I don't think it is fair college coaches can move laterally, I know you can't do that in the nfl!

Anyone worried about losing Chuck? I think if our defensive unit is going to come together it is going to be under him...Thoughts? http://www.sbnation.com/2012/12/31/3821756...ope-chuck-amato

Im not sure that you can quote a credible source that has this in the first section before any stats are shown: Akron Overall Record: 212-238-7 (.646) I am no math genius but I know that a losing record is NOT over .600

Personally, if I was the only one in attendance I would still root for my Zips! I love this team no matter what. They aren't the best, but I don't care. I am a fan, I get mad when they play lousy, but I have faith that the coaches will coach them up and help them improve for the next game. I am a proud 2 time alum from Akron and I will support them through thick and thin.

On the surface the hiring of Haynes doesn't look great, but somehow the statistics look a lot better than I remember OSU or Arkansas being. In 2011 OSU and the 19th ranked D in the nation?!? Another thing his bio lists him as a Can't Stater from 1987-1992...sounds about right...6 years to graduate? Did they do redshirting back then?

I'd rather have Dalton/Pohl any day! "Hi-yo, Silver! Away!

I'm not so sure...didn't the 05 band feature the guy in the electric wheelchair...I'm no band geek, but that was awesome!!!

Here's an idea... Lets have the 2005 team play the 2012 team!

As my dad always used to say, "Sometimes its better to be lucky than good!"

I know Lynch was great at Qb for NIU, but how is Dalton not at least Honorable Mention? I just looked it up....They dont give that one out...still I feel we got cheated... I guess that's the luck of a 1-11 progrum!

I am assuming these 3 players survived the hot potato test and did not fumble in their tryouts?

"That play was set up when Pohl was still the holder for field goals, as soon as they moved that to Paul, about mid season, the play should have been thrown out" I don't recall Pohl holding. Do you mean D'Orozo?

Yeah that really seemed to be the beginning of the end.

And that should seal it... Nice debut (basically) KP16

Im starting to see how this is going to end. The writing is on the wall.

Bad call on the trick play... I love trick plays, but where were they prior to K*nt game?

I think the ref's read the script wrong...Its Akron that is supposed to get hammered with all these tic-tac calls!

I really do feel good about next year!!! Bring on Sept. 2013!!! 9-14-13 Upset win over Meechigan!!! Heard it hear first!!!

Hey akzipper.... come on man negativity here too???

3rd and 18 from the 2 and he gets 24???? Come on

Soft defense all of a sudden...and now a TD boooooo

Cubit led the Broncos to 29 wins from 2005 through 2008, the second best total over a four-season stretch in school history. Six of his players were selected in NFL drafts, including Green Bay Packers receiver Louis Delmas, Detroit safety Louis Delmas and Lions tight end Tony Scheffler. Huh???

Nice job Wally... It will get better no doubt!

I still believe. I won't quit on my city or my school. Ever. Our day will come. GO ZIPS! Well Said '82. I spoke with my father a huge Zips fan and STH since 1964. He mentioned something that I feel has not been said... We gotta give credit to UMass. Those guys have faught hard all year undermanned, undersized, and were expected to be whipping boys. They played hard, didnt give up and deserved this win. He also said that after Coach Bowden got the kids up for all those other games, they just didn't have anything left to give. The Zips were tired, jumping offsides constantly, not taking advantage of bad field position. Should they have won this game... and going away, but they didn't and thats why games are not played on paper. I still believe in TB. I am not happy right now, but I am proud of this team and the way they played (almost) all year. I think that next year we need to figure out special teams (finding a returner, just kicking the ball deep and not worrying about a 50 yard return) and using some better defensive schemes. I am sick about hearing about 1AA or FCS or whatever its called now. Akron will get better but, it is going to be a "process" whether or not you like it. Go Zips!

He is pretty good... Last I checked, Peyton Manning wasn't real mobile either. Not that DW13 is anything like Peyton...just saying. Im just glad we have something exciting to watch because the last 3+ years have hurt...bad!!!!
