I agree. the Rubber Bowl could become like a greek ruin. people well stop by and see how we used to do it back in the day. "get in the jet car elroy we're goin to the Rubber Bowl"

Tiers are made up by those ranking magazines. We can't move up unless the state allows us to change our enrollment policy. Toledo has the same problem.We could have all the top programs in the country in every field of study, and we would still be tier 3 because of the open enrollment.And I still will never understand how being open enrollment "helps" our university. Perhaps in 1913, when we were a failing college, but in this day and age it's completely useless. Both Toledo and Akron have stronger programs in engineering and science than most schools in the country, but, like uakronkid said, the open enrollment overshadows everything.I think getting rid of the open enrollment policies and making this school a little more selective would produce many more proud alumni, and consequently, more money to the school. But who am I?thanks for the input guys

I figured this would be the best place to ask this question. does anyone know why Akron doesn't try to move up from a tier 3 school?

home or away?

where did you hear this?

the more I think about this the more I can't help but think of it as a good loss. yeah it's a game we shoulda won and coulda won but this will teach our young team a thing or two about looking past someone in the MAC and that is a lesson I would rather these guys learn in the regular season then in Cleveland

L-O-L-A Lola

Well, if you think it's bad there, you should be in Hawai'i. The governor shut down all schools and told state workers to stay home today, because of a high wind warning! I can't believe what whimps these people are. I had to walk to school through snow up to my waist!triumph this video just fits

I'm gonna go ahead and call dibs on Niki as my beer pong partner. I'll never lose again

also, i did not like the dance team's uniforms. i think they look trashy.here ya go...ehhhhsome things I could live without.

I don't know if you guys saw it but in the simpsons 400th episode a couple of years back they had shot of Can't Brokmen the news guy standing infrong of a weather board and some wrote "Can't sucks" on it. I haven't been able to fing it but if one of you guys could it's rather funny

well then my bad hugo.seeteezip.take it easy on my kin folk I bet you can't buy one gift on christmas that takes care of your mother and your cousin all at the same time

at this rate he might just have his own fat head one day.I think zipseuph meant Fathead™yes I did. thanks for clearing that up.as far as Zeke not getting a big head I must say that it self is impressive. if it was me the good year blimp wouldn't be the only dirigible in Akron.

I'm gonna go ahead and say ityou are not a true zips fan unless you are an OBC mug holder

thanks for the updates Johnnyzip the OBC is a great place and I've had a fun time meeting several of my fellow zipsnationers there. that and they know what a real college is

were those the ones you had to slide stuff across on in order to do math? all in good fun of course.WELCOME TO THE FAMILY GUYS!

I AM PUMPED!!!!!! is it 2009 yet?

I'm also a Zips/Browns fan and I have to agree that I am ready for this football season to die but at the same time I'm ready for next year. (in true Browns fan style )

BAHAHAHAHA! Those bricklayer picketers do some rounds. I saw them in front of the Chipotle construction in hudson. I wonder if the hall pays them as much as the actual laborerswith the same break system. picket for an hour get a 15 minute break

I hope that you are wrong as well. if they do go down I will blame the kitchen staff. it seems like everytime I go there they forget to bring me my food and it comes out cold. (one time burnt and cold) but the bar is AWSOME!! what they need to do is tell Damons to F-off and get someone real to run that kitchenAMEN BROTHER. Actually, I don't feel quite as strongly about the food, but the Damon's aspect certainly doesn't live up to the OBC aspect. Can you imagine combining the overall dealio at Barley House with the fresh-brewed goodness that is OBC? I just got the shivers thinking about it.GO BEER! GO ZIPS! TO HELL WITH THE NCAA!SeeTeeZip, aka OBC Mug #89I just don't like the Barley House on the weekend nights. to much music and stupid people for meI've only been to the BH once and it was on the weekend. I was very unimpressed considering it's an Irish pub and a poorly poured pint of Guinness was $5.75 :blink: I still need to make it out to the OBC. What time do you guys recommend?anytime realy. you see OBC never gets jumpin with people and loud music wich is something I love about it. you can just walk in grab a brew talk smak with some friends play some pool watch a game and not worry about some drunk chick tossing her cookies on your shoes.

You are insane... in the brainsingin in the rain?
