  1. CBA students win national financial planning competition - http://www.uakron.edu/im/news/ua-financial-planners-win/
  2. 2005 http://football.stassen.com/cgi-bin/records/fetch-team.pl?team=Akron
  3. Oregon, Oklahoma and Alabama all lost...that will shake up the polls. The playoff selection poll should also be out this week or next.
  4. Redhawks won the 2nd half 21-0 to beat UMass by 1. Next week will be no cakewalk.
  5. Kris Givens pick http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:11639884 Conor Hundley TD run http://espn.go.com/video/clip?id=espn:11640230
  6. Sloppy start but receivers are stepping up in bad weather.

  8. Listening to the games, I hear SFPBPA say "he was wide open" a couple times per quarter it seems. It's probably more of an issue with linebackers trying to drop into correct coverage as needed. No defense can lock down all receivers on every play but hopefully that phrase can be used less than half a dozen times per game vs. our MAC opponents.
  9. I'll set the over/under for Zips dropped passes at 4.5. Wet weather would mean fewer passes but a slipperier ball. I'll set the over/under for EMU wide-open receiver catches at 7.5 (for entertainment purposes only...IANAB).
  10. And Weis will retire a wealthy man, receiving $5.6M through 2016 per footballscoop.com.
  11. Be sure to click on the "Too Low" button for the Zips. At least it gets us a little name recognition for all the eyeballs that look at the poll. We are almost into the top half
  12. +1. Play them like they're the Michigan State Spartans. Don't even look at the Vegas line on this one...pretend we are the underdogs at home. Run the ball, catch every pass, no turnovers, no dumb penalties. Go Zips!
  13. Amazing to think that he was head coach (interim) at Notre Dame after Weis was fired. Makes for a good bar trivia question. The silver lining may be that our AD's present and future won't be allowed to make any more big hires on their own without considerable oversight from a team of university staffers and/or outside consultants.

  15. Available again? Our receivers have been struggling a bit...maybe we could use his help? http://www.cbssports.com/collegefootball/eye-on-college-football/24728137/kansas-fires-charlie-weis-after-texas-rout
  16. Use Grice more on offense...3-4 ypc, move the chains, and wear down opponents' defense. I think we have enough depth on DL to do it. Chisolm could start taking reps in practice as slot receiver.
  17. GTSW (this is fun) lists the concerns going forward: http://www.ohio.com/blogs/ua-zips/university-of-akron-zips-blog-1.277207/akron-zips-football-video-zips-21-pitt-10-some-final-thoughts-and-bowden-speaks-1.526686?localLinksEnabled=false&utm_source=twitterfeed&utm_medium=twitter TBHC speaks: Pitt fans lament: http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/Pitt/2014/09/27/Pitt-loses-to-Akron-21-10/stories/201409270178
  18. GRICE again...can we get a hat trick?
