  1. Pretty sure an extra down kept this drive alive
  2. Tailgating scene certainly puts ours to shame. Impressive display.
  3. Glad we have the video but a little audio would be nice to go along with it. Zips looking reasonably sharp so far.
  4. I'm heading down - anyone else planning on going?
  5. I wondered that same thing - the guy's obviously a talented athlete and the Zips have had success in the past converting QB's to wide receivers - D'Orazio was a QB and was unarguably our best WR the past couple of years. If Woodson or Pohl establishes themselves I'd think they'd at least have to think about it to get Chapman on the field.
  6. Excellent as always good doctor. :-)
  7. Great job by the Huskies too bad it wasn't a monster upset but a one TD loss is pretty impressive and the Zips were the answer to the AFLAC trivia question. :-) Toledo is up on Iowa St. 13-10.
  8. They might not have a lot of yards but are only down 10-7 at Minnesota.
  9. Glad to see Hundley get the score. He has worked his ass off today.
  10. Great comment by Jerrod Cherry on the TV broadcast. "Chapman may not be ready to be the featured player in this offense but Conor Hundley has proven that he is". I don't understand why they don't use him more.
  11. I have plans to go to Louisiana next week - I'm still going to go but I may skip the game. I don't think there is any chance this team is a contender in the MAC this year. What a waste of a terrific defense.
  12. Offense can't even get it together against one of the worst (maybe the worst) teams in all of D-1. Smh
  13. Love it when Cody carries near the goal line :-)
  14. That doesn't really fully cover the question in this thread that started all of this, which I don't think has ever been answered. GoZips, you keep beating the no High Major will come to Akron drum, I think everyone understands that (as long as we have the same definition of High Major - a team in the Power Five Conferences plus a few notable others), but earlier in this thread I noted a bunch of good mid major programs that are in Akron's RPI range (Valpo, Iona, Harvard, Georgia State, Green Bay, Richmond, Louisiana Tech, Yale, Murray State, Illinois State, Northeastern, La Salle, High Point, South Dakota State) that would be a good home and home series that we seem to have trouble scheduling and for whom you would assume no payout would be necessary. I'm no scheduling expert and I don't live close enough to have a discussion with Steve McNees so I was hoping since you are close to the program maybe you could help those of us on this board understand why that seems to be a difficult thing to do.
  15. Huh, I thought it was Keener that said that.
  16. It might not be completely random but CNN just listed Akron Ohio as the 10th most affordable place to live in the country.
  17. And the NSCAA player of the week. (edit: ah never mind, Z.I.P's reference was just a site reporting on the NSCAA award. Two player of the week's still pretty good - what's wrong with you College Soccer News? )
  18. Not sure why this wasn't thought of before - we may not have a rich football history but that's one link we do have, kudos to whoever put this in play. When Jason Taylor gets elected to the Hall of Fame we better have one ready for him to unveil on that same weekend.
  19. UA's Computer Science Program Ranked #54 in the country according to these folks, and #1 in Ohio.
  20. Well we know what this year's version would do at least.
  21. Not trying to pick on you but this was unintentionally funny and accurate. Football is supposed to be the marquee sport but I agree with you it has become the Marquis (as in de Sade) sport. All of us who follow it year after year have to have some masochistic tendencies. :-)
  22. Assistant coach was a bit upset after a call went against the Zips. :-)
  23. Akron up 3-2; 5:30 left
  24. Maryland students chanting "Jake from State Farm" and "Where's your khakis?" at Fenlason who responded by apparently bowing t9 the crowd after he made a big play.
  25. 2-0 Zips. Richie Laryea
