Outcoached. We were the better team, OU made adjustments, and we looked like crap the rest of the way. Injuries or not, this game should've been ours. The amount of times we put the ball on the ground in a game is alarming. That's basic fundamentals that starts with an emphasis from the coaches.

Akron is by far the better team. The early turnover in the redzone is the difference between this being a 17-3 game and a 10-3 game. Really impressed with Irons yet again, and the play-calling has been pretty solid.

I didn't realize Trimble shot that well.

Why is the camera positioned at the 25 yard line?

"You're watching College Football on ESPN. It's Akron University..." We're off to a fantastic start...

I agree they'll score. Our guards & wingers are mainly slashers/people who can get to the hoop, and we have a large front court. At some point, we're going to have to make jump shots. Who will be our shooter(s)?

I think this will prove to be spot-freaking-on. The depth on this team is pretty incredible, considering the state of the program when Groce took over. Being able to bring Wynn, Tribble, Clarke, and Bandaogo off the bench is massive - that's two guards and a winger with solid size and experience. I think Castaneda will be the key to the team's success this year. We needed someone to replace LCJ as the floor general, and from what I've seen out of Castaneda, he's the perfect guy to do it. Biggest questions for me... 1) Does Freeman replicate last year's unbelievable individual production? 2) Do we get much-needed outside scoring from either of the incoming freshman guards - Johnson and/or Mitchell? 3) What seed will we be in the NCAA Tournament?

Holding his arms how he is, with the biceps pressed against his sides a bit, gives a broader/bulkier/more built appearance. Love the uniforms. I feel like Akron finally figured out the right hue and combination of Blue & Gold, unlike our *gag* friends to the east that use their "gold" as a hydration level measurement (pee yellow).

We were up 7-0 on THE Ohio A&M. Obviously, that directly correlates to a blowout of the BFE Kittens. 24-3. Akron. Go Zips.

Going up 7-0 on the Suckeyes is a new low for tOSUcks. They should be embarrassed. We made one of their players quit. We held them to under 60. DJ Irons will be just fine in the MAC at QB. To quote Pat Shurmur... We battled... Progress...

We might as well not run the ball. We're not going to accomplish squat on the ground this game.

Nobody is stopping Henderson. That kid is a stud. I'm really impressed with our pass defense.

HOLY EFFING BRUTUS TURDS! TOUCHDOWN AKRON!

Ohio State sucks really bad this year.

To quote Carl Spackler... "Don't mind this. This is doctor's orders." Just read a scouting report on Kyle McCord. He's a pro-style QB like Joe Burrow. When he transfers out of the QB-killer OSUcks program before winning a National Title with a SEC school and getting drafted #1 overall, we can proudly say we were his first ass-whooping.

The uncalled PI/Defensive Holding in the endzone on that final play is one of the biggest screw jobs I've ever witnessed in sports. ________________________________________________________________________ May I ask a silly question? Why, as a university with all sorts of financial trouble, do we eat into the budget by going down to CBus a night early for a 7:30pm game on Saturday?

How many years of eligibility does Irons have after this year? I really like him. He could be a really special MAC QB if given enough time/talent around him. I like our WR corps. A nice big body would compliment them well. Our RBs run very hard. Ball security is an issue, though. Defensively, at least we have Bubba. Bottom line: this had to be a convincing win and it wasn't.

Pillow Fight of the Week next week?

3Q and Bryant is still in this game. Arth, this is embarrassing.

I heard @LZIp volunteered as tribute. I didn't know he cared so much about @Blue & Gold. Here was a live look at the courageous moment...

Hard to be perfect. Damn.

Is that stat keeper getting the styles of play mixed up with the 8-3 foul margin? I've never seen an OSUcks soccer team (or any Big Ten team, really) NOT have an aggressive, foul-heavy style of play.

Another note regarding B10Network+... Games against Penn State (Oct 13th) and Michigan (Oct 18th) are not on the B10Network+ schedule. Also not sure how to continue with the subscription for strictly soccer, as the "Select Pass" button disappears upon selecting Soccer. I emailed their support staff, but am not holding my breath for a quick response. I'm assuming most of the Big Ten are too busy getting their panties in a twist over the Urban-to-USC rumors and how that affects their partnership with the Pac12. The rest are scrambling to figure out which team gives them the best odds of getting into the College Football Playoff after OSUcks embarrassing loss to Oregon this past weekend, when the Suckeyes got their nuts "quacked".

Lots of respect aimed at Akron with this.

When facing another G5 team that has a nice upset over a P5 school that season, if we win, the joke is always, "Well that means we could beat (insert the aforementioned P5 school here)." I want to say we could beat Rhode Island and Sacred Heart.
