I know exactly how I'm going to celebrate this milestone.

It's Raining Threes! ☔️

Being there, I can't see how your scenario would have been any more "fun." The real scenario was fun, and unbelievably memorable. One of the things I enjoy about sports, is that you never know when your going to watch a "historic" game. Most games are pretty normal, but once in awhile you get Leftwhich carried down the field, or a wagon wheel game in a snow storm that sends your team to a conference championship game. Fans are still discussing a decade later. It was also highlighted on SportsCenter because of the extreme weather conditions. You can watch 100 more college football games, and not see a game played like that one.

Zips favored by three. The RedHawks are 9-7 at home, 4-4 against MAC opponents. Three players are scoring in double figures, including Eric Washington (14.7 ppg), Geovonie McKnight (10.9 ppg) and Will Sullivan (10.5 ppg). Sullivan is the team's leading rebounder (4.6 rpg).A victory would snap a two-game losing streak for the Zips against the RedHawks. Akron is 17-0 this season when leading with 5:00 to go in a game. An Akron win would keep the Zips in the running for one of the top four seeds in next week's MAC Tournament. More at Go Zips dot com.

I wish I was getting the paycheck to do the name "study", or the redesign on the Browns logo.

I'll wait until after the spring game to guess at a few early games. It's impossible for me to make any kind of educated guess at this juncture. I've never been a fan of guessing an outcome of a game in October/November/December before the season starts, unless you can tell me all the starting lineups, what team beat what team earlier, and injury lists. I have to see both teams play, to have any kind of opinion. I'm no Phil Steele. If I have to guess now, I'll second LZip, and say we go undefeated. But I really don't think we will get into the College Football Playoff for the National Championship.

Boykins was very entertaining and talented, I don't think I missed a game of his at the JAR. He made freakish moves on the floor that defied his size. There was no defense for his antics at times. Being a Akron alumnus, he drove me nuts, but I eventually became a fan. Sports Illustrated did a spread on him once which included this photo. His senior year, he beat Duke in the NCAA tournament, and was second in the nation in scoring. If Antino can develop half of Boykins talent, he will do very well in today's MAC. Boykin's cheated at EMU though, he played 35+ minutes a game. I don't know how it happens, but I would love to play in a league again that has NBA talent like Boykins, Szczerbiak, Trent, Daniels and Wells. It's also reported that Boykins benched 315, can Antino? Oh, and btw, Earl is from Cleveland (Central Catholic). He is currently a head coach at a Colorado high school. Here's a cool image when Earl played in the NBA. Check out his feet.

Yes I do, I think there were hundreds there. I remember the last two guys in the tailgate lot too. I wish I had a 14 mm lens and took a bunch of photos that day. I could have had some dramatic images for the ages. This shot was taken during the game.

Dri at the Portage County game.

Tressel U™, with a huuuuuge statue for his flock.

He is in the right spot on the floor most of the time, so he puts his teammates in opportunistic offensive situations. I hope he can stay healthy. The more DI4, the better the Zips chances of advancing in the mac tournament. I just wish we had two more that worked on offense the way he does.

Didn't write that I would use that song, because I wouldn't. I would have to storyboard it to figure out which song would be appropriate, but more than likely it would be something that charted from them.

EA writes about KD in the PD "We've had trouble closing games, for whatever reason," Dambrot said after the Zips played well at Buffalo, only to lose in the final minutes. The same thing has happened with others this week alone, including the Rockets and Ken+, both with critical setbacks coming down the stretch.

Agreed.

Ahhhh, someone who gets it. "Class organization"...you the man Dan!

Personally I would have went with one of the few good rock bands left on this planet now a days. Just my opinion though.

Nice job. Started better than it finished. The end seemed to drift on the concept. Never heard of O.A.R., but the song seems used in other sporting venues.

Just thought you might enjoy reading since it was in a previous discussion.

Sadly, I think the above post helps prove my point. Todays Yahoo Sports Headline: Interpretive Dance: Little giant Northern Iowa a legit Final Four contender

I haven't seen an official announcement, but from years passed I'll guess April 18th.

19 or 20 wins, if neither meant a bid to a tournament, what is the difference? I see zero benefit for the team. I get that it's fun for a few fans to try to justify some of their arguments, but that's about it. Postseason experience for this young(er) team would be very beneficial. It's just too bad it would be without Noah. With the way this team shoots, I hold little hope for post season success. I would love to be proven wrong. I saw a banner for the MAC tourney during an outside shot last night during the Cavs game. That got my blood pumping. If no type of tournament were involved, one could argue that 19 wins may actually be better than 20 for the future success of this team and staff. It might place a sense of urgency around the program, as opposed to complacency that it seems to be mired in. Doubt it, but it's possible.

If they get the playing time.
