Does the twitter post mean we're wearing the all whites again @ ruggers?

9 points is what the betting world is expecting from us. I don't think that would be enough for us to win. If Finley has a fractured rib I don't think he will play.
-
line is 23.5 ... with an over/under of 41.5 that's only allowing us 9 or 10 points.

2 weeks away from the home opener and no scoreboard yet. Although I think they've got the wider framework built (or maybe it already was, with the signs beside the original display). I forgot to look for the east stands ribbon board. https://gozips.com/news/2024/6/13/football-akron-zips-announce-construction-of-new-video-board-at-infocision-stadium June 13 | Football Akron, Ohio – Akron Athletics is thrilled to announce the construction of a new, state-of-the-art video board on the south end and a new ribbon board on the east side of InfoCision Stadium. This exciting upgrade is scheduled for completion before Akron's home opener against Colgate on September 14, 2024.

https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/page/gamedayfinal083124/college-football-week-1-highlights-top-plays-games-takeaways-2024 Under-the-radar game of the week South Carolina fans probably aren't exactly excited for the meat of the SEC schedule, but a win is a win, and the Gamecocks' 23-19 escape act against Old Dominion was, in spite of all visual evidence to the contrary, a win. Nothing went particularly well for the Gamecocks, who were breaking in new starting quarterback LaNorris Sellers. He completed just 10 of 23 passes but did have a heck of a tackle (albeit on his own teammate). ODU actually grabbed a late 19-16 lead on a 33-yard field goal with 9:54 to play, but a Grant Wilson fumble -- one of three turnovers on the day for the Monarchs quarterback -- gave the ball back to South Carolina at the 6-yard line, and the Gamecocks scored two plays later. South Carolina finished with just 288 yards of offense, and its two touchdown drives covered a grand total of 9 yards. More concerning for South Carolina fans, Vanderbilt beat Virginia Tech, thus putting up a "vacancy" sign outside the SEC's basement.

28-21 mid third qtr

1. whatever appeals to the players, for recruiting purposes. 2. to not resemble their hated rival from up north.

They seem pretty confident. I saw where one of them had a third cousin twice removed that went to school there for a year.
-
sounds like it was pretty close between Taj and Ben for QB1..

Inside the casino is fine... the problem is the loiterers/panhandlers outside on Public Square. That was Mary Jane you were smelling away from the casino.

Some names to know with Game 1 on the horizon.

Maybe. It certainly wasn't anyone at the ABJ. -
Akron to play Ohio State to open the 2024 season
ZippyRulz replied to LZIp's topic in Akron Zips Football
sadly, I wouldn't put money on the Zips to cover, not that it's impossible. The over/under is 58.5 and I'll be tempted to take the over. I figure Tosu will get their 50 points at least (they'll want a fast start this season considering how their 2023 season ended)... the key will be for the Zips to get in the end zone at least once and make a field goal or two. -
Looks like only Georgetown did from the BE.
-
I think we will be improved enough that we won't lose to all of OU, BG, WMU, EMU and NIU. Glad we don't play the RedBricks. Rockets at Infocision Nov. 26 for an ESPN Maction matchup with a chance for the Zips to go bowling.

I'm just surprised the other ADs are confused about that.
-
Because building a new indoor practice facility and 30K on-campus stadium indicates a lack of football financial priority..

Basketball practice facility (and more) coming

It's nice they extended that graciousness to Huggins; I hope he's finding a better path forward for himself. -

What we need now is a co-branded Akron Zips/Amex credit card with 5x rewards points on all Zips-related purchases, 80,000 bonus points for spending $3,000 in the first six months and your choice of Zips logo designs on the card.

I can't see California allowing their schools to engage in NIL caps. B10 decision-making has to go through Gov. Newsome and the CA legislature now.

Really hoping these guys can get to the QB a few times at Tosu. And Rutgers. And USC. -
Position Preview (and updates) - Offensive Line

Thanks. Would you say we're in at least 2.5 ⭐ range with the current crop of OL?
