  1. Defense showed up to play today...oh yeah!!!! ...not
  2. Forget about Marshall, the real test will be against Norfolk State. If they can defy the odds and somehow win that game and I'd guarantee them a National Championship.
  3. A Penn State football program that has lost everything and is winless this year.... and nobody else
  4. Very frustrated with our fanbase/students. I remember going to every single game back when I was in school, and we had to ride the buss all the way to the Rubber Bowl. We weren't good by any means, but the games where still fun. Now I live 3 hours away and can only make it to one game per year if I'm lucky. People take it for granted and I envy those who live in Akron and have the opportunities to attend games, yet choose not to. Can't even blame the cost anymore because tickets are practically being given away for free. Does UA have to pay people to show up or what??
  5. We've only got two wins in the past two years, I've learned not to consider anything a "guaranteed win". I would hope that we can beat Morgan State, but sure hope they don't overlook them. It would be a HUGE blow to the season if that were to happen. We took a step forward last week, losing to Morgan State would be like taking two steps back. But my biggest worry is that less than 10,000 will be there to witness it, and that is entirely possible. Just out of curiosity, if a game is on ESPN3 can you watch a replay of the game later if you miss the live stream? I know you used to be able to.
  6. Very surprised about this one. But..the BigXII is different than the MAC, and the NCAA can be biased at times. They tend to give big schools "breaks" like this to help them out all the time, but bigger schools always get harsher punishments when they screw up. I have a bad feeling that they won't grant Pat a waiver...
  7. that's how I feel, it was a step in the right direction. But if we want to have people show up to watch, they have to do better than "almost win" I know people hate the NE Ohio comparisons, but it't crazy to see how similar the Zips and Browns are. They both were/are bad, but this weekend they both played decent. Both teams were expected to be blown out, but stepped up. Both should have won their games but blew it. At this point it's not the losing I hate, it's how it happens. As the game goes on you get the feeling "wow they are going to win!" then everything goes down hill.
  8. Even I would say that we deserve to be out of the ranking. But it's ESPN, and it's the national media. They only really care about wins/losses.
  9. Let me make an analogy. It's like somebody just handed me the keys to a brand new Ferrari. Then an hour later somebody takes it away and drives it into a lake. Should I be happy that I had a Ferrari for 1 hour? Do people care if I had a Ferrari for an hour? NO This "best team in the Sunbelt" got crushed by Duke...just saying
  10. I get the whole "moral victory" thing, but if we don't end up in the win column does anyone care? What if Ianello's teams went 0-24 and lost every game in overtime. Would he still have a job? At the end of the day we have to realize that we should have won this game, and gave it right away. It started out as a trainwreck and I give them credit for fighting back. But I can guarantee Bowden and the players aren't in the locker room popping champagne bottles right now and getting their tickets to Disney. I hate to fill this place with negativity, but a fan can only take so much. This stings much worse than the blowout loss last week.
  11. that's it....ballgame. 0-2
  12. I hate overtimes.. I don't understand all the screen passes and lateral running
  13. either it was a makup call from the missed horse collar, or the refs think that FIU has 10ft tall wideouts.
  14. man defense...I think we scored with too much time left.
  15. That was our last chance. Might have been a roughing the passer, but it's our won fault we lost this game. Have to learn how to get a lead and keep it.
  16. He'll need at least 2 more if we want to win.
  17. I've had poor quality video for most of the game, but the commercials are perfect. Go figure..
  18. Huge loss for FIU. 2nd and 33? If they get a first down...ugh
  19. They needed a touchdown. To settle for the FG really hurt us, but at least he made it. The defense got a break, now show up this drive!!
  20. we're playing worse now than we did in the first few minutes. The 8 point lead might as well be 50.
  21. I just feel like we haven't completed a pass in ages.
  22. Well we really haven't been able to move the ball this half and it cost us the lead.
  23. Giving up a big lead: CHECK
  24. terrible time for a turnover...
  25. New Balance and Mike's Hard Lemonade commercials: CHECK
