Can't wait for Aziz to get stronger. The raw ability is there, he's just a little timid at times. Kicking it out 2 feet from the basket instead of going up strong - that will develop.

7 fouls on Buffalo. 14 minutes of bonus time.

2 pt lead with a chance to make it 3! LET'S GO! This is a heck of a coaching job by Groce. He had conviction in the aggressive game plan, let his guys iron out the issues, and trusted that it would eventually come together.

What a weak T.

Segu is awfully annoying. He's like a bra-less DJ Cooper.

Ali Ali figured out how to make a positive impact on this game on the offensive end. 4 pt deficit at the half. I think we'll all take that, given the middle stretch there.

Ok refs. Ok. If anyone knows how to contact the scorers table, tell them to give Freeman the block anyways. Ball doesn't lie. 2 missed free throws off of that garbage foul call.

Nice little run here. Finish the And-1, and let's keep the foot on the gas pedal into the half.

I don't consider Trimble a shooter. He's a streaker.

We have zero shooters on this team. Zero.

Joe Akron - proud of you. Packed house. No Mballa for Buffalo. Their HC is also not there. Akron is without Trimble.

Does anyone know what exactly the roster outlook is for this game? Was the team able to practice much during the 2 week 'Vid hiatus?

Updated. I'll take that BOGO Mickey D's coupon, as I don't think I can personally accomplish the first page of this thread goal. Maybe @akrzips2012 could copy and paste that to his thread-starting comment?

I've been updating this and reposting it every few pages or so. It includes conference experience in their backgrounds. HC: Joe Moorhead; Big East, Big Ten, SEC, Pac12 ST: Allen Tucker; SEC OC: (Moorhead?) QBs: Billy Fessler; Big Ten, SEC RBs: Terry Richardson; Big East, ACC, SEC, NFL WRs: David Gilbertson; AAC, Pac12 TEs: Reno Ferri; ACC, MAC OL: Joel Rodriguez; ACC, CUSA DC: Nick Toth; PAC12, SEC, MWC, CUSA DL: Winston DeLattiboudere; PAC12, CUSA LBs: DBs: Tre' Bell; SEC, ACC

When are we going back to Xi? Toledo at PCCC on Saturday at 2pm. ESPN3. That'll be one to keep an eye on.

Still takes effort for the Vols fans to show up to a meaningless bowl game. Good for them.

I'm excited for this game for the atmosphere. Hoping to be able to make the trip to Rocky Top. This is a fun game and one of the best non-Playoff bowl game atmospheres ever.

Did anyone watch the second half? What changed in the offense? How did it look?

*Postponing. Meaning to be played at a later date, only to be postponed again by the next "variant" (probably). Somehow the medical & virus "experts" we're all supposed to listen to didn't predict/inform these sports leagues of the inevitable surge during flu season. That's why they're so ill-prepared. Never saw this coming... 🙄

It's almost like it's flu season and these kids are in college.

He hasn't been the same since he blew out his knee. Unfortunate, but the truth. He was an All Pro returner with the Rams, and looks like a shell of himself currently.

Live look at NC State's Men's Basketball Coach... (a bit of a stretch, but I will find any excuse in the book to share this classic video of our former DC)

His interview of JoeMo was awesome. University of Akron fight song to start and finish the interview, full of enthusiasm, and Anthony Lima even stated how big of a hire this is. Akron should really considering partnering with Ken to help promote the University a bit more. He has a solid audience base locally and nationally, and is an ACTUAL AKRON FAN. He hates OSUcks.

If we're not, Groce has some 'splaining to do.

Some Oregon fans on Twitter thought JoeMo sucked. It's nice to see Twitter still allows opinion in some areas, no matter how stupid the opinion may seem. Some of JoeMo's transfer commits so far have backgrounds that included All-America/Conference Academic awards. He seems to be targeting talent, intelligence, and good natured kids. I read an article about his situation, which included some questioning what was going on with the program as a whole, as there was additional upper-echelon talent was not seeing the field. I'd be shocked if the "distraction" label is as true as some WVU fans claim.
