Both statements borne out. By the way, can anyone on Ohio catch a kicked ball? I believe BG wins the East, I'm stunned that Can't is doing as well as they are, I think BG beats them at BG. If Can't can win that game, they obviously deserve the MAC East title no matter what happens against Ohio. BG only has Buffalo at home after that.

The Zips have quite an opportunity in front of them. Joe Lunardi's first Bracketology has Oklahoma St, NC State and Tennessee all listed as being in and UMass as the first team out so the Zips have a good chance to change perceptions early on. Would also be fun to possibly beat UMass in football and basketball in a week. I also think that Oklahoma State is a perfect first opponent. High profile, very good but not great (one of the last teams listed as in and #36 in the AP poll) and one the Zips have a legitimate opportunity to beat and raise some eyebrows early. Go Zips!

2012 Can't State Football Roster. Looks real, wonder why it hasn't been mentioned anywhere that I know of. Have women playing college football become that commonplace? 91 April Goss K 5-4 116 So./Fr. Aliquippa, Pa./Hopewell

That's why its a projection. And though it doesn't really mean much of anything the Zips are now the #1 team in two different polls: College Soccer News Top Drawer Soccer David Meves was also selected as the College Soccer News Player of the Week.

NCAA just changed the hardship transfer rules like in Pat's case, where you have to be within 100 miles of your home to care for an ailing family member. Wouldn't have mattered for Pat because he was well within range but it will affect cases like his.

I know it's a bit early, but the Zips are making the NCAA tournament regardless of what happens in the MAC tournament this weekend. If they win it, I think they are assured a top four seed. Here is one writer's projection of the field before this weekend's play. He has the Zips at a four seed but with UNC, Marquette and UConn in their bracket. If it fell out that way, I think that would be "the group of death". Glad there is more time before the selections are announced. And he has Notre Dame as the #1 seed? I know they beat the Zips and have a really strong RPI but I can't see a team with three losses getting the one seed. Here's hoping they go down in the Big East tournament.

Ever get the feeling that the Zipmeister actually does attend these events but sits by himself over in a corner wearing a trenchcoat?

So its now set. Even though WMU deserved to be in the tournament as a better team in the league, I'm happy they're out because we seem to have trouble with them. So next Friday it's #3 WVU vs. #2 NIU at 4 and then #1 Akron vs. #4 BGSU. I think it sets up pretty well. Would much prefer WVU in the final than NIU assuming we get past BGSU. If the Zips do win the tournament they also set the all time NCAA record for a consecutive unbeaten streak in a conference. Also David Meves added to his already NCAA record for shutouts last night without even having to make a save. His record was noted here. They also note that the Zips have not been scored upon in over 1,000 minutes. I do believe this team has a legitimate chance to win it all this year. Their only loss (Notre Dame) was in a game they were dominating until going down a man and one of the ties (Creighton) that was a terrible call from being a win. If they do win it all, that means the senior class could have four sweet sixteen appearances, three national championship appearances and two titles. That would be pretty incredible.

Finally!!! Scott Caldwell with less than five minutes left!

WVU beat BGSU tonight. If WMU ties Akron they make seed #4, if they lose they are out and BGSU gets the 4th seed based on head to head tiebreaker.

No video or audio.

Senior night for four guys who have meant a great deal to the program. Go out with a win and momentum into the post season. With Marylands loss, it could propel the Zips to the top spot in a few polls.

He usually does the women's games. Doing a nice job. Harney is doing quite well, 10-11. He's a bit bigger this year. With my grainy feed I thought he was Tree a couple of times.

And they finally got the audio working. Zips up 39-18.

They finally took it off. Sounded like they had a classroom with four people who were not anywhere near the game miked up. Zips look good but I have no idea what the score is.

I was going to talk about our defense wearing down but realized we didn't score a single point in the second half. The self destruct sequence when we were deep in Can't territory at 3rd and 1 late in the game clinched it. Damn it, probably helped guarantee Can't a bowl game in the process. I think this makes next week's game a little critical for self respect alone.

Anybody watching? Very strange audio feed.

All right Zips, the D made a stop. What are you made of? Game ain't over yet. I just want to see them ruin akzipper's day.

Watching on ESPN3, pretty easy to hear the Zips fans.

Debbie, try to enjoy it while it lasts.

Started great, lets end it now. Then an idiot penalty on the kickoff. Grrr.

If Akron beats WMU, NIU can be no worse than the third seed, because either BGSU or WVU will have a loss or they will tie and both have a worse record than NIU, giving NIU the 2 seed. How embarrassing.

Yep, someone forgot to mute the mic on the last break, badmouthing the hell out of OU.
