It is that time of the year again! How will they do? I will go first: -Penn State: It is what it is, but will Bowden play it close to the vest, or will he play to win? Loss, but with questions 0-1 -Arkansas-Pine Bluff: Easy win 1-1 -Iowa State: I will walk back what I said on another thread, they are bad, but not Kansas bad. they are a 4-5 win team at best this year. With that being said I see a win. If they do not win this game IMHO, Bowden is on the hot seat and if the team collapses, he will NOT be around after Halloween....... 2-1 -Troy: This is NOT the team from 20 years ago. They are a middle of the pack Belt team and after a struggle, this should be a win. 3-1 -Bowling Green: This is a bad MAC East team, so this should be easy.... 4-1 -Ball State: This is the unknown of the season. I will give a win, but this could go either way..... 5-1 -Western Michigan. We go there this year and this is NOT last years team. Weather will be a factor, but if the Running game shows up, it is a win. 6-1 -Toledo: I have been saying this for over 20 years: Never count them out. Loss 6-2 -Buffalo: They're bad, really bad this year. There is a advantage of playing in the MAC East in years like this. 7-2 *Bye Week -Miami: They are way better this year and nobody knows this yet. They are not there, so another win in Oxford. 8-2(The late Bye helps) -Ohio: I want to say a win, but unless their Coach is fired/ walks, I see the streak continues. 8-3 -Portage County: Unless it is Toledo at 10am, I hate these games. However, Kent is back to being Kent again and this should be a easy win! 9-3 There you have it!, my prediction for this Season. How about yours?

I am all for having a stronger OOC, I want no part of that. I have spoken with several Miami fans I know about that and they even said that they were whoring out the Basketball team to make payroll. That is one road to go down that I wish on no team anywhere.....

I would be open to a Power Conference Assistant Coach. However would Akron pony up the $$$ for that on a Flight Risk to a bigger School down the road? Or would said person(whomever that might be) take a haircut in pay just to have the chance?

Is Indiana still open? If so, you almost have to take that job if they pick up the phone and call......

Look at I like this: -Nebraska is not what the used to be -Iowa State is Kansas-Level Bad -Northwestern the question becomes: Do they even care? Throw in a random game(someone like a Louisana Monroe/New Mexico State/UMass) and I think we Will he alright!

I caught myself almost calling Dambrot "Marty Jr." Tonight. This is what it seems like..........

You was expecting a Tuesday afternoon in Dayton?

Kent still sucks.......

CBS just flashed a graphic that Ball State is 27-5 in Bench points. Unacceptable...

How is the record when it is a late start(9PM Eastern? )

Don't worry, it will be a Spectrum Game while people across the country(unless it is flexed to Saturday for some strange reason) will laugh at the MAC..... BTY, I will love Lee Corso say 'We're going to Spicertown' just one time........

So, Two of the possible Three biggest crowds of the season is basically gone, with one being the week of Thanksgiving where the odds are noone will be on campus, let alone in town. This better be all ESPN'S doing.....

Kangaroo Nation has something to celebrate tonight!!!!

IDK know about that. If I remember correctly, one of the reason why Akron did not gt a At-Large last year because some of the "Experts" called Villanova a bad loss!?!? This season will be interesting because assuming the Zips win out, the so-call experts will use the Youngstown State game to keep them from having a At-Large(assuming they do not win the MAC outright). So the Options are the following: -Win the MAC and the Auto Bid OR -Gonzaga and Creighton win their Conference AND By some miracle, Youngstown State wins the Horizon. and the Latter is not a Gimmie at all.....

What do we do? I ask now because Azusa Pacific basically built a Carbon Copy of the JAR(Minus the Track). http://www.atiae.com/wp-content/uploads/2013/12/APUbasketball.jpg Expand, or build new?

Sorry Western, have fun slipping back into Mediocre Mediocrity....

I thought that it was "You can't handle the Rodeo Burger!"

Is just Buffalo just Akron House or Horrors, no matter the Sport?

Natson Touchdown?

Is Woodson hurt again?

I am getting the same thing. Radio is all I got(and I have Roku, and it is blacked out there....)

This actually crossed my mind yesterday, if there is a Game 7, you almost have to move the Game to Thursday. Even if it is on ESPN2, nobody will watch and the odds are good that no one will show up to the game.....

Ball State Db just got DQ'ed for targeting. First down....

TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!!!!!

Through the Ball State hands, catch by Lane, and then TOUCHDOWN!!!!!!! Back in business!!!!!!
