  1. Zips are undefeated in gold helmets and 0-4 in white helmets...just sayin'
  2. -The MAC schools get much needed money for their program. -The players want to play on the big stage against the best competition, on bigtime TV networks and love the thrill of pulling off the major upset. -The P5 schools get their win...usually. -The MAC fans love to travel to these big venues to watch their team play in front of 80,000+. I would much rather travel to watch them play at Kentucky, or Indiana, or Tennessee than Buffalo or Central Michigan etc. Sure it sucks when it's a beatdown like the Zips got this year but as they improve they will compete.
  3. Students barely come to home games, they aren’t going to travel to Toledo. Keep P5’s on the schedule, it’s good for everyone.
  4. This is good crap right here. I believe in this guy. He’s a great coach, a great guy, and is committed to building this program. It’s an uphill battle with a program that has been down for so long but I think he can do it. We all want immediate results but it’s a process. Everyone needs to grab a friend and drag them to the games, change is coming!
  5. I feel some momentum
  6. Very even - except rushing yards
  7. Who was it?
  8. 5/6 for Liberty so far
  9. I tried, didn’t work. Appreciate it though
  10. I give up trying to find a source to watch it unless someone has a link to share? Can’t find it
  11. Still waiting on that first TD vs a D1 opponent....hopefully soon
  12. Its so frustrating seeing all these other MAC schools playing competitive against the big boys and the Zips haven't even put up a fight yet. The start of this game is not good and feels like here we go again.
  13. Probably parents
  14. I have no morals ....so either way!
  15. Is there anywhere to watch the game online if you don't get espn+??
  16. Jumping ahead, but BG plays at Mississippi State this week, lets hope they get physically beat up before they head to Akron for October 1 game. These out of conference games are interesting but we really need to see some progress for the program against MAC opponents.
  17. lol...i read that wrong!
  18. Kent has a tougher first four games: at Washington, at Oklahoma, at Georgia and home vs LIU
  19. Too many "get off my lawn" guys commenting! I hate big crowds and traffic too but there is nothing better than a packed house for college football! The crowd, the band, the students and the energy are a major part of what makes college football great.
  20. It's really sad that the local media doesn't support (or at least cover) the home town team, inexcusable.
  21. It's a delicate balance. You need to play big schools and if you build up your program enough you can compete with them. Unfortunately, this team is not yet ready to compete with the big boys. Look at all the small conference schools with upsets against the big boys in the first few weeks. App State, Marshall, Georgia Southern etc. And several others have competed well but lost. Akron needs to keep the big boys on the schedule and I assure you that they players want it as well. Every player wants a chance to play at Tennessee or Ohio State or Notre Dame etc. Once again, the biggest issue is that this program needs to get competitive.
  22. What's the latest on Irons? If they've said anything official I must have missed it.
  23. I haven’t seen any uniform update for today. Anyone know what combo they are wearing?
