    Where is the shooting yourself in the foot emoji? 

     

    There's no better combo than NE Ohio football teams and shooting themselves in the foot. No Browns this weekend so this is the only football team I have to root for. I'm glad they keep the self destructive tradition alive for me. 

  2. I'm sure the penalty was legitimate but why did they wait so long to throw the flag for ineligible man downfield? That's usually pretty obvious and called immediately.

     

    Also can't believe the Kentucky fans actually booing their holding call that brought back the TD. Do they spend too much time watching basketball that they don't know the rules of football?

    We were due to have a team give us a game intead of us giving them the game.  Great play by the defense to cause that fumble.  Joe Pesarchic type play.  Never thought I would see that again.  Trying to figure out which Undercuffler interception was the worse.  Tough Call.

     

    The third one was by far the worst. Just because at that point in the game, the most important thing the QB can do is not turn the ball over. Yet on second down he floated a ball right to the defense. 

     

    I don't get why it's so difficult for the Zips to have even a mediocre QB. We don't need Frye or Getsy. We literally just need a guy who can manage the game, hit wide open WRs and not hurt us.

     

    As a fan of NE Ohio sports, my two football teams just can't get it right. They have no idea how to handle the QB position, constantly play down to competition and have games filed with self inflicted errors.

    Its not so much of DJ looking bad its his leadership which i saw none, all i saw was him fussing with players and coaches on the sideline blaming everybody we need a leader!

     

    After one of his sacks he was furious. I thought maybe he was yelling at the refs for a missed holding or facemask. Instead he was yelling at teammates. 

     

    I feel bad for him. After all he's a college kid who had two surgeries that probably ruined his throwing arm. It has to be frustrating, but I think the best move is to find another option.

    Central Michigan's QB isn't going to wow you as a passer, but he's a heck of a player. Down 3 vs MSU in the 3rd. They are hanging tough.

     

    Being one-dimensional definitely hurt them in the 4th and the game will end up seeming more lopsided than it was. 

     

    Not a great few nights for the MAC. Even though Eastern will win, a 10 point lead over Howard isn't impressive.

    To get out you have to have somebody want you and we all know that football is usually the driver for those moves. This football has been in the dumps for a long time with nothing to offer. In addition, most MAC schools don’t have big budgets so geographically it makes a lot of sense as well.

     

    I mean SMU hasn't even sniffed an AAC championship since they joined the conference. They've had some winning records overall but hovered around .500 in conference play. I'm assuming they do have more money and better attendance numbers than UA. Because basically every school does, especially those in better climates. It also helps that they get to play bigger schools on a regular basis as opposed to the sorry MAC schedule. I'm not sure if Memphis, USF, Tulane, Tulsa, etc would bring more people to InfoCision. But it sure as hell sounds more exciting than directional Michigan schools. Unfortunately we'll never see it.

    It's the equivalent of Rutgers to the Big Ten. It was a media market grab. 

     

    SMU going to the ACC opens up a spot in the AAC. Just saying...

     

    Literally our only option to get out of the MAC. But that will never happen. For some reason UA is completely content being in the worst FBS conference.
