AKR 0-0 Army FT Army are fit and physical, not to mention large. They are disciplined and organized, as one might suspect. Zips could not unlock such a committed defense. The last pass, and the finishing, went begging. That is all. There is no reason for grave alarm right now. I do think Embick needs to get more players into his rotation, but that is a minor point. This was a hard-fought contest where none had the quality necessary to score. It was entertaining, nonetheless. But I am a football junkie, so... We will know more about this team come Friday.

probably way too much optimism, BUT, some factors this person took into consideration... this person is under the impression Poff is returning and is going to have a monster year, says so in the comments miami lost their starter qb ( we do play them relatively early that could be to our benefit this person is not an ohio or buffalo fan ( apparently buffalo had a huge turnover as did toledo when their coach left we SHOULD BEAT UMASS and KSUCKS so to get this the other conference we would need is CMU... he doesn't have us having any major upsets over the non conferences and the only major upset is miami and im sure if their qb was there he would not have picked us... all i know is that as of right now we are tied for first and i am excited and can't wait til next week to see what we have... at least i can enjoy the next week...

Sorry to hear of the passing of Len. He played during an earlier era when many on this site were too young to follow the Zips or had not been born. He was an awesome basketball player, capable of taking over a game on his own. It could easily have been argued that when he played he was the best collegiate player in the state including what OSU and U Cinci had. In his later years he struggled with his health and the effects of bad habits. I saw him 2 years ago in Pittsburgh during our post season run and he did not look good. He was a humble man, yet on the court he was a giant. RIP my Zip friend.

I was going to call it alcoholism or insert whatever drug, but this works too.

Right, whatever date the MAC makes him share something.

Moorhead isn't saying a word he isn't contractually obligated to say. Only way he's announcing anything is if the MAC starts requiring it. One must keep their secrets close to the vest to get a 13-35 record, of course.

OPTIMISM!

Correct - they're turning to a redshirt freshman transfer from Kansas. These "influencer" odds are more worthless than a Kent grad reading story time. FanDuel has the Over 4.5 wins at -102 and Under is -120 which is pretty much a toss up. Nobody knows anything in this crazy landscape.

I forget who it was, but at least it was someone's buddy from here that won...: Go Marty !!!

I was surprised they didn't put Ngongang in last night. I thought he could've been a good sub in the second half at least.
