Looking at the Toledo game thread, I wonder if there will be anyone left to care.

Interesting read.

Just win, baby..

The drums in the background during highlights are really annoying. At 80 years old, Joe Dunn is still The Man. Who's going to fill his shoes when he finally hangs up the mic?

I heard that there's a Meet the Team gathering for both the men's and women's teams scheduled for October 28th? Anyone else heard anything? I guess this could be the annual tip-off reception.

Tremendous result tonight for VCU At home, VCU battled Marshall to a 2-2 tie as of 10:30 tonight, Zips are #11 in Gaucho Dan RPI VCU is #25 now in RPI

INCREDIBLE!! What an honor! And I know NOTHING about her...unfortunately! I'm telling my niece-in-law who coaches the University of Hawai'i that now she HAS to schedule the Akron Zips in Hawai'i!

As a fervent Arsenal supporter (Go Gunners!), I dislike everything Tottenham Hotspur F.C. However, I could grow accustomed to Zips wearing the dark shorts with the home white kit. I think it looks sharp. Tottenham Hotspur F.C. - Wikipedia

I didn't see the broadcast because I was at the match but they definitely appeared to have more equipment than normal, or at least it was more noticeable. They had cords running from outside the stadium to behind the nets for field mics, as well as a fixed camera and camera man on field at midfield. And a camera in a lift outside of the stadium, behind the hill. But all of that doesn't necessarily translate to a better broadcast than usual.

It's a shame that ESPNU couldn't have gotten a mic down ro talk to those two MLS keepers. Frankly, the TV broadcast was "bare bones" at best. No better than ESPN+. But I hope the national broadcast was viewed by all those poll voters who after seeing Akron Zips' dominance, will quickly return the team to the top 10! 🙏

This is the package I have but I altered it a little, which the ticket office was very helpful with. I switched football to GA and soccer to reserved. It only ended up being like $15 more with those changes.

Great game / win last night. Excellent response following the UConn game. Many impressive plays last night. Players worked hard throughout. Need to keep that full on effort going into Butler.

I’ve been using this. I’ve used one football ticket and 4 soccer and I’ve already covered a third of the price. Basketball alone will get me a lot of the way there

Nicer drive / ride back to Columbus for Evan whose alma mater got the better of Schulte's. 😁

Great match tonight from the Zips! When we dominate a top-10 team like that, I wonder if the other team is overrated or were underrated. I think we're underrated, obviously. Also, great to see former Zip and current Crew goalkeeper, Evan Bush in attendance. Along with fellow Crew goalkeeper and USMNT goalkeeper, Patrick Schulte.

Passing thoughts on the game b/c I have nothing better to do: Forget the rankings, the Zips are a top ten team. If what we saw from SLU was true to them, they are not a top 20 team. Akron was the far better team tonight. Our MF's were outstanding, especially in the first half They won the 50/50 balls They set up many beautiful shooting opportunities They filled the passing lanes so well SLU rarely put together more that 2 passes They repeatedly played the ball on the ground out of severe pressure. Having Freddy returning to the backline steadied the defense. I wish he was in there against UConn. The character of this team was on full display. They showed no fear of SLU or memory of having lost the last two. This team is confident and proud, but not arrogant. Jack Roman has emerged as a threat every time he has the ball. Coming from the wing he will force teams to widen their back four. Mitch and Ashton are both 1st team All-Americans. They will play in MLS. Matt Dreas is the unsung glue to our MF. Credit to our coaches for filling 8 open positions this season and for continuing to find the best combinations of players. We are getting better and finding a lot of depth.

Zips and guards win!
