  1. Every time I see those hats I think the A looks juuuuuust a little too big.
  2. Great review! Thank you for posting!
  3. Fantastic preview. They know the Zips better than most Zips fans 😳
  4. 💪💪
  5. Was anyone here even the least bit surprised we missed that?
  6. 💪💪
  7. I'm feeling pretty discouraged. We don't have a QB & can't drive the football. We & the Browns look to be in identical situations - other than QB play we've got a great team. Unfortunately, QB is the most important single position in all of sports.
  8. My friend, who knows much more soccer than me, said Akron passed on a handful of opportunities for shots. Another guy in the crowd shouted a few times, "Stop playing hot potato (with the ball) and shoot!" We controlled 99% of that match. It's a shame we couldn't punch one in.
  9. And Kentucky & Indiana are exactly the type of beatable P5 teams we should be scheduling... but we don't have the team to take advantage of it 😩
  10. I bit the bullet for it. If you like Akron Soccer then it's worth $30/month. I'm not able to make all the matches... and often simply choose not to attend in person when the weather turns... so it's nice to be able to not miss the action. The audio is only Chad Welker commentating... he does a better job than I would... but... it's underwhelming. The video is good. I'm definitely going to drop the subscription at the end of the season & then pick it up again next year.
  11. Not yet. Listening to pregame show on 640 WHLO & they don't know either. Joe Dunn thinks we should go with DJ & go with Undercuffler only if need be.
  12. On X I noticed that OL Jordan Hale-Frater (sp?) is also at JUCO.
  13. In addition, I don't believe we won the MAC since 2018. That's not at all acceptable. It is right to put some heat on the program; that's what men do. We don't thrive when we're coddled. We thrive when healthy pressure is applied. @fknbuflobo (along with @TennZip )are the two posters which make this particular forum worth visiting and they're as big of Zips fans as anyone on earth. @fknbuflobo wants what is best for the program and we have slipped from our once high standard. This is unacceptable to anyone who truly cares. Having said that... I'm glad we're up to #3 in the nation! 😂🤘🤘
  14. I thrilled with our LB play. After losing Bubba I thought it'd take our youngins a handful of games to get up to speed. No way. Our LB's are STUDS!
  15. Post #1 updated to include addition of transfer OL Laurence Seymore.
  16. That's amazing. I saw 3 times he was down on his knees but I thought he got his bell rung or something... I was worried he was banged up... didn't know he was puking. Crazy! Rock on! ✊🤘
  17. Can you elaborate on this? Nate Williams? Tyler Williams? Was one of them hurt? And, speaking of OL... Kamari Landers had to go to JUCO for a year but plans to return to UA as soon as he is able.
  18. This is where I find myself this a.m. I was underwhelmed last night & still feel it this a.m. We were LUCKY to beat an FCS opponent. I fear it's going to be another long season. On top of that, except for the final minute of the 1st and and final minute of the 2nd half, last night's game was B-O-R-I-N-G. For years I've been taking guys to games just hoping against hope to make some new Akron fans and for years I've often felt guilty for subjecting my friends to the stuff. Last night was yet another occurrence. Ugh. Before the 2nd half started one of my friends - who loves him some football - said, "This feels like a looooooong game. Even halftime felt long." It simply wasn't much fun. Being a Zips fan ain't for wimps.
