  1. I guess one slot below a guy who's going to New York for the Heisman ceremony isn't so bad.
  2. I got your recap right here. :-)
  3. Actually Troy is lurking pretty close as well.
  4. Disappointing result but at least we weren't the number one seed and got ousted by Providence. Wow.
  5. More worried about Corso living that long. :-)
  6. Skip don't get what you're getting at here, I think most people complain about a low profile home schedule not who we play away from home. At away/neutral sites since 2008 we've played at Pitt, NC State, Texas A&M, Minnesota, Miami (twice), Mississippi St (won and that was a top 25 team), West Virginia, Oklahoma St, Penn St (twice won once), Oregon State (won), South Carolina (three times won once), USC (won), Arkansas (won) and National Champion Villanova. I think you can complain about some things about our schedule but I don't think that's one of them. We've played and won against high profile teams. The Ohio GT win will be quickly forgotten. You'd have to win consistently against that type of competition (including the NCAA tournament) to get your average fan to take notice. I have no issues with Akron's away/neutral scheduling and that's not even counting solid mid majors like Dayton and Middle Tennessee.
  7. Loved seeing Louisville get stomped. After their players complained about how they weren't treated fairly by the CFP and they are coached by Bobby Petrino. Too bad Houston has those losses or the committee would have to give them serious consideration for the playoff. Would have liked to have seen what they'd have done but moot point now. Would be OK with WMU making the Cotton Bowl with the Zips now out of the MACC running. Can't see Houston doing anything with their two losses (and one being to SMU).
  8. I was at that game as well - I recorded the goal and posted it to YouTube since that was such a huge win over Indiana then. Enjoy
  9. Can certainly see why O'Leary claimed the job this year though.
  10. Think Miami might be rooting just a little for the Zips next week? Avoiding a loss to either last placers Buffalo or BGSU could have won a division title. Sigh.
  11. I'd like it a lot more if they were they for Toledo vs. WMU. That might be a game worth GameDay but they are probably only there because there aren't any really big games this week. Still happy to see any non power 5 appearance though.
  12. So our best win this year is going to end up being over Miami (a team that started 0-6) and we've given both 2 wins Buffalo and Bowling Green their only conference wins. But so as not to be completely negative Tom O'Leary has taken what was thought to be a weakness into a strength,
  13. #10 for BGSU is a POS. No way JoJo deserved to get thrown out of that game unless he did too
  14. Gotta give the team credit for battling back to tie the game
  15. Ugh. Ugh. Ugh. Wonder why Hoyer is not available? Complete collapse
  16. OU beat Buffalo last night (and pretty handily). The only path for the Zips to win the East now is they must beat BGSU at home and OU must lose at CMU. Both are possible. Then the Zips must beat the Bobkittens at OU. That's a tall order from the way things are looking now. And there's also the little wrinkle that Miami must lose a game in there somewhere or if all those things happen and Miami beats CMU, Buffalo and Ball State Miami wins the East!
  17. Good thing the World Series was on so no one is watching this
  18. I hate those slow-developing run option plays that run parallel to the line
  19. Both. Both are on TV so easy to jump back and forth. And if one game goes really south always have the other. If both games go really south not getting up til Saturday.
  20. Only if the Zips don't play them in the MACC and it encourages "look at me" boy to leave the conference
  21. I guess I shouldn't complain because I can at least see the game but there is no sound with it. But the sound works great during the commercials though
  22. Interesting article about the development of the game in England and one persons impact on the game through analysis (even though the analysis was probably wrong). It dictated the "kick the ball long" strategy that we tend to see all over college soccer and why Porter electing to go a different route really was a small revolution.
  23. Well it is the first and second place teams in the conference late in the season so I think it qualifies as key. Maddening WVU's one win is against us. And apparently we can expect to tie WMU? Bowling Green 2-0-1 9-5-2 Akron 2-1-0 8-5-2 Buffalo 1-1-1 9-3-2 Western Michigan 0-0-3 8-5-4 West Virginia 1-2-0 8-5-1 Northern Illinois 0-2-1 1-9-4
  24. And we get relegated to ESPN3 status tonight. :-( Va Tech-Pitt gets ESPN. Appy St- Ga Southern the U, and a freaking high school football game gets ESPN2?!? Are you freaking kidding me?
  25. Fun night for Northeast Ohio with the Cavaliers opening their season and raising a championship banner and the Indians opening the World Series. Amazing. It's silly but it changes perceptions of cities. Watching from afar but wishing I was there. Go Tribe!!!
