Akron definitively finished with a better record this season than Western Michigan.
Weird. Western had 12 three-star players (Scout.com). It had the 77th-ranked class in the country. ?

Zips Wins - 7 ?
Warren Ball rushing yards - 332 ?
Reception Leaders - Tra’Von 49, Coney 39, Smith 30, and Wolf 28
Defensive sacks - 21?
Notes: Congratulations to the eighteen member that selected seven wins or more. The Zips get five sacks last night to make the over 20 selection good.
@zzx and @Blue & Gold are the only two members to select seven or more wins, with 20 or more sacks, and Warren Ball getting less than 899 yards. Blue & Gold has Wolf leading the Zips in receiving, and zzx has Chapman. It looks as though zzx has a good chance to win with only two games left, but you never know.
PS Manny Morgan now leads the Zips in rushing with 342 yards on the season.

Kent is ranked third in the MAC in passing defense, I can see why, they played excellent pass coverage last night. I wouldn't have waited until this morning to fire Paul Haynes, I would have fired him at halftime. Second worse call I have ever seen at Info giving the ball to your fullback at the end of the half. After the game Gilbert said he, and a few others decided to go sleeveless because the weather was so nice. Loved that comment from a Florida guy. Butler brought out his own turnover chain after his pick (see photos), just, awesome! Jamal Davis played his best game as a Zip last night. Gasser nailed three inside the ten!?!

Odd stat night, Dustin Crum leads the game with 77 yards rushing. Not a single member selected him, so no poll winners. But all Zip fans are winners. See you in Detroit.

We don't have much of a rivalry with NIU because they've been dominant in football while we've been awful, and we've been dominant in basketball while they've been awful.
Every 12 years we beat them in the MAC championship game though. ?

This is the basically the audio to the robocall last night.
There is going to some sort of weather in NEO in late November. For the rest of your life. If that's your excuse, you weren't going in the first place. It's going to be 45 degrees and cloudy with a chance of light rain? That sounds like one of the better forecasts I've seen for a late November game. Good news, it will be 70 degrees and dry on December 2nd for those Zips fans that can't watch your team win the MAC east in 45 degree weather.

Reasonable preview.
I like this summary of what the Zips are doing right: "It’s converting more third down plays than anyone in the MAC, it’s not turning the ball over, and it’s able to come up with just enough late stops to survive."
15 point favorite surprises me a little.
Odds Shark predicts a 31-13 Zips victory.
