Well the defense played well for one down. These announcers have focused 99% of their discussion on UCF.

I heard that Pohl, Chisholm, and Terry Bowden all have the flu.

A school that needed a new football stadium, built a new football stadium? Wow what a huge mistake!!!

XBox 360, Apple TV, etc also have apps for Watch ESPN. Just have to make sure your TV or Internet provider is supported. If not you can always try to look for some of those shady online streaming sites. Just be prepared for a hundred ads and pop up windows.

I heard UA will be checking ZipsNation to decide the next president, so all of this arguing is really going to make a difference...

I really enjoyed watching the Zips on STO, so this is very disappointing. Sounds like they will be showing more games to less people. I don't live in Ohio and don't have Time Warner so I will only be able to catch them on ESPN. Had TW a few years ago and seemed like they kept taking away channels and bumping up the bill. Because that makes sense. I guess as long as all the games are still available online I can manage.

I remember standing in the JAR lobby. I saw the "real" Zippy walk in, walk up to the statue, do a facepalm and pretend to cry. That's about how I feel when I see it.

Wonder if they will ever get rid of the ugly Zippy in the lobby.

I still think it's going to have a lopsided outcome. It's the first game, and while we've improved I'm sure UCF has as well. 37-10

So they posted a photo of the JAR lobby being partially renovated. Mentioned new lights. This is what we call "putting lipstick on a pig." With the thousands of things wrong with the JAR, lighting in the lobby never seemed like the most important.

I feel like after what happened last season, UA will stay away from promoting specific players.

We'll finish with a winning record. Bowl game.

Love the "fight" that happens in the background. haha Probably should have reshot the interview.

Just saw @ZipsFB tweeted a photo from a video shoot tonight. Sadly looks like we'll be wearing the same JD/Ianello uniforms. In the past two seasons every MAC school has gotten new uniforms except for us. What we have has become outdated and associated with very poor play on the field. Something like uniforms could go a long way in improving our image.

The problem is we have a pretty bad record against major teams. We haven't beaten any top25 teams in the past 5-6 years.

Honestly at this point in the season I want to see the defense beating the offense. As we saw last season our offense can definitely score, but none of that matters if we can't keep the opponent out of the endzone.

For people who hate Lebron. Next time he is practicing at the JAR, just go up and ask him to leave. Problem solved. Since you obviously know what's best for our program.

While I did spend a lot of time at the Exchange McDonalds during my UA tenure. It's going to look very out of place in a few years. Crazy since it seems like just yesterday that Mcdonalds was the only decent looking building along that street. Guess that shows how far the area has come in a short time. I doubt they can do anything about it now, but I wish we could see another multi-story storefront/building in that place. They could still find a way to incorporate a Mcdonalds in a new building.

Maybe it's just me, but Isaiah Johnson looks big and slow. Probably out of all our recruits he worries me the most.

Short term Tressel would seem like a good replacement. But, what happens when he decides to return to coaching? What if we need someone to replace Bowden in a few years? What happens when people "forget" about him. Is he experienced enough? We need higher enrollment and continued campus developments. If anything he can definitely get students interested in UA...

Yeah...I don't think UA students would go see this Brian Wilson, nor do I believe any of them would even know who he is.

Brian Wilson the pitcher from the Giants?

I feel like there's probably about 25,000 tickets still left for that game.

Dear Zips, This is how you wear gold.

Well regarding Akron's uniforms, I actually doubt they'll be making any changes this year. While "style" is very important to recruits, I think our staff is focusing on fixing the problems on the field first. Not that it matters but Can't got some boring new jerseys this season. Nothing special...
