day experience and the gaps would fill in. There must be marketing grad and undergrad students that would take some initiative. Also, talk to the Rubber Ducks staff. They see to understand the marketing side.

Lulling them into a false sense of security. They are falling into the Zips' trap!

The frigid walk in from the deck is always a good reminder!

I got my ticket renewal handled today. A $60 GA season ticket to Zips basketball is still the best deal around.

I believe this is year 4 of year 0 of a rebuild. I'll take Liberty minus 27. Liberty 38-7.

The betting window is now closed.

The Zips are punting well.

That's all about making it harder for Tennessee to prepare. LOL.

Line is down to 46.5 on Draftkings Sportsbook. Must be from all of the money coming in on the Zips!!
