3rd&twenty

I'm late on this, but I assume it said Akron U? If so, someone's been listening.

Does it seem like our offensive game “plan” is to not give anything away for next week?

Ah, skip it. That's what I'll be doing the next 2 Tuesdays. The Zips are more important. I think.

I'm actually a boomer. Tail end, or overlap, but basically, an evil, middle-aged white guy

It just makes me feel all warm inside to know that I, as a white, middle-aged male, am the root cause of all of this country's ills.

We blow more

Hey, I grew up in one of those hick towns in the middle of B.F.E., and let me tell you buddy… never mind, there IS nothing to do there. That's why I moved to Akron. I will make the trip, though, because I grew up a Penn State fan and I can stay with my parents. In the middle of B.F.E.

Well then, take it to the bank.

GT has more to say in this column than he ever does in the ABJ. http://www.post-gazette.com/sports/duquesne/2017/03/29/duquesne-coaching-search-keith-dambrot-akron-lebron-james/stories/201703280156?pgpageversion=pgevoke

No, since he failed to mention Boals was on KD's staff before going to OSU.

http://footballscoop.com/news/mountain-west-leave-tv-online-only/ Could something like this be in the MACs future? Would beat that crappy schedule that the entire conference will have this coming season.

I would have to respectfully disagree with this. I usually sit pretty close to the floor, by the Rowdies end. During the last few games, I noticed the majority of the kids in that section were constantly on their phones or otherwise engaged in talk amongst themselves. Basically not paying attention to the game. At the BSU game, there were about 4 or 5 guys who did make noise, harass officials and opposing players and actually were pretty fun to watch. The rest of them sat there looking like they were at a funeral or something. Someone has a big head of Big Dog and not once was it displayed. All that, plus the much older guys who sat there on their hands the whole time, left me quite a bit disappointed.

As much as I've liked Zeke and Big Dog, I'm going with Jeremiah, simply because no one ever got all up in his grill without paying the price

I think it might be on Fox Sports 1, or regular Fox. I remember seeing it displayed during a football game this past weekend.

I'm a lot concerned. I didn't watch the entire game last night, but the times I did watch, I saw a much less talented team playing with heart and fire, something that I have really not seen too much of from the Zips this year.

Glad I won't be there to witness it

I haven't heard any of these rumors but I was told by several people that he does not have an injury. He has shoulder pain but as I heard, it's pretty much in his head.

They may have them at Center Ice in N. Canton where the Zips play. I don't know, I don't play down there any more.

That's some pretty flashy stuff, but I want a Zips cycling jersey:)

4 hour games are a huge problem, but it's definitely NOT the biggest obstacle. The impression in Akron, as well as other MAC schools, is that it is not "big time" college football, like OSU. The average fan (heck, even a lot of students) thinks we're in a lower division than B1G, etc. So, it really doesn't matter if we have the #23 ranked team coming in on Saturday, we're still not big time and neither is WMU (in the minds of Joe Akron).

I don't know about those NC people, but I grew up in the Ap-uh-LAY-shun mountains of Pennsylvania.

Geisen Haus is decent, if you like German food. Right off Portage near 77. Canton Brewing is also not bad.

It is beautiful in that he just seems to loft it so effortlessly. Never seems like he has to rear back and really heave it. And yes, he decision-making this year has improved a great deal.

That's great! And they can start "doing those little things that no one knows about" by cutting down on the stupid penalties. Make the play, get up and walk away.
