Press conference notes.
• We had no idea Jackson was going to play. We didn't get the Jackson that could run.
• Deltron has a nice little side step. He has explosive plays. He makes bigger plays off the same things we have been calling. You say what's the difference in the run game, it's him.
• Tommy is efficient
• Kevin Gladney got the game ball for his TD catch
• Alvin is okay for this week.
• Our depth is getting better. Guiser and Alvin out, able to fill in with quality depth.
• Penalties continue to get better. We emphasized it more than I have ever done in my life.

Coach Bowden, "Tommy Woodson was 7 for 12 on third downs. He was on fire."
Coach Bowden, "We don't do much transfer recruiting now a days"
Nice piece on double D.

After answering 9 in a row (ZN unofficial record), @Lee Adams answers scare me. ?☠️?
Nothing against you Lee, but I hope your amazing streak comes to an end.

Here is the play I speak of. Watch Ritz pull and lead the way. I would like to see a few more of these Tuesday.

The Bobcats average over 40 a game and the Zips are around 20. Unless the OC lets Woodson throw, I don't see how we can keep up. Especially with zero run game.
Our last three games on the schedule will be in bad weather, I think the Zips will have to improve their run game to be successful this month. I like what I saw at the end of the game last week. I thought Sands was able to take advantage of the defense over pursuing. Including next week, it will be six games without Ball, and he will still be the Zips leading rusher through mid November. I remember earlier in the season pulling the Guard and running counters through that hole, I don't recall seeing that recently. I thought that was a successful play that was helping to move the chains. Akron is ranked 19th in the country in Red Zone Defense, I'm not overly worried about the Bobcats offensive drives.

Thomas Woodson earned Mid-American Conference Player of the Week honors for the East Division, the league announced on Monday. Woodson took home Offensive Player of the Week honors, while Gasser was named Specialist of the Week. In Akron’s 21-20 win over Buffalo, Woodson went 21-of-29 for a season-high 286 yards and three touchdowns.
Woodson moved into second place on the Akron career list with 6,829 passing yards
Woodson is also No. 2 in career passing touchdowns (53).

Congrats to only 11 members who predicted Thomas Woodson to start the most games for the Zips this year.

Speaking of Featherstone, Penn Hills grad Featherstone gains larger role at Akron
"...In the expanded role, where Featherstone is splitting series with junior Jordan George, the Penn Hills product collected a career-high 11 tackles, including seven solo, in a 22-17 loss at Troy on Sept. 23..."
Hard to tell the snap counts, but Shawn was all over the field Saturday. Impressive if 2 and 7 are splitting time, and were the leading tacklers Saturday!?!? A product of Buffalo chucking the ball around 50 times on rainy day, but still impressive. From my perspective (which is tough sometimes, especially with weather) other than Featherstone, I thought Brian Bell was seeing the field very well.

Zips Wins - 5
Warren Ball rushing yards - 332 ?
Reception Leaders - Tra’Von 37, Coney 35, Smith 22, and Wolf 19
Defensive sacks - 16
Coney, 7 catches yesterday. Closing the gap....

Fransohn Bickley scores the first TD (someone not listed), Zips score 21, and win by less than 5.
Congratulations to this weeks winners @zipsoutsider @GJGood @ziptrumpet87 ....and @Lee Adams who has won THREE weeks in a row!?! Impressive.

What if we set something like this up? Would it be easier? Someone with knowledge of excel can add the percentages and snap counts automatically.
Then we could compare week to week and notice trends and strategies.
File can be found here if anybody with wants to do it this week.

From @CDMac hard work of information.
45% of the time we were in 10 personnel (last 18 plays)
18% of the time we were in 12 personnel
17% of the time we were in 11 personnel
5% of the time we were in 00 personnel
3% of the time we were in 21 personnel
2% of the time we were in 22 personnel
Snap counts (these are approximate due to the fact you can't see every player on tv without the all 22 view)
82 Austin Wolf = 43 snaps
3 Kwad Smith= 43 snaps
11 AJ Coney= 38 snaps
5 Tra Chapman= 31 snaps
21 Fran Bickley= 22 snaps
15 Nate Stewart= 13 snaps
19 Andre Williams= 11 snaps
17 Anthony Young = 7 snaps
9 Manny Morgan= 39 snaps
7 Van Edwards= 18 snaps
22 Deltron Sands= 5 snaps
36 Kobie Booker= 29 snaps
45 Brandon Junk= 9 snaps

Rodney Coe, back in Seattle, Go Hawks!
Coe had seven tackles including a tackle for a loss in preseason but was not able to secure a final roster spot or a spot on the team's practice squad due to injury. He was waived injured during roster cuts and handed an injury settlement a week later securing his release. Now, the undrafted player out of Akron in 2016 will return; perhaps to help with practice.

Logan Woodside is the ninth rated QB in the country
PS It's a little shocking to me that Mayfield is number one, I saw nothing special when he played the Zips. He obviously improved.

Per Oddsshark:
Drew Anderson QB Shoulder is downgraded to doubtful Saturday vs. Akron
Tyree Jackson QB Knee is downgraded to doubtful Saturday vs. Akron
The State of the MAC: Quarterbacks
Buffalo Bulls: Kyle Vantrease took over in the middle of the 14-13 loss to NIU. Vantrease's offense could not score a touchdown that game, and the freshman followed up by losing his first career start to Miami (OH) 24-14. He will continue to start until Jackson or Anderson returns from injury.

Woe is me over here with the condo in Miami...
Haha, just renting. Other Florida bowl games may work for me as well. Boca would be a pretty easy train ride. St. Petersburg would be a four hour drive, but probably doable. Just win baby!
Game 10—Zips @ Red Hawks

From George's article (above).
“When it comes to someone who seems to make the most plays, which would say which one would eventually garner the most time, if he can get to where he knows what he’s doing …” Bowden said. “Deltron’s kind of moving into that position now.”
It will be interesting to see how many carries he gets Tuesday.
Nice article, I would have liked to see any photo of Deltron included.
PS I wonder if this play was talked about in the film room. I value TW4's shoulder too much to see him running next to 22.
