He put himself in that position by burning his timeouts earlier in the half. It seems like every time Dysert had trouble getting an audible called because of the noise, we bailed him out with a TO.

It was a very exciting game, the most excited I have been at a Zips football game in years. I also have not been as frustrated at officials since the MAC basketball tourney a couple years ago. My god this conference needs to do something. And the thing that struck me was, we had no business being in that game. Everybody picked us for 6th place and Miami 2nd. We had no rated recruits on probably the worst team in I-A. Joe Dunn said last year we threw the ball 35 times +/- and completed 7 passes and we lost 35-3 to Miami. But there we were, trading shots with them. They knew we were there today.

Those penalties usually came on third down. Give US 60 yards at key times and it's a whole different game.

How many 15 yarders did they call on us? The refs gained more yardage for Miami than the hippy did.

DOWN TO 2 NOW. Whoda thunkit before the season started? http://sportsdirect.usatoday.com/odds/usatoday/ncaaf.aspx lists five different lines

So, they fire Ken Carman, and then a year later bring this guy in??? With all due respect, he's great at what he does on TV. But a radio show? They should put him on at 10p shift for those with insomnia...

I get it. The retro 1980's indoor soccer look. Kia Zolgharnain would be proud. BTW that Mandgold line still makes me laugh.

It dropped to 3. Wish I would have gotten in when it was 6.5... "For entertainment purposes only" of course.

I clicked through again. Just sayin'.

That's fine, but the constant comparisons is condescending. You're talking down on a team (in it's own forum). You can't acknowledge what they have accomplished. You can talk about Ohio without bragging and crapping on Akron. Otherwise, you're more than welcome to go to the Ohio forums and don't let the door hit you in the ass on your way out.

Bowling Green fell apart. They look hideous. Here's the conference schedule. v. Miami tough team, but nowhere near the caliber of FIU or Tenn. Winnable game. v. BGSU, they look like CRAP the past two weeks. Winnable game. @ Ohio, similar to FIU and Tenn, possibly winnable but unlikely. v. NorthIll, another unlikely win @ CentMich, winnable game @ KentSt, right now, could go either way v. UMass, if they don't win this one... @ Toledo, not happening... 4-4 or 5-3 is not entirely a fantasy. Third place is reachable (Ohio and Miami's cake schedules prevent a top two finish).

ROFL they look pissed

Too much Rajon Neal

What the hell is EMU doing in that game? State is ranked, EMU got molested by Illinois State. My picks are taking a beating this week LOL.

I clicked. I'm doing my part.

Buffalo's hail mary at the half is getting a lot of play on ESPN and local sports reports.

I still think Miami is a solid 2nd. Their record includes two good B10 teams. Bowling Green has been a disappointment and could fall from 3rd into the mediocre soup in the East. If we had Ohio's cupcake schedule, we could go .500.

Who does the scheduling anyhow? Unfortunately that was the MAC only game this week that looks to be close. WM vs UConn and NIU Kansas should be good games, but they're looking for conference matchups. So it was either Dumb and Dumber, or UMess at Miami.

Buffalo is worse than I thought. Fourth place is NOT out of reach...

These teams are very similar, I have Buffalo winning based on home field. Very interesting game, both teams are beatable, I wish we had Buffalo this year. I had Akron finishing 6th this year, but if we keep playing like we did in the conference games, we could jump either (or both) in the standings.

When the trade was made, I would take the future potential of either pitcher over Ubado. Now, I would take the future potential of either pitcher over Ubado.

LOL I use to think it was fundamentals in the majors, then there are trades like U-bad-o that rape the system. Then there's their affinity to play Kotchman and Duncan and the other geezers and leave Canzler in Columbus all year. Oh well, at least we have the Aeros.

The same Morgan State that put up 34 on Buffalo. Just sayin'.

They are the class of the MAC right now, and have a chip on their shoulder from last year's MAC Daddy game. This year they can catch lightening in a bottle avoiding the other three contenders in the MAC. But that won't be lost on voters who decide the rankings. It could be a great season to build momentum, but they're not ready for prime time yet...

The Carter Administration?
