Akron Men over Florida Atlantic 7-0 (yipes!)

[bmaker]

Our boys regained momentum in grand fashion today in a noonday match against MAC newcomer Florida Atlantic University. The Zips gave the Owls a very cool welcome as four separate players participated in the scoring, including Cam Carris' first collegiate goal late in the second period.Keep it up, boys. See you on Sunday against Cleveland State at 6:00 pm. CSU defeated Missouri State 2-0 earlier in the season so they will not be push-overs.

That's the way to get the momentum going again boys! Now go get the Vikes on Sunday Link

That was a great game to attend. Dumb time in the middle of classes, but attendance was OK for most of the game until they all left once the game was well in hand. FAU's goalie, Phil, got more than an earful from the Rowdies during his awful performance.This calls FAU's admittance into the MAC even further into question, as they have now been outscored 10-0 in MAC play after just two games.

I did not attend but I was told by someone who did that the Rowdies took things a bit too far in their disrespect for the opponents during team introductions. Good natured ribbing is fine...I question the need to be mean-spirited.

Do you know what was said? I wasn't paying too much attention to the player introductions. It's possible they crossed a line, but then again the word "suck" apparently offends enough people to get you kicked out of Big Ten stadiums.

personally, i see 'suck' possibly being offensive if it is closely followed by "swallow". in any other way, it is really one of the most mild and harmless (and slightly unoriginal) taunts in the book

What was supposedly said? I couldn't have been anything worse than what their play said of them.

I love reading stuff like this:UA leads the all-time series with the Vikings, 33-10-3.
