I'm just starting to get the feeling you are not a Bowden fan. ? Is it because so far our best plays have been Toledo penalties?

Ugh 84-0 would not be a good look :-(

Toledo is significantly better than the Zips. Thank goodness we play in the east

Don't scare me like that. From your title I assumed that meant three players had been suspended or injured and I opened the article to see the names of Gilbert Woodson and Brown.

Already sort of were - Troy. The East is certainly winnable this year. BTW I wonder when the last time we finished with a winning record against the West was?

Why are we only rushing 3 and putting zero pressure on him?

I so hope that is not a euphemism ?

The defense has absolutely done their job today. Come on offense what are you made of?

I got a bad feeling about this

I am a little surprised that Western Michigan didn't didn't go for two on that touchdown. They are still going to need a touchdown either way if they kicked it or missed the 2-point conversion. If they made the 2-point theyd only need a field goal

That turnover at the end of the end of the field was huge. And not in a good way

For a guy who ran for over 280 yards against us last year they're doing a pretty good job keeping Franklin bottled up

Great defensive stand again. I've lost the sound on my feed

If you have 40 yards in penalties in a few plays shouldn't you be coming out of the game?

I think there is an outside chance that K92 passed out out of excitement

Louisville sold it's soul in pursuit of athletic glory. Pitino and Petrino are two of the scummiest coaches in all of college athletics. I hope Louisville goes down hard.

NIU didn't seem too intimidated. Though I should have actually quoted kreed.

Just saw an E60 program about the blind Long Snapper who is at USC. Fitschen was his kicker in high school.

And the Zips cover it.

Ugh -left at halftime

I'm going to be in central New York for a different purpose this weekend so against my better judgement I'm going to stop by for the game on my way. Found a seat on the 50 yard line on the Zips sideline 5 rows back from the field for $60 (plus Stubhub Fees).

Nicely done "Captian". ;-)

Wow only favored in three games, APB, Buffalo and Kent. :-(

skip, nope actually not what I was driving at, maybe a should have explained a little more. I don't think what we do likely matters too much in terms of motivation, that's more up to the individual and coaches. I was implying more that since it appears players (from any team) probably do check the board at least occasionally (and we know so do recruits and parents of recruits) that perhaps a group of boosters that appear to support UoFA athletics might be a good front door for all of them. Your opinion certainly has some validity since Zach mentioned he did get some motivation by being called Rudy, but that's not that much of a criticism. But if I'm an athlete at UofA (or a recruit considering UofA) and I see the primary booster group bitching and moaning about how awful UofA athletics is perceived to be by the people who support it most, it might give me second thoughts about whether I'd made or was making the right choice. Certainly a time and place for well-warranted criticism but that was more my point of trying to paint a positive picture of UofA being a good supportive place (as opposed to a safe space ;-)).

A really good reason right there to stay as positive as we can on this board.
