I knew it's been a struggle against WMU recently but I didn't realize it was that bad. Gotta have a win tonight!

Chad Wiseman, the Western Michigan coach, has an outstanding record against the Zips. Every soccer game is a challenge. The zips can not afford to being looking ahead to their top 10 matchup on Saturday. Chad Wiseman knows how to prepare for the Akron offensive game plan. The Zips owe a ton of payback to the Broncos. From 2019 to 2024, the Zips and the Broncos have played 8 games. In those 8 games, our beloved Zips have exactly one win. Let's look at the facts : 2019 1-1 tie 2020 teams played twice 0-0 draw 4-3 Western Michigan win 2021 4-3 Western Michigan win in overtime 2022 teams played 3 times 1-0 Zips win in first regular season meeting 1-1 tie in 2nd regular season meeting 2-1 Western Michigan win in conference tournament 2024 1-1 tie Since the beginning of 2019, the zips have a 1-3-4 record against the Broncos. On paper, the Zips are playing well...and this is a home game. Games are not played on paper. Zips need to come out focused and step on the Bronco's neck. Go, Zips

Happy Birthday Coach Groce.

GOALLLLL

Zips all the way up to #3 in this week's coaches poll! https://unitedsoccercoaches.org/rankings/college-rankings/ncaa-di-men/

OU just beat West VA a $284 million dollar program, thats ranked 53rd out of 68 Power Five schools. It amazes me how yall basically crap on our own Conference looking and judging everything at face value which is whats exactly wrong with our program and pathetic fanbase. If yall think like losers = we will continue to be losers.

The Big East did not have a good night on Monday September 8th. St. John's had looked very strong this year. In their last 2 games, St. John's had tied highly ranked Wake Forest and they had tied an outstanding Marshall team. Against, Marshall, St. John's led Marshall in shots, shots on goal and in corner kicks. Tonight, St. John's played host to Rhode Island. Rhode Island came into the game with an 0-3-1 record. In their last game , Rhode Island suffered a 3-0 beatdown to Albany, Tonight, Rhode Island defeated St. John's by a 2-1 score. Army was at home and they shut out Villanova . A 2-0 win for Army. 10th ranked Pitt scored 4 against Butler in a 4-1 win. Tuesday night is a big night for opponent strength of Schedule for the Zips. VCU plays at highly ranked Clemson 6 pm Vermont hosts Dartmouth 6 pm Louisville plays at Ohio State 7 pm last Friday, Louisville upset Stanford 1-0 (Stanford was ranked number 1 at the time of the loss) as much as zips fans dislike OSU, a Buckeye win over the Cardinals will help the zips in RPI James Madison will play at Georgetown 7 pm Northern Kentucky will play at Bellarmine 7 pm Bellarmine had a 3-1 win over Xavier earlier in the year.

Congratulations to Mitch Budler A well deserved Honor.... Zips fans are fortunate to get to watch a fantastic GK every game.

Keep in mind, all of this was done in the preseason. I’m also not sure how much we actually learned in a loss to a G5 team compared to what UAB did against an FCS. If we’re looking at Week 1 in a vacuum and treating Alabama State and Wyoming as equals, then give UAB the edge in all the offensive spots and Akron the edge in the defensive ones. Special teams would go Akron’s way too. Teams rarely look the same in Week 2, but unfortunately for us, we’ll probably still be staring at an ugly score against a team with superior resources and talent. Week 3 against UAB will be a better barometer for this team.
