Is the football team receiving any direct financial benefit from these excess guaranteed loss games or are they simply to help cover the cost of athletics as whole?

I'm not thinking he'll leave after this year, but he should be frustrated. I caught that comment too...no training table?! WTF. That feels like that should be a very basic necessity of any college program regardless of level. Comment on payday games is true too. If the football team is forced to sell its soul to help make budgets balance, they should be reaping some of the benefit. Unfortunately, it is not easy to win at Akron.

I'm in agreement with you. Sure some other teams in the conference may be marginally more talented than us - not unexpected, but our biggest issue is what I'd consider culture related. Attention to detail, using your head, accountability. Joe Mo seemed to have similar issues at Miss St. Its on the coaching staff to change this, but isn't easy when most of these players have not had success in their college careers nd don't know what it takes to be winners. As Mike Tomlin says, the standard is the standard. The Steelers have lacked talent on the offensive side of the ball for a handful of years, but they find ways to win because they play smart and accountable football.

Sure looks like a bad goaltending call to me.

This team is going to need to develop some sort of post game.

Living up to the hype already !

Need to play a little cleaner, but I’m loving it

LFG Zips!

Coaches fault for keeping him back there after he gave a TD to WMU,

We are losers. We can’t stop beating ourselves

So we have a chance. Change the script!

Love to see the Kyan Mason score. He’s going to be special.

This offensive line is embarrassing!

We are just a dumb football team.

4 turnovers in one quarter is unheard of. Silver lining is only down 7 with 3 quarters to play still..

Turnovers going to doom us just like against WMU

Come on Finley

Prediction: With Polk out, Granger has a pretty impressive game and is a starter going forward. Like the ability he’s shown in his limited touches this year (aside from the punt return mistake).

Wonder what Cooper and David’s injuries are/ if they’re looking at a medical redshirt. Been out quite a number of games now since getting injured in OOC play.

Let’s effing go!!

We escaped the bottom 10!! Also, two of our OOC opponents next year (UAB and Wyoming) are on there. Lets start 3-1 next year... https://www.espn.com/college-football/story/_/id/42078475/college-football-bottom-10-week-9-give-us-liberty

Exactly. Which is why I'm a proponent of scheduling OOC tough. Worst case scenario you come out better and more prepared for tourney time. Best case scenario (albeit unrealistic), you have a chance at an at-large if you pull off some upsets.

Would’ve had to have been Bowden’s last season.

Exactly. We aren’t far away. Another winnable game next week vs Buffalo.

Imagine the program you supposedly root for having its best win since Bowdens last season and not being happy about it. Couldn’t be me.
