I wish I cared more about this game and the program in general. Some of that is how incredibly mismanaged this program has been, pretty much since Bowden left. Part of that is what college football has become, with the gap widening every year between the major and mid-major programs. Part of that is knowing that even if we do have a good season, we can't go to the MAC Championship or to a bowl games. I used to go to every home game, and now I may go to 1 or 2. And what really sucks is that I know I'm not alone.
I love Zips athletics with all of my heart, but I'm more invested in soccer now and looking ahead to basketball. Kudos to those who still go to games and support the program, I hope the program doesn't take you for granted.
