Umm, good call.... you pretty much nailed every facet of this sentence.

You know in other years I would agree with you, but I think the talent on this team has become very obvious, I think it would take a major stumble to drop like that in the polls right now. Very few teams are having good years, a lot of them are dropping games they shouldn't. The other remaining undefeated teams (we just reduced that number by one today) have not played the kind of schedule we have. Do you think there is a chance we could have won the Big Ten this year? I certainly do.I don't think there is any doubt we would have won the Big 10 this year. Hands down run the table undefeated in the Big 10 if we were in it. However we will see us play five of the 7 throughout the year so we'll have a really good indication at the end of the year.

As my former coach was fond of saying, "Weather is the great equalizer."Zips hammer the goal all night and finally get one in on a PK.Akron 1OSU 0

I think we need a picture like this for the sold out soccer game tonight too...

Was there any audio on this? How did you know it was Kofi? Didn't show on the Gametracker.I happen to know that w00t was at the game. That's how he knew

Got my tickets finally. Can't wait for Zips soccer!

Has anyone actually received their scarf/season tickets yet? I was told to expect the tickets mid July and still have not gotten them as of today. I plan on calling the athletic office next week if I don't have them by then.

I know that originally many players on the roster were from the local Christian High School CVCA. I think that the mission of the team started out as such, but they have since changed up a bit as far as I can tell. I could be mistaken though. I do believe at some point you were correct though.

I'm confused... what did they say to you? This story seems incomplete.

Yes they are. A couple of years ago they knocked off one of the top-ranked teams in the nation in the first round of the NCAA tourney ... on the road ... in cold weather, out of their element.That night sucked.

Agreed. I was somewhat perplexed by that story.

In reality, those are the reasons people feel he will end up at Dayton. Let's not get carried away, the chances of Payne coming to Akron are slim to none.Actually the probability is now up to 13.04065%Alright, I'll bite... what are you using for the variables in your quadratic equation?

Lock this thread now before it devolves....I like the schedule. My one beef is that we didn't get a "premier" ACC school this year (i.e. UNC, WF, Duke). I'll take Va Tech I suppose though.

Wow, that's pretty in depth. Definitely early, but good to see the Zips getting some love.

Click Me!Good article about incoming Freshman Midfielder Ben Speas. Worth a read for sure.

Thanks for posting. Awesome to see.

LOL!

I'm pretty sure that was a lot of people's thinking toward Zeke as well.Just so you don't get the wrong idea, by dreaming I meant drooling over the possibility. Nothing negative.Though when you put it that way, I don't wanna get my hopes too high either. There's no doubt he'll get to visit a program thats building. (Just have KD, Zeke, and Lebron meet him at the stadium)...Ok now I'm dreaming...Haha, my mistake. I misinterpreted your original writing.. Dreaming about the possibility is a good thing.

I'm pretty sure that was a lot of people's thinking toward Zeke as well.

Threads like this make my day.Blue and Gold... where did you get your quotes there? Did you get that from the "members only" section of the article on rivals?

This topic has degenerated in to oblivion, but it is hilarious. That jalapeno story is priceless.

This just baffled me. There were times when both teams were, say for example, shooting 8-16. One team it had the percentage as 50% and the other team 47%. It was goofy. It cannot be that hard to fix.I never buy concessions there so that is not much of an issue for me, but that cannot be that hard to fix either.

Swiech was not in during a situation for you to see him give up a meaningful basket. When he is in during garbage time chances are the other team is as well. At this point I'm going to have to defer to Dave on this one. It's been rehashed a couple of times. Everyone knows the situation, but we have to trust that the coaches know what's best and leave it at that. Also, let's hope everyone gets better so there is a really good battle for the C position starting next year. Lots of schools would love to have that problem.

There is a good chance by the beginning of next soccer season I will have a Zakuani jersey to wear to the Zips games. I freaking love the Sounders jerseys.
