Ryno aka Menace Posted September 5, 2008 Report Share Posted September 5, 2008 This offense is potent. They move the ball at will. Either Navy is that bad or Ball state is that good. And after watching Dontae Love and Nate Davis...these two are play makers. I really need to see something from my zips this weekend to make me feel better about us vs them.

Ryno aka Menace Posted September 6, 2008 Author Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Wow! What a difference half time adjustments can make for a team. I hope our coaches take notes. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
apalmison Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Yikes, and they're back on the march. Gotta be a little nervous about facing this offense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 Another quality OOC win for the MAC. This week, I'm looking for UB to beat Pitt, BGSU to beat Minnesota, Temple to beat UConn, and our Zips to beat Syracuse. In the other games, I don't think the MAC teams have a chance.

72 Roo Posted September 6, 2008 Report Share Posted September 6, 2008 The Cardinals were impressive on both sides of the ball. To me they are better tahn us on both sides also. We need a focused, healthy team to beat them. I think if we continue to play the 3-3-5 defense against them the odds of a Zip victory are slim and none. Their O line opened some nice holes and they have the backs to hurt you when given a little space.I feel more confident about beating Syracuse than I do BSU.

With Bain back our defense will merely be bad. Without him the defense is even worse. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn't designed to stop a power running game like Wisconsin ran, so we saw a huge mismatch there and the Badgers took advantage of it. Syracuse will also try to take advantage of it, but they aren't Wisconsin and they don't have PJ Hill and a monster O-line. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
