Tommy Brown is a decent MAC player but he is nothing special on the OL. If you saw how horrible the OSU OL was tonight and realize TB couldn't make the 2 deep, I think you may see my point.

This playing not to lose BS needs to stop.

agreed.

Playing not to lose. Again. Smh. No aggresiveness on either side of the ball.

Someone needs to tell Amato that you're allowed to blitz. 3 straight 3rd down plays including 3rd and 25 and Hackenburg could have sat down and ate a snack.

The problem here is not the ABJ or George Thomas. The problem is that people in Akron don't give a damn about UA. I know certain posters here want to blame everyone else from the Browns, to Cavs and to OSU. The reality is that UA has sucked in football forever. We consider a 7-4 record a good season. At other schools a 7-4 record gets coaches fired. The ABJ is in business to make money. not to appease the handful of Zips fans on this board. If the majority of fans want to read about the Browns, Cavs and OSU, then that is what is covered. Look at this place. This is the only Zips board and we have started the season and there is barely any discussion about the team or the games. The SID for Akron knows there are no fans. Just look at the Media Guide. It's missing half the team and doesn't even both updating weights and positions of players. The problem isn't the ABJ., The problem is our lack of fans.

George, any word on Tommy Brown? I can't believe the NCAA is taking so long.. Well, actually I can.

How long do we keep Embick? He is bringing us down.

MAYBE WE WILL GET A RULING AFTER THE SEASON IS OVER.

Depending on concession sales and merch sales and future fans it would draw, the actual 1 day ticket revenue isn't relevant imo I went to my first Acme Zip at age 7 and it made me a lifetime fan way before I went to UA. Also, you could probably charge a bit more than $2.

Bring back the Acme-Zip game.

Very nice. Thanks for posting

I believe the team is not used to having a large lead that it got to them. As for the running game, hopefully Boyett and Brown are able to play. I also feel that after the lead that the staff got very vanilla and didn't want to show anything they didn't need to show. Nice to see MTB have a big game.

If a Browns pre season game is the reason, that is beyond sad.

That's ridiculous. The season has started.

Take away Pohl and the ypc sucks. Did Tommy Brown not get his waiver or is he hurt?

Good win. Love getting backups some snaps.

Way to ruin the hope of a new season.

IIRC, Buddenburg was an OT while AA was an OG. He was a good player.

Better than Alleman? (SP)

Neither of us said anything about the starting DT. I only said we don't have depth. We have a ton of DL but most are DE size. It's not that we don't have any size, we just don't have enough of it.

It is possible to be big and athletic

You need 3-4 of the 300lb types if you want to stop the run and have rotation. . I am not asking for fat guys. I am asking for big guys.

I asked not to say that. Great, now you made me feel old..

Is Buddenberg related to John the former OL? I can't believe there would be 2 with that name in the UA team without being related. Don't tell me it's his son either. I'm not that old.
