Run the damn ball on a long 3rd and 1. Buffalo ranks 115th in the nation in run D if I heard correctly.

Per French, Tyree Jackson was out on the field warming up.

So it swung by 4 points this week. Seems excessive.....and baseless.

It's a great day for a ZIPS WIN! Also glad I don't have to wait til this evening or even the next day to watch...

There aren't high expectations for the team this year, but I do think they have some talent to surprise us. The thing is, IMO, the MAC is not scary at all this year. The exodus of talent from the conference after last season is well documented. I looked at the pre-season all MAC teams and came away unimpressed. Thompson IV (EMU), Wilder (WMU), and Walker (KSU) seem like the 3 best players. After that............a huge meh.

Lot of smack talk re: the true freshman QB, probably rightfully so. Sure would be embarrassing if he came back home and kicked our asses though.

I think most will agree it will be a tougher than normal season, and that really has nothing to do with Groce considering there wasn't much talent left to begin with and Dambrot did his fair share of poaching.

My guess is that it'll look a lot like this

Nice. I'm not sure how it will work opening a separate excel file like this, but I have seen people use Google Docs for similar situations. So we are going to need a separate tab for each game it looks like, then maybe a summary tab showing trends. I'm an excel nerd so I'll most likely mess around with it some. This could probably warrant its own thread/a sticky IMO.

Young being out for the remainder of the season should give an opportunity to someone...... Something else to add. Zero snaps for Gladney. Not sure if he is/was injured or not. If not, I'm glad to be seeing the rotation tightened up some.

Totally agree with this. Look no further than 6-6 Miami getting the match up with Miss. St. last year. I mean I guess the MAC champ did end up getting Wisconsin, but that was obviously an outlier.

Much like football, the basketball team has been picked to finish 4th in the MAC East. Not the MAC. The MAC EAST. Disrespekt.

I was hoping to hear Corner and Bridges are myself. I see Bridges still has Zips football in his twitter bio.

We've lost to a probable playoff team in PSU, now ranked Iowa State (who has beaten Oklahoma), 5-2 probably Sun-belt champ with a W over LSU in Troy, and 6-1, probable MAC champ, whose only loss is to undefeated Miami. These are top P5 and G5 teams we've lost to. Who really cares about the score yesterday. Last year WMU beat us 41-0. Didn't mean crap this year. Things got out of hand quick and we don't exactly have a high powered offense to keep up. A few bounces our way and yesterday can look a lot different. Not a W, but a lot more respectable. Smith holds onto the ball at the 1, Woody doesn't overthrow Bickley, etc. If we lose like we did yesterday to an OU, or lose to a Miami, Buffalo with their 3rd string QB, or Kent, I can understand the bitching. IIRC, we were picked to finish 4th in the MAC East this season. Not the MAC overall. The MAC East.

Can you provide some insight on which players we should expect in the spring @94zipgrad ? Does this include just freshman or potentially some of our other non-qualifiers (King and Jest)?

Really don't understand how Treon Sibley has one offer. http://www.hudl.com/v/27xHd4

WA WA WA WA WA WA WA. You guys sound like you need your mommy's tit.

Shh.... don't let facts get into ways of agendas 'round here!

Balsy, any gauge on whether or not there will be enough bowl eligible (6-6 or better) teams this season? Probably too early to tell, but its been the case the past few years and I recall reading about it around this time, probably a little later.

Butler beat again. All damn day.

Come on..............................always a day late and a dollar damn short. You can't do that and hope to win games like this.

#BlameMilwee Really a game changing play there. And then eff'n OLeary shanks it. Jesus Christ.

Oh what in the f.

What on earth was #57 doing. Toledo is the most penalized team in the MAC, so whats going on today isn't anything new.
