  1. Exactly! I knew the ball was down near WMU's goal so thought WMU's goalie must have made a great save. 😂
  2. Take the W!!! Sounds like a nice contingent of Zips fans were at the game!
  3. Neither team has had many SOG.
  4. WMU really seems to be outplaying us this half but still 1-0 good guys.
  5. Listen to that wind 😳
  6. I've seen that highlight video on youtube, but I sure with I could find the entire game somewhere. What's missing entirely from the highlight video was half the fun of the game: the defense we played on KSUcks all night long... and especially Carry. We turned him over I don't know how many times.
  7. Agreed. But I'm also predicting that the beginning of the season will be rocky (in typical Akron fashion) as we get accustomed to playing without Ali & Dawson.
  8. @Section210Zip Yes! Walsh Jesuit's John Mackey. I had forgotten about him. He was TOUGH!
  9. Agreed. I can't believe how bad our defense is. There's no excuse for it. Victor Jones & Zach Morton should be top MAC DE's. Curtis Harper & Kyle Thomas seem to be pretty good DT's. Add in Opening Day starter Logan Hawkins & Ravontae Holt for depth. Bubba is one of the better LB's in the MAC & place either Boateng or Terry beside him & that's a more-than-serviceable LB crew. No one in the MAC should be running the ball on us. Especially like OU just did. No excuse. Our defensive backfield is a problem. But with that front 6 we should be stuffing the run & getting more QB pressure than we are to take pressure of our below average DB crew. Let me just say that I love #24 Darrien Lewis... and #16 Nate Thompson has stepped up his game. But... Jaylen Kelly-Powell seems like a great young man but he's never impressed me much at S, and two transfers that I thought were going to make a dramatic impact this year, CB Cam Threatt and S KJ Martin, have been... umm,... underwhelming. I can't get down on #28 Tyson Durant because one, he's a local product, and two, he's a former walk-on. If a former walk-on is the best we can field, then... I can't get down on Durant. Hooks is another disappointment. He's a physical specimen but teams have been picking on him for years. I remember a game at UMass a few years ago where the UMass receiver out-fought hooks for a TD catch. The UMass-homer announcers said UMass players hadn't been able to out-athlete teams before so they were glad to see that. Idk, I digress.
  10. Thank you for the updates, @TennZip!
  11. TD!!! As poorly as the D has played I can’t believe we’re still in this game. 28-20 OU
  12. Yes. The muff was one one time mental error. This defense is consistently bad.
  13. 3:31 till halftime & Roueke just threw his first incompletion
  14. I hurried home to watch this?
