Has Akron released their depth chart?

https://dxbhsrqyrr690.cloudfront.net/sidearm.nextgen.sites/akron.sidearmsports.com/stats/msoc/2025/pdf/20250824084656-akr-nku-msoc-8-24-25.pdf PDF box score....shows tonight's attendance at 1,487 Shots in the 2nd half were 8-0 for Akron. Caleb Borneo and Jack Sullivan and Remi Agunbiade , to me, were the bright spots in tonight's game. Borneo always seemed to be around the ball in the 2nd half.

"What did he do to encourage attendance?" is another valid question.

Nothing. Just didn’t promote it enough in my opinion.

Some Sunday night scores UConn might be better than expected Thursday night, they knocked off ACC team Syracuse Tonight, UConn hosted #8 UMass...two teams battled to a 1-1 result #23 Hofstra with a 2-0 win over St. John's UNC Greensboro defeated VCU 3-2 Butler with a 1-0 win over Bowling Green.

Setting up tailgate plans now. Hope for a good showing and a win! GO ZIPS!

What exactly did Guthrie do to discourage attendance at soccer games?

Hell yeah it’s game week! Looking forward to seeing this new look Zips team. Just one game, but I’d feel really good about this season if we start out with a win on Thursday.

Thanks for all the recommendations! We'll see how it goes. If all goes well we'll be in the area around 2 p.m., check into our hotel and make our way to the stadium area. Looking forward to checking out your tailgating scene and meeting some Zips before the game.

Goal!!!!!

Wyoming’s depth chart is out. I tried posting above, but was having tech issues. There are few surprises compared to what was expected heading into fall camp, though for the most part it looks about as anticipated.

The first two years out of Covid were electric. Downhill after that, last year was horrendous

Soccer crowds got worse under Guthrie hope they can turn it around under Goodrich. This is about what it was last year when I went

Crowd definitely not as good as few years ago. Could be worse though especially since it’s not a big name opponent.

Who is the bozo doing play by play on ESPN Plus? someone needs to tell him that our GK name is not pronounced BOOD ler

Since you're staying in Canton I'd recommend going to FatHeads if you're into beer. Some of the best IPAs in the country. Excellent smoked wings. They have a sister location in Canton. https://fatheads.com/

WMU off to a bad start puts a damper on our OOC schedule...

My recommendation for that area would be Palombo's Italian Restaurant. It's minutes away and the food gets slept on. If you get a side salad, the white french dressing is a must.

Biggest game of the year in my opinion. I think if we lose this game Zips may not gain any traction or confidence at all. Nebraska is really going to try and run the score up for the home opener and send a message to their fans then go on the road to UAB. Duquesne is not a sure win especially after three losses if that is what happens, then 2 of the next three games are Toledo and Miami. Could be 1-6 or 2-5 right of the gate. Akron beats Wyoming now maybe they have some confidence and come out of the first 7 games 4-3 losing to Nebraska, Toledo, and Miami..

Lots of restaurants on the strip & if you want a traditional Akron-area chain find the Rockne's 1 block (ish) west of the strip. There are a handful of Rockne's around the Akron area & I've never not had great food there. It's your typical sports bar type of place. If you like burgers get the Mack-the-Knife Jr. with fries. Unless you're a former offensive lineman you only need to get the junior.

Wyoming has a new QB and a good offensive line. Seems to me that this game will be won or lost based on how good Wyoming runs the ball. If they are getting a good push and controlling the clock I think they win. If the Zips can stop the run, force a new qb into some 3rd and longs then it favors the Zips.

Dayton really dominated WMU at WMU 18 shots to 7 11 shots on goal other games today number 1 Vermont with a 4-0 win over Boston U DePaul and Oakland battled to a 1-1 result Marquette with 2-1 win over Northern Florida

5-3 final was perhaps an "ugly win" versus a lesser opponent? Zips were outshot 17-10. 6-2 in Corners. But we scored the last two and held on for the victory.
