I really, truly, believe that it is less about what Bullock is doing in practice and has much more to do with how bad the other options are. If you remember, at the beginning of the season, Moorhead was very open about the fact that Bullock is not ready to play. I think it just got to the point where it seemed like he was the only one who might develop into something useful eventually. It seems like that reality is highly unlikely now as well.

Alright Jeff, way to shut up the critics (I was definitely one)! Hopefully that drive will reinspire the defense and we can make this a bit of a game again.

I disagree with bringing on Undercuffler. We've seen that he is equally worthless. How about Jankowski, Wasel, or Jennings? Are they really so bad that they can't see the field while we are watching this? There are 7 qbs listed on the roster (obviously 6 with DJ now out). If the qb play that we have seen so far is the best that any of them can produce, its time to dump them all. What a waste of valuable scholarships and roster space.

Terrible, terrible football all around. How is this a D1 football game?

I would bet good money that Undercuffler will throw an interception here. Hope I'm wrong.

One scary thought that has crept into my head is that, as far as I have seen, Billy Fessler has a much larger role in the offense this year. If it continues to be a problem, it is almost spooky how well that would mirror the situation we used to have of Bowden/Milwee. Two head coaches who are widely known as great offensive minds who hand off control to a largely unproven, young OC. It absolutely did not work out the first time, so let's hope history doesn't repeat itself.

Irons has not looked good, but I don't think the coaches will be too quick to pull him. He's coming off multiple surgeries, if they think he showed enough in practice to keep his spot, I doubt they give up based on only part of one game.

Personally, I think Tribble coming off the bench would be a big mistake. You want your 6th man to be a big scoring threat. Tribble will definitely slide around and play multiple positions while subs are being made, but I think he is best when the other starters are on the court as well, handling the offensive load. Groce is the one paid to make these calls though, so I'll trust in his decisions.

They gave the mls season pass away for free to TMobile users as well. I think that was a limited time deal though. I went on ebay and bought a code for $10 for the season.

Are the stats at the JAR showing Tribble with 5 fouls? TV announcers are saying he is fouled out, but he stayed on for the free throw.

Tribble at the free throw line. Very late call and pretty weak, but he did fall down with minimal contact.

Akron is up at the half in what I would call a bad game for Freeman so far. Has to be a good sign. If he can get going, Zips will be able to control the game a little better.

Lyles hasn't entered the game yet right? I obviously trust Groce, but I feel so uneasy with 7 man rotations. Especially this early in the year.

Zips just cannot buy a shot. It's unbelievable how on/off hankerson and hunter are.

I've actually enjoyed these announcers. They are not hiding that they would prefer if WMU wins, but they have been very willing to praise the Zips when deserved. I really like the color guy, play by play sometimes is obviously pressing to find words to fill silence.

O line is looking BAD

Tribble 3!!!!

Olivet was an exhibition game. Their second win was against PCCC in Kent, so they have been able to do something this season that the Zips were not.

Groce just said during the post game that he was a student manager that agreed to suit up to give an extra body during the covid outbreaks. He is going to stay as a walk-on for the rest of the season.

too cutesy on defense. They keep switching schemes and the Zips have been confused about assignments multiple times already. Might be time to pick something and stick to it.

Evansville is not a good team and the Zips look lost right now. I don't understand how the offense is this bad.

3 fouls on KJ already... 2 of them charges. He is struggling mightily.

We're getting good looks, just can't hit the broad side of a barn. Zips player seem to panic as soon as they touch the ball.

Zips look plain ugly on the offensive end. Multiple missed layups and Ali's shot is very off so far. Defense is great so far though.
