I have reported in the past that a friend of mine's son was all state in high school, went to John Carrol and did not see the field with Arth as coach.  After Arth left, he made all conference.  This situation caused me to question his coaching and talent evaluation abilities.  

 

JCU was pretty successful with him. Maybe the kid was just a late bloomer. Or, maybe there were some kids in front of him who were just better.  There are tons of late bloomers in D3.

Z4P's Bryant+ Prediction:

Bulldogs Take a Bite out of Buchtel

Much to the shock and horror of Akron Zips fans everywhere across the globe, THE Bryant University Bulldogs rescue victory from the jaws of defeat with a 1 point victory off of a sausage calved true Freshman Andrew Daragjati 64 yard field goal. When asked post game about the decision to give Andrew the go ahead for the 64 yarder over the proven upper classmen kickers on the roster, Head Coach Chris Merrit explained he had no other choice, as the other kickers were nowhere to be found after a bus stop in Boardman off of Route 224 at Primanti Bros. Not to worry, the players' families notified the university that the men returned home, full to the point of nausea by french fry, but in extremely good spirits.

Buckeyes Bite the Bullet:

Upon arrival in Columbus, the massive nation of Akron Zips faithful had lost all faith in the genius of the "Master of Deception", Thomas Edward Arth, when Andrew Daragjati proved his super human status in Bryant's stunning defeat of the sad and hapless Akron Zips at Infocision Stadium. However, Big Time Thomas sure had other ideas for Ohio's favorite footballers in Akron's 3-2 upset of the one thing rurals and urbans can agree on in this insanely mind boggling, ridiculous, absurdly undervaccinated state. Whenever coach Ryan called for Ohio's most precious resource to dive, Thomas had the Zippers duck. It's almost as if Coach Thomas's every move was completely illogical to the point of insane, irrational, idiocy, but it certainly surprised our good ol' beloved Bucks. When asked postgame about the Akron surprise of the century, Coach Day responded that, the Akron play calling was so erratic and unpredictable, it seemed as if no one on their sideline had ever even held a football before, nor had any awareness of time, place, or reality. Talk about catching our beloved Buckeye boys by surprise! In his postgame presser, Cleveland-ish native Thomas Edward Arth responded that just like every other faithful, decent Clevelander, he was worse than heartbroken to see his favorite college team fall to Oregon two weeks before. He wasn't sure what day it was, but he pledged his faithful and undying love for "the shoe"  and did have some passionate thoughts about Ohio University's 14-49 loss to Louisiana last Wednesday.

I haven't seen a line on this game but FWIW the ESPN app gives us an 85% chance of beginning a new winning streak..

 

 

Wow, an 85% chance against a team from the NEC..

The Bulldogs are in the same conference as the bobcat-slayers of Duquesne.

While Bryant is not as good as the Dukes, they routinely go up against powerhouses like the bobcat slayers.

Difficult game to handicap. 

 

Zips are terrible. Bryant is a bad FCS program.

 

Zips pull away late and win 31-16.

 

I don't care how bad the rest of the MAC appears to be, I still don't see a second win on the horizon. Mathison is the only Arth recruit that is proven to be worth the price of admission. Offense or defense. That's not enough. Hope I'm wrong.

Don't laugh too hard... at one time Akron was in the Northeast Conference for about 1 week-- until the MAC took us in.

 

Long timers will remember:

 

We were moving from Independent status --- for all other sports mainly-- Huggins was livid that basketball had no conference with access to the NCAA Tournament-- and NEC was the only conference willing to take us at the time.

This is monumental.

Can anyone name the last time the Zip football team was involved in back-to-back 1 point games?

how are they doing a replay on a play after another play has been run?????  Good lord.

 

"The play reviewed was the fourth down play, and he was short."

 

Conversation between Referee and replay official:

 

Referee:  "OK what happened on that fumble"

Replay official:  "So we can't replay that, they already ran a play, what are you trying to do here?"
