A wary Zipsnation turns its eyes to Kalamazoo.

I try and go 1-0 each day.

Tomorrow is promised to no one.

He's made progress with the Detroit program. Always liked him for whatever reason.

I remember watching that game. Thorpe, German, McCarty and Coach Montgomery.

Quotes from today's ABJ article: "Us getting 100 points means that we have more than five guys contributing," Akron redshirt junior Nate Johnson said Tuesday. "For our team, that gives us a lot of confidence and it is showing that our coach's game plan is working." "I am lucky," Groce said. "I got like 10 starters. Any of those guys can play starters minutes on any given night and impact the game in a multitude of ways. ... Our team has been prolific offensively shooting the ball." "The best player in the game was Western's point guard," Groce said. "He was terrific. I thought Willis was the best player in the game."

On ZipsNation "it's difficult to keep the line between the past and the present."

To Summarize: If U of A had Enrique, this season's wings and guards, along with Red Panda we could stop the would, could, should discussion?

What's their effective height?

One more thought from a wise Zips fan (not myself), as the streak extends and with easy wins with OU, Kent, and Miami, we expect a blow out every game. WMU win felt more like a loss? or disappointment? Miami recovered from a shellacking at the JAR. Zips are going to hit a couple bumps before March 13.

I missed all of that but the huddle may have obstructed the view. Article and photos in PD and ABJ: https://www.cleveland.com/sports/college/2025/02/akron-mens-basketball-defeats-western-michigan-105-92-to-extend-its-win-streak-to-12.html https://www.beaconjournal.com/picture-gallery/sports/college/zips/2025/02/11/photos-of-zips-mens-basketball-vs-western-michigan/78437920007/

Doing what is right isn't really a thing these days.

My kingdom for a viable back up big. Or just a big. Maybe Groce can poach a guy from the men's volleyball team🤨

Zips shot 67% from the field and Amani was 7 of 7 in 12 minutes of play but 0-2 from the line. Bowen 4 for 4. The game was moving so fast I think I missed 2 of those. Problem stat: 12 turnovers from the starters. Zips were behind 3-2, and after that Broncos got as close as 3 with 9:17 left in 2nd. Technical on Bronco bench. Zips already had 81 points.

Travis and Miami beat Toledo for the first time since 2011. Kraft put up 40 points. The brothers are on a collision course.

Zips scored the most in D1 tonight.

Yes, Zips wore down the Broncos like they did the Cardinals. Zips gutted it out. Not getting any easier.

Zips believing their own press. Playing like this would be a cake walk.

They would have made tournament even with a loss, but the Ball State loss as well helped. OT: Train wreck program: read up on the Green Bay Phoenix and their major SOB of a coach. He's likely hoping to be fired in order to get a pay day.

If you set expectations high, you won't be disappointed!

I had same question...what's effective?

With Southern loss tonight, Akron and Yale are only teams undefeated in conference play!
