ksu sucks

I agree, the coverage is great. And Andy is right on the money. Any success in the post season in good for the MAC, even if it's your rival. I hate the bobkittens as much as anybody, but when they beat Georgetown it brought a LOT of publicity to the MAC.

That's amazing. Sheen is not alone. http://www.hustlebelt.com/2011/3/17/205664...ys-a-few-people

A flash is what loses to a zip. A zip is what beats a flash. It's really that simple.

Exactly. I know it's our rival, but we should really be rooting for the MAC in the post season. The more wins the MAC can garner, the better off the Akron program will be in the future. It's going to be Can't/Akron and a few other teams for the next few years. The better the conference is the better seed we get in the future.

It's wierd how up until this game, Can't fans(the 15 or so who call ncaabbs their home) kept complaining about how classless Akron fans were. I didn't notice anything like that at the Championship game. I typically find it moronic when one fan base calls another "classless". What do you expect with a heated rivalry like this? That said, there were certain groups of Can't fans who we saying/chanting some questionable things that crossed the line in my opinion. I'm sure Akron had it's fair share of knuckleheads, but it seemed like I couldn't look at the Jumbotron without seeing an "Akron Sucks" poster.

Prove it Anyone who watched the Can't/BSU or Akron/WMU game has all the proof they need.

I noticed the same thing. Those black squirrels must be high in trans fat. Now let's see how many Can't grads know what trans actually means.

Amen, brother. As a side note, did anyone see the Can't fans last night? Every time STO gave a shot of them, it was a bunch of old goofballs, many of whom were sitting on their arse. I wouldn't be surprised if Akron brings many more students to the game tonight. Win or lose, let's show up these quasi-"I brought my OSU shirt with me in case we lose"-Can't State fans.

My thoughts exactly.

Maybe it's just me, but I don't see much of a reason to question Dambrot's decisions when it comes to playing time. Everyone is entitled to their own opinion, but when you're on a seven game winning streak, sometimes it's best to just sit back and enjoy the ride. Go zips!

..AND Can't STATE STILL SUCKS!

Okay, thanks.

Wait, so will the game be televised on STO if you have basic cable?

http://www.ohio.com/sports/113124819.html ''I know what we are. It doesn't matter who we play. We could play the Miami Heat, the Cavaliers or Our Lady of the Elms, and sometimes it looks the same to me,'' Dambrot said. ''It's frustrating. I don't know what I am going to get.'' Very true. It's nice having a coach who isn't afraid to be brutally honest.

Sagarin by about .35 points.

Fair enough.

Eh, I don't buy that, LZip. Case Western, Miami, Kenyon, etc are more prestigious universities than OSU. They just have different missions than the mothership. Up until ten years ago or so, OSU didn't have very competitive admissions at all. Around that time, it was common knowledge that anyone who went to my old high school with a sub par GPA or better was a shoe-in at OSU. Of course, things have changed, but just about every school in Ohio has it's strong points. And I agree, some members of this board can be childish about OSU.

That'll stick it to those big government blowhards. Thank goodness those funds are being sent to Illinois. Can you imagine the demand for train rides from Chicago to Springfield? Someone pinch me, I'm dreaming of the possibilities.

Right. So refresh my memory...where did the $400 mill end up going?

Haha. Someone please make a youtube parody.

Thanks for doing this, I always enjoy reading what our competitors have to say. It's refreshing to see that(for the most part) the MAC supports other conference members. That's probably because Can't has perhaps the weakest online fan presence in the MAC. Which is pretty bad.

That's really cool. Not being from the area, I used to hate when locals would say "Akron U". But the more I hear it, the more I like it. It's ingrained into the local culture. That isn't a bad thing.

Porter wouldn't leave for another college team. He makes as much as he would anywhere else in the country, and he already has a championship caliber program here in Akron.

Sorry Buckzip. Unfortunately, ZNO is home to a minority of zips fans who at times can act juvenile, at best. That said, you have to understand their point of view. For their entire life they've had to listen to people tell them that OSU is important and Akron is small time. Likewise, they've had to hear about 'that city up north' and all of it's terrible pro sports franchises. You've got to commend some of these guys for sticking to a team, regardless of how incredibly hard it can be. As far as OSU fans go--you have to remember that most of fans who post on OSU discussion boards are educated alumni. Most of those guys have respect for Akron's program and it's success. These aren't the same buffoons that local Akronites run into on a daily basis. It's the uneducated nit-wit's who have never stepped foot on OSU's campus(or any campus) that drive Akron fans(and other MAC fans) crazy. OSU just happens to be good at football. Akron just happens to be good at soccer. Let's move on and celebrate the championship, please.
