Just watched Zips Live and coach said they are close to securing a game at Creighton, a tournament in Savanna, and a tournament at UTEP.

He won't be on the bench. Wasn't there during the Tourney either. In fact, he sat behind my group for the BG game.

I know most on this board talk about Akrons RPI but it seems ESPN and probably the selection committee is using BPI. I'm not sure how Akron stacks up in that department but I'm guessing it's not in the 30's.

I keep thinking the same thing. I'm no doctor but why have surgery now? It can't get any worse and he could gut out 10 min a game. I played multiple sports with a torn labrum so I know it can be done. That said all three seniors were fantastic Zips.

They have recently redone the Corner Alley and it's a lot better. Much more of a sportsbar vibe.

What has happened to Noah???? Looks really run down. Jake and Reggie need to find some senior leadership moving forward. They looked lifeless tonight. Except Big Dog

He also said they could offer 100k to a big school and they still wouldn't come here. Even went as far to say WVU won't play in Akron even with the Huggins connection . I also recall him saying they need to get a little creative so that's encouraging. Would love to see some A10 schools here. I'd even consider a 2 for 1 with a lower big ten scool. Problem is I'm not sure what P5 school signs up for a potential loss each year to a MAC school.

Update from sideline reporter. .... he can't put weight on his foot and is getting x-rays on his ankle. They aren't sure exactly what the injury is.

I agree with just about everything you posted. I don't care if Aaron Jackson gives you nothing on O. He provides quickness on D and has enough size to play 10-12 min at the 4 in MAC play. Maybe that sparks Kwan but Im not sure. I was also happy to see Robo and Antino playing separately for most of the game. Antino showed more effort on D today but takes poor angles. Robo just isn't healthy. Right now he is getting beat by any one he gaurds. I haven't paid much attention to his brace in the past but it appeared to me that he's now wearing the larger, restricting brace on his knee. Hope he gets healthier as the year goes by as he's still less than 12 mths removed from his injury.

Those look legit! I love that store.

anyone have a link for the game?

First game I've seen in person. I agree with 01 that Akron's perimeter D is its biggest weakness. I'm am hopeful that this will get better with time as Noah is not close to 100%. He just doesn't have that lateral quickness he had last year. Pat needs more touches to get back into a groove. He seems to be a player that needs confidence to be effective and I haven't seen it since his role change. Antino's 3 ball was huge. Just before he shot it I said this is a situation were he usually launches one. I love that he has that kind of confidence. Not completely knocking Kwan but he looks like he spent very little time in the weight room. He is still getting pushed around and it becomes very obvious against a team like WMU. Again some players just don't like to be muscled up with Reggie being another example of that. Wish Aaron Jackson had a little more to offer on O as he certainly helps on the defensive side of the ball. The team has a lot of talent and I'm excited to see both Ivy and Williams develop throughout league play. You can see that they both think they belong and that is a big step in college. This team could have a bright future!

Where is Xavier ranked? They have to be top ten.

Anyone listening on the radio hear what's up with Pat? Hasn't played hardly in the 2nd half and not sure if he's even on the bench. I agree with Zipgrad about Noah. Really missed in a game like this. Thier guards are legit!

Do not want to start another thread for this but there's an Akron sign on the set of game day. Not for football though....Akron mens golf.

Like many on this board you have the question the WR rotations. Lane and Davis need to be on the field as much as possible. I did like what I saw from Cooper. Sad that Pratt will never become a solid option. His drop was one of many game changing plays. D line played great! Coe was all over the place yesterday and I thought Pittman played well. Also, was Pittman wearing a practice jersey??? The penalty from Marcus was a huge blow. Everyone that sat by me all yelled that he lined up off sides. You can do that and expect to win. Not sure what's up with the O line. They get little push on running plays and their pass protection is now an issue. Why did Williams not play? I figured he was hurt but he can in along with Erikson when the center went down with a knee. Hard to completely blame the coaches for play calling without a breakdown on tape but they have to find a way to make plays inside the 40's. I'm guessing 40% of their drives ended in this area of the field. Still not sold on Woodson. He doesn't make plays when the team needs him. Sad part is that the Zips don't have that guy. To me this is Bowden's greatest shortcoming. Must wins the rest of the way. If the program is to trend up and take the next step they need to finish with 6 wins minimum.

Im guessing Lane was disciplined for something. He didn't play a down in the 1st quarter. Coe also didn't start. Speaking of Coe he's made some nice plays lining up at strong side end today. Game is there for the taking

Late money coming in to knock the line down to 2.5. Do the wise guys lnow something the fans don't? Need a big game from Guiser and Evans in coverage tmw.

Hibbits from CMU is out for the year with an ACL. Same link.

BIG GAME....Who is the player or players who will make the big plays in the big games???? #RizeUp!

Love it! I'm in

They will also have DB from BC available next year.

Woodson playing at a high level today. Lane looks great! Hudley running with a purpose. D needs to make adjustments.
