  1. I'm making a pledge never to mention DWI or OWI in the future. The excitement about Zip's football just keeps building and building.
  2. I don't have the app. Did it mention whether the Zips will open in a man-to-man or Zone?
  3. OK, I give. How will not playing at UB cut down on ass freezing between the parking deck and the JAR??
  4. In 1981, Dave Rimington was listed at 6'3" and 275. He turned out to be a pretty decent center. And this despite the fact that his reported height was exaggerated by about 3".
  5. Note that they did not say they were not going to pick the Big 12 almost clean. At least one person, Bob Huggins, will be happy when the Mountaineers become an ACC member. He was/is not a fan of the travel required to play Big 12 conference away games.
  6. Liar, liar; pants on fire. During the announcement yesterday of the alliance between the ACC, Big 10 and Pac-12, Big Ten commissioner, Kevin Warren, pushed back on the insinuation that the SEC’s addition of Oklahoma and Texas from the Big 12 triggered the alliance. And he did so with a straight face! It’s possible he was just conducting a scientific experiment; testing the stupidity level of the crowd. To their credit, nobody in the audience broke into hysterical laughter.
  7. Based on the current consensus spread and over/under, the experts are predicting kind of a low scoring blowout. Personally, I predict a 14 point Zips win. How many points will the zips score? https://www.vegasinsider.com/college-football/odds/las-vegas/?s=2383
  8. I just hope we don't get put on double secret probation.
  9. Now you have hurt my feelings. For the record; neither of my vehicles is crap colored; one is white the other is black, and it would actually be a physical impossibility for me to drive down I-71 toward Columbus. Go Zips!!!!!!!!
  10. Drop that to $5, make it a 50 yard line seat, pay for my transportation both ways, and throw in a $20 food voucher and I am there for any Saturday game..
  11. I can't locate a single mention of him on the ULM web site!!
  12. It's hard to believe he could lose a game when he's pitching to Wright State product Sean Murphy.
  13. Duh. Don't know how I missed that. Looks like the standard bunny parade visiting the JAR this season.
  14. Haven't seen the Zips schedule for this season, but Wright State released their OOC schedule and the Zips are slated to play at Wright State on December 15. Good news For the Zips is two-time Horizon League player of the year, Loudon Love, is gone having elected to play ball in France. Bad news is the Raiders are still loaded.
  15. Yes. Many people from Akron visit the NFL Hall of Fame.
  16. It would also be helpful if every other team in the MAC is worse this season than they were last season.
  17. You have never heard of the Pioneers!!!! Their men's basketball team has to be one of the top 10 programs in the Pittsburgh area (and no, not because there are only 10 schools in the area; there are way more than 10).
  18. Now I kind of believe. I haven't been this excited since I saw the name Ryan Bain show up on the Akron roster.
  19. I only see two OOC home games. In fact, the first third of the season doesn't include any of the games from the second half of the schedule. It shouldn't be tough to sell 5,000 season tickets for less than $1,000,000. Hell, if they get $90,000 I think they would be doing good. I agree with your point.
  20. Are you certain it's not lingering effects of the flu pandemic of 1918?
  21. Further evidence that my assertion that Colorado will not leave the Big 12 for the PAC 12 is the absolute truth. Maybe if I had said Michigan State will not leave the MAC to join the Big 10 more people would have got it...............................nah.
  22. There is no way Colorado will leave the Big 12 for the PAC 12. For that matter, there is no way Colorado is leaving the Big 12 for any conference. My guess is Kansas and Iowa State will join the Big 10. Both are AAU members; both would make a reasonable travel partner - Kansas for Nebraska and Iowa State for Iowa.
  23. The video that is about a third of the way down the link you provided is incredibly funny.
  24. Dateline January 20, 2152 Washington, D.C. Federal authorities today ruled that the Behemoth League, comprised of all sixty-four Big Time (formerly D1) college football teams except Notre Dame, constitute an illegal monopoly and ordered it dissolved just like they did with the phone company last century. Officials at the Justice Department recommend a return to conference affiliations that existed in 1970, but are giving schools twelve months to institute their own plan. Unidentified administrators at several universities, who spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to do so, stated that the break-up of the Behemoth League could bankrupt their school. Behemoth Commissioner Kevin Warren Jr. didn't offer much specific insight into what the Behemoth League's response might be, but acknowledged that college football was on the brink of some massive changes.
