  1. Click me -- "Brookhart said there won't be lineup changes, but there will be new wrinkles on offense and defense."Look out OU...we were just a few wrinkles away from beating CMU last week!
  2. ''The first day always has good enthusiasm,'' UA coach J.D. Brookhart said. ''There was a lot of excitement walking down here. A couple of guys said they got chills. It is our house. InfoCision Stadium is here, it's everyday, it's not five or six times out of the year. This is truly our house and something we will violently protect.''We shall find out Saturday night.
  3. Boast a 3-0 win over Wisconsin and a 0-0 tie vs. Michigan State.
  4. Jordan Thompson --
  5. Noah Keller --
  6. Did Paul Hershey's mom sneeze 1/4 of the way through his birth?
  7. Vince Carlotta:Yes, this look-alike always seems to make an appearance --
  8. Billy Gonzales-Santos: Note: If Zach Thomas has a REALLY younger sister, I like Billy's chances with her:
  9. Cole Bunner
  10. Eric Benjamin
  11. How is Ohio's win vs. BG a surprise? They have losses to UConn and Tennessee, and in both those games they were highly competitive. As opposed to BG, who went down 48 - 0 to Boise State.OU is for real. If the Zips aren't ready this coming Saturday, they'll run us off the field.
  12. Baloney.Like Bowling Green w/Urban Meyer, the Zips wouldn't have the near the money to keep the nation's top football coach in town, but they certainly have enough money to keep the nation's top soccer coach in town.What does the Ohio State soccer coach make? $145,000/yr? We couldn't find an extra 10k to keep Caleb if an OSU offer came about? Get real. Aren't the Zips someting like 26 - 6 - 3 against Ohio State lifetime? Why the hell would a UA coach go there? It's like Jim Tressel leaving OSU for Pitt. The title of University of Akron Soccer Coach is now pretty much on-par with "Maryland Soccer Coach" or "Penn State Soccer Coach." You can be #1 in the nation @ UA. You can get the #1 pick in the MLS draft from UA. You can sell out games @ UA. And you can get paid like an upper-echelon coach @ UA.If Porter leaves it will likely be for a job beyond the collegiate level. He can achieve whatever collegiate goals he has in Akron. If he departs...it would suck, but we would successfully move on. UA is committed to being a Top 10 soccer program. We've been one for decades.
  13. I invoke one rule -- If you think that a player with dreadlocks looks like Whoopie Goldberg...so does everyone else. NO WHOOPIE GOLDBERG PICS! Be more creative!I have yet to decide whether or not to include Emmanuel "Webster" Lewis in this edict too.
  14. The vote tally is looking eerily similar to the Zips/CMU halftime score. Coincidence?
  15. Since GP1 loves Facts --CMichFan Wrote: And what is the guy's record in those games? I'll tell you -- It's freaking 1 - 11!! LeFevour is 1-2 in Bowl games, with a 31 - 14 win against Middle Tennessee to his credit. He lost, IN DETROIT, to Florida Atlantic in last seasons MCB!?CMichFan Wrote -- Thanks for the correction that he didn't play in the Indiana game...that was one win for which I erroneously gave him credit. Regarding the "He didn't start against BC and K.e.n.tucky -- He threw 37 passes against BC and 38 passes against K.e.n.t.ucky?! You act like he sat the bench...give me some credit...all the facts are EASILY searchable.CMichFan Wrote: Roethlisberger lost 21-3 AT Iowa, not in Oxford. That same season Roethlisberger BEAT BCS opponents Cincinnati, Northwestern and Louisville on his way to a 13-1 season!? He tripled LeFevour's CAREER BCS wins in a single season!CMichFan Wrote: You seem to favor opinion over facts. I would too if my arguments were so devoid of facts. LeFevour tears up MAC competition. But on the big stage, he's been a big flop. That's a fact.
  16. I can. If I ever invent a time machine I'm going to set it to 1994 and let you sit through that entire Zips season.
  17. MapQuest says Akron-to-Georgetown Ky is 4hours and 48 minutes.To EKy in Richmond is 45 minutes.I say the Zips are worth the extra 4 hours.
  18. No, the NCAA said that because of field conditions the game would have to be played here...It was added in this years rules, it is our second "home field" each team has one, but most everyone's is actually near their University except us. Luck of the draw they said.Hey can we get a "Z" painted on our field in the center circle like Northwestern has??We just need to rotate the "N" 90 degrees and it's a "Z?"
  19. UK fans need to see film of Matt Seibert and Klass Zollner.
  20. If I had a way to get it from you, I'd take it. I have a ticket, but the kid doesn't. If you want to hide it on campus and PM me a treasure map, I'll hunt it down!
  21. I think Captain has already described his salad days at old McDonald High. McDonald: 5 - 0 this season, and #10 in the state! (gotta use this until I can Photoshop an "ICL Champs" smilie)
  22. We had two consecutive losing seasons with Jacquemain @ QB. He's not the benchmark.
