I'm still amazed at how our offense was in Bowden's first year compared to our last two seasons. I remember thinking it would be a juggernaut once he was able to build it with his guys. Guess the opposite has happened and it gets worse every year... Was Dalton Williams really that good?
-
Well...we still suck
-
How the heck does FIU get Pitt at home and UB got Baylor? Really? I get that maybe Pitt just wanted to play in Florida for some extra exposure. But there's no talent in Western NY going to Baylor.

Ohio State losing. Makes me feel better about the Zips and Browns sucking it up this weekend.

Akron 10 PSU 38

Can Penn State's QB get injured too? At least for one game?
-
I'm surprised so many are calling them new uniforms. Technically they the exact same jerseys and pants they wore last season, with only new helmets.
-
Mediocre Big10 and ACC teams should be able to beat MAC teams. I'm not saying we'll go 0-3, but we aren't good enough to go 3-0. Win 1 out of 3 and I'm happy.
-
I think we need to be realistic.
-
This team really hasn't done anything to prove things have turned around. As far as football in NE Ohio, people only care about the Browns and Buckeyes. As far as the Zips they really don't consider them a "real" football team.
-
Yes, the new awful black uniforms. I'm already sick of them.
-
So black will be used at least twice. Wouldn't make much sense to wear the chrome helmet with blue jerseys, since the Z is black.
-
2007 Win over Army at Browns Stadium Last time they opened the season with a win at home? Win over Ohio in 2001 I believe...
-
I believe you're referring to the teams new practice uniforms. Navy jerseys w/ white stripes, white w/navy stripes, and QB's had red w/white stripes. They are the generic design that adidas teams are using this season. Only practice uniforms and not based on actual game jerseys.
-
White helmets look f'n sick! But I hate the black and gold. If they used the same decal on both it would have made it 100x better....
-
Don't like the idea of using white at Penn State. They are known for white and blue, so why not try to be different? It's the biggest game of the year so we should be wearing the coolest helmet, metallic gold.
-
Yay, I'm sure all season I'll be hearing the dumb Steeler fans talk about Archer like he's a future hall of famer. Love living in Western PA...
-
Did they get completely new uniforms? or just reusing the old blue and whites from last few seasons? 2 or 3 helmets?
-
Yup I noticed that too. Same blue jerseys and pants from last year, white helmet and Z decals from last season. My guess is the team hasn't gotten the metallic gold helmets yet.
-
Looks like the party was awesome. Great to have two big events at the stadium this past week. Really gives us a chance to show it off to the region. Hopefully UA recognizes the potential and actually starts using it for concerts and other events in the future. ...Kinda sad that a welcome home party and Browns scrimmage can draw more fans than a Zips game.
-
Coca-Cola sponsors a minor league ballpark in Buffalo I believe. So I wouldn't say it's entirely impossible.
-
Yeah most call it 'old' or 'vegas' gold. I think it was replaced with the metallic gold. They won't go back to yellow, but I do fear they may try a black helmet down the road.
-
Just white and metallic gold for this year. Hopefully they add in a matte blue next season, or if we get a nice surprise visit to a bowl this season. Having 2 helmets is common for most schools, but 3 might be pushing it for a small school like us.
-
First look at the Zips in white helmets. Might take some time to get used to, but I like them. Looks like they also got new practice jerseys this year. Hopefully this means new home and aways to match the black alternates? Also saw this concept helmet posted on @ZipsEquipment Wouldn't mind seeing that worked into the rotation along with the white and metallic gold.

30,000 seat stadium 5,000 seat stadiums outdoor practice field full indoor field weight rooms dorms great urban location ...seems like a pretty good resume. Make it happen UA! Great opportunity to show off our beautiful campus and generate revenue for surrounding businesses.
