How does this happen every single game..

Could be. I thought the same this year, but his seemingly lack of growth year over year has tempered my expectations.

As one could probably tell by my constant posting during the game, I wasn't able to attend due to a variety of reasons, but noticed Moorhead and other members of the staff were there. Did he speak to the crowd at all?

What the hell?? Love the Rowdies, but If you think they are the "rowdiest" student section in the nation, you must not watch much college bball. A student section showing up and making noise and saying crap isn't "instigating". If it is, many sections across the country are instigators, but the Kent pansies are the only opposing team that can't handle it. The whole team getting in their face and taunting immediately after the buzzer sounds is bullshit. It could've potentially lead to physical altercations between fans and players which isn't a good look for anyone. I'm not crying about it as it makes the rivalry what it is, but just another example of the lack of class that program/university has, and there's nothing wrong with calling it out when it happens. If Akron players did that I honestly would be embarrassed.

Man that was a horrible last possession. Kent players stay being thugs.

This team just doesn’t have that “it” factor about it. Not clutch. Same type of loss to these upper tier teams all season.

We can’t get over the hump and take the lead. Ugh.

I personally think Rocky Lombardi (QB) was the biggest factor in the turnaround. The game at or towards the end of the season when they sat him and got blown out was telling. With that said, Irons has potential. How anyone says he doesn’t is beyond me, he was 13-13 and a TD against a mix of starters and back ups for Auburn. That’s impressive no matter who you are. He obviously needs to take better care of the ball though. Bring in a veteran QB in to compete with him (and as insurance since he is a bit injury prone) and may the best man win.

that's awesome.

Don't know why, but seeing Aziz take a charge was hilarious to me.

Can we get a call?!?!

Aziz making some plays!

this is embarrassing.

Sincere is such a punk ass.

Our offense looks like crap. Tribble has a wide open layup and stops for some reason, and we settler for a 3 from the logo.

sure are letting them play...

Do we want to guard Carry? Not liking this D on him yet again.

Kent bringing the effort and shot making early...

I don't think it's materially worse, though I could be swayed by stats. We seem to be winning NCAA games pretty regularly anymore. Enrique has a better all around game than Zeke, Big Dog, and Tree already I think. If he can extend his range some and become a bit more coordinated, he's got a real shot at being the best big in program history.

I'll be that guy,...Big Dog deserves to be in the discussion. He did win MAC POTY. I think it would be cool if we could somehow create a poll and rank our top 10, 15, 20 whatever Zips players and combine the votes to get the official ZN.o player ranking.

He was not announced as a scholly player or preferred walk on, but did post on twitter he was committing to UA. Noah Gettman, P/K, 6-5, 205, Mainland HS, Daytona Beach, FL, Sacred Heart transfer (1 yr. eligibility)

Genuinely curious as to who you are talking about here. LCJ I'd guess is one?

Like Cap'n, I too think Smigel is a solid place kicker. I also thought Slike was a solid punter last year. Both should still have eligibility, however I recall Arth mentioning something about Slike looking to move on to start his professional (non-athletic) career in finance, so he may be gone and that would explain the addition of the All-American FCS punter. I'd imagine Folser and the kicker from Jackson will compete to replace Smigel once he's gone.

I really wish kickers were rated the same way as the other positions.
