Atrocious play calling - as usual - when Ramart came in. Freshman QB and LONG sideline throws that are easily jumped were consistently called. Disappointing finish after a strong comeback.

AMAZING! TOUCHDOWN! LET'S GO ZIPS!

HOLY CRAP! LET'S GO ZIPS!

Milwee and our DC swapped places for Halloween.

Amazing. Play calls designed for the QB to focus on strictly throwing the ball, work. Great drive.

I'm not surprised NIU is coming out strong. I work near the Hilton Akron/Fairlawn, where our opponents stay. On our afternoon walk, we walked through the hotel to avoid the rain. Overheard a group of their plays talking. Player 1: "Is Bowden still their coach?" Player 2: "Yes." Player 1: "And Milwee is their OC?" Player 3: "Yep." Player 1: "Can you say bowl eligible?" Kidding, but when your offense comes out on the first drive and forgets their man cards in the locker room, it sets the tone for the game, including the defense.

I would love to see Milwee's face after Northern Illinois just successfully picked up a 1st down on 2nd & 9. I'm sure he's shocked there's a play out there that will obtain the yard of gain...

Maybe Milwee is using his play calls to signal to us that he wants to be fired...

What the hell play call was that? 3rd and semi-long, and you read-option to the RB for a short gain? I. Hate. This. Offense.

That's right about where I'd have them ranked pre-season, too. Side note: Nevada is 6th on the list, Clemson 24th, and Marshall 65th. There are also several other teams we could play in the Cayman Islands that are ranked nicely on the list.

When he took over, Bowden's philosophy was... Year One: Lose Big (in hindsight, this should never be part of any coach's philosophy) Year Two: Lose Small Year Three: Win Small Year Four: Win Big We're in year 6, and are both losing big and winning small. So not winning "by the margin some deem worthy" is a very valid reason to complain when the expectations were set by our own HC.

Imagine how good we would be with an actual offense... This defense is fantastic. They have to go away from Kato. I have no idea what the justification is behind playing him over Ramart. On top of that, Milwee does a great job of magnifying Kato's flaws with atrocious play calls, including down-the-sideline throws that require pinpoint accuracy, which Kato doesn't have. Why we don't throw over the middle more is beyond me. I'm with a previous poster - Bowden either gets rid of Milwee, or they go together.

I'd agree with this in most any other case, but my biggest beef is Duquesne showcasing its brand to the recruits in our area, especially when they aren't going to be playing us.

World Series Champions in 1990 after sweeping the A's. Sabo was an ASG starter that year. He played for a couple stinkers, but I wouldn't say the Reds are why he would know what a bad program is.

Is that Latin for Villanova?

*Reds Hall of Famer. He is not in the Baseball Hall of Fame (Cooperstown).

Awesome hire. Name recognition and attention to a program that needs it. All we need Sabo to do is build us a foundation. You can't be a stepping stone without a strong foundation to step on. What does his IMG Academy connection mean for recruiting?

Groce gets it. What he emphasizes is what winners focus on and do.

I am vehemently against paying college athletes, and this is exactly the alternative route that needs to be offered.

Can't still sucks because THEY ARE... KENT STATE, and are proud of that perpetual failure.

Sticking true to their Transfer U nickname. Pretty good landing spot for Parrish. It's unfortunate it didn't work out here, but I think it's ultimately for the best.

Aesthetics aside, we were "ranked" during the period we wore those and received a ton of media attention (relatively speaking). Do not speak ill of the lucky...

Dear Football Gods, What Dr. Z meant to say was POUND THE BALL, BUT PLEASE TEAR THE DELAYED HAND-OFF PLAY OUT OF MILWEE'S PLAYBOOK. Thank you. Sincerely, ZipsNation

Today? The body language on our offense is atrocious, and it's starting to leak into the defense...
