Sorry, it's hopeless here. We just have to hope that we get six wins in a single season once a decade maybe. Not a chance for Akron to ever have success. None. There's too many excuses err reasons.

Yeah Toledo fans aren't crying over this one.

Likely not

I don't disagree, but I suspect teams are only looking at the tape when talking to guys.

Basically the same waiver that Akron would likely have gotten if they won any of the winnable games they didn't.

Average would indicate that there's seasons above those number that get you to that 6-6 range (I won't blame for a 3-digit FPI, we're a MAC school).

Are we?

That's the way this game is now. So we may as well embrace it.

That would not be the worst thing for the Zips to emphasize, not at all. Hopefully they're getting the data on how much their guys leaving get paid so they can use that in marketing to potential recruits.

Nope, straight to gulag for that.

Nope, not here. Absolutely unsalvageable. We're forever screwed no matter what.

Yes, I know, there is no hope and the whole thing should shut down. We get it.

There's a lot of speculation that those "personal reasons" are highly correlated with alcohol consumption, but I have absolutely no first-hand knowledge of that.

Southern, Atlantic 10, West Coast (think Gonzaga basketball for now) But yeah, for soccer...whatever

And the magic happens if both are true! Provided the UConn booster is "big enough" to matter.

Probably not plausible. TTU and BYU are much too strong a potential champion to get bumped by a G5.

I think we've hit the point in college football that there are no surprises.

I anticipate a LOT of events being held there when it opens.

Definitely possible.

I feel it may be time to move the MAC title game back to the top seed's home field.

I think there's a very very real chance of this. Chaos reigns supreme!

This is a 2026 thing but... If we get Duke, Troy, and UNLV Conference champions, UNLV at 11-2 (having avenged one of the 2) is a very possible playoff team Which means Akron could possibly host a playoff team next year.

Good way for NIU to finish its MAC run, 3-9 with their QB throwing for 27 yards in a loss to Kent.

This is why I don't see Joe as an actual candidate for any of the HC jobs that are open.

Technically, NO league has an auto-bid. It's the top five ranked conference champions that get a bid. Obviously, the B1G, SEC, B12 are 100% of the time always going to get there. The ACC usually, too, but that's more tenuous than they'd like. Then that leaves one for the top ranked G5 conference champ, which I think happens much more often than the PAC would like, will be the AAC.
