By virtue of being seeded, IU is already in the second round, so they are free to lose to us on Sunday without threatening their streak.

I was wondering the same thing. We have to be ranked/rated higher than Garner-Webb.

It's exciting to be playing IU away this Sunday. Their schedule and results are impressive. Had they not lost early in the Big Ten Tournament, it seems likely they could be top four seed. https://iuhoosiers.com/sports/mens-soccer/schedule Also, our history against IU is abysmal. I'd love to claw another back in the win column. Kudos to their program for having such comprehensive series history available though. https://iuhoosiers.com/sports/msoc/opponent-history/akron/153

This game proves we were deserving of the at-large bid AND the home game.

Hopefully he bags one yet. Sounds like 2/3-0 would be a fair final score.

Will the game be broadcast on the radio? The NCAA gamecast sucks.

It's game day! Let's go Zips!

Isn't it sad that this is what college athletics has become? It's just another free agency market. I wish there were a better system in place to compensate student-athletes.

I was thinking the same thing.

This whole broadcast has been a celebration of Kent's awfulness. I love it!!!

YES!!! If anyone recorded the broadcast, please capture and post this segment.

Commentator: "If there is a stat, there is a pretty good chance that Kent State is the worst at it."

Commentator #1: "This has not been Kent State's night." Commentator #2: "It has not been Kent State's couple of seasons." I LOVE these guys! Can't we just always play on CBSSN?!

Keep punchin' 'em in the mouth! We need the confidence and positive energy.

It's always a good feeling to be laying waste to a rival early in the third quarter. There's still nearly a whole half of pounding Kent left!

The commentators and quality of the broadcast are actually much better than those on ESPN. As a viewer, I am thrilled, but this likely comes at the expense of CBSSN not generally having the subscribers/viewership as ESPN.

"Kent Read, Kent Write" in our student section getting some exposure and the announcers enjoying it on the broadcast...I love it!

KS37 looks to be a really good kicker. Wish we had him or someone like him a few years ago against Indiana...it's amazing what that game could have meant for us, especially considering where IU is as a program right now.

Great turn around catch by Norton, and Finley looks sharp. Lots of good catches by our WR's in general. Maybe this is the game we look back on and say it is when everything gelled for our offense? Let's hope so.

Our lack of pressure on the QB is allowing these deep open routes and accurate passes.

Nationally, no one cares. These commentators may make this game vaguely interesting to a barstool bum looking for a game to watch though.

Other than mispronouncing "Buchtel" during the intro segment, the booth commentators are pretty good. They are knowledgeable and elevate the game, which is impressive for a match up of two of the worst teams in the country.

Fwiw, three of four studio pundits on CBSSN picked Kent to win. Good to see we are proving them wrong thus far, despite the missed coverage on Kent's long TD.

Let's make it 20!!! It's 5:19 PM EST, and...

I was at that game! It was circa 2004. It was so much fun, and a great memory of my time as a student.
