I would expect them to be at will call. In my experience, they always have been.

Great form! I can't wait to listen over the internet on 1350. I really hope there is a much bigger crowd than there was for the WVU game! GO ZIPS! My prediction: 3-1 Zips, and bring on Cal-Berkley.

So when is this story going to break? Can't be soon enough so that I can see TCU slide into the #2 spot!

I enjoy following the rifle team because it is great to see UA getting the best of big name schools like OSWho, Purdue, and West Virginia. Rifle also lays claim to one of our few National Championships. I love the tradition. Keep up the great shooting!

Or he decides that building a long-running national soccer dynasty in Akron, Ohio, is a more impressive career accomplishment than anything he or any other coach could accomplish at one of the "name" schools where everyone automatically expects success. +1. Building a soccer dynasty at UA is a true legacy. Take notes, Lebron. The only thing worth leaving for is head coach of the USMNT and the World Cup. If he chooses to do so, we should appoint an interim head coach and welcome Coach Porter back with open arms after his international tenure is up.

Sadly, this truism is my main source of optimism. Amen. We can't move to a different conference because then all hope would be gone.

Any more than one is embarrassing. The MAC is a joke on many levels and especially in terms of alumni/fan support. I watched on TV tonight with family who are also alums. The comment from others down the stretch, "typical Zips." We are a good team but didn't come to play tonight. We were pathetically soft around the rim on both sides of the ball especially in the second half. Fortunately, KD's teams improve throughout the season and finish strong (except for last season's CBI).

What is the story with SMU, Blue & Gold? I bet things like this happen much more often than anyone would expect. Could Auburn leaving the SEC trigger another conference shakedown?

I heard Martin was only considering resignation and was consulting a friend via text but sent it to the wrong person. He ultimately resigned to save face from such an embarrassing mistake and a seemingly inevitable outcome. I wish iCoach would do us all a favor and fall on his own sword.

I heard Notre Dame's Director of Game Tape is looking for a new position. He has no head coaching experience and has never been a player himself, but man, you should see how this guy edits tape! And he's from Notre Dame, so he'd surely be successful in the MAC.

Just like we did.

We won 3-2. Two late goals (<20 min left) from WVU, and they were pushing hard at the end. No way we should have let them back in it. We are more vulnerable than I thought. Not sure why the defense isn't as solid as last year. Afterall, the roster is pretty much unchanged.

And Michigan and Penn State both won.

Agreed. The standards for this program couldn't possibly be any higher. I love being in other parts of the country and/or on interviews and bragging about how good the program is. Great job, Coach Porter. You make me proud to be an alum.

Last I saw them, we beat tWVU 5-0 on a snow covered Lee Jackson Field in the NCAA Tournament (circa 2004). I expcect WVU to be respectable, but we should have no problem in taking care of business.

iCoach is the loser.

The MAC is getting killed in the OOC so far this season. No way we get an at-large bid. Even with a 23/24-X record, our RPI will be too low based on RPI from our conference schedule.

We gave them all they could handle. We played hard all game and a lot of our guys stepped up. No way UD would want to come to the JAR next year. The deciding play was the traveling call on the hit three pointer at the end. I am just waiting for that signature win on our tournament card. It will happen, I just hope it is soon (i.e. this season).

Jekyll and Hyde.

We're fine. Keep playing hard!

If you are KD, when do you bring Z back in? I'd say the 3 minute mark provided it stays close because OT is a strong possibility.

Win or lose, this is a great college basketball game...even for the casual fan or sports junky. I want the big W though! GO ZIPS.

Can you say, SNIPERS?

Keep in mind that this is Dayton's drought and we only just tied the game. To sustain another run from them or another drought from us, we need to build a lead and run some clock now.

McNees! There is that senior leadership I was inquiring about at halftime! Back in this one. OUCH on Zeke's 4th foul. To be good versus really good this year, we need to succeed without him on the floor. No better time to learn that than now.
