ZippyAlum Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 I wonder if DK took my advice and drank dill pickle juice before the game?????? If he did and it worked I think we should get busy and send the athletic department several cases of pickles because he played like superman or maybe like Popeye and the pickles were his spinach. Remember the earlier chant, "Kennedy for President!!!!" Great job! Quote
HELLOZIPS Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 Maybe we need to give pickle juice to our defense. You think it would help them stop the run? Or maybe blitz the QB? Quote
akronad Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 Congrats DK. MAC East offensive player of the week. Quote
Dr Z Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 Congrats DK 18th in nation in rushing. Quote
MDZip Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 And a nice mention in Mark Schlabach's ESPN's "On the Mark" column, under "Ground Churning Tailbacks".http://sports.espn.go.com/ncf/notebook?pag...k/onthemark1020And this from a guy who at the beginning of the season was just part of a three man rotation (not that I wouldn't love to have Alex Allen back too).

Quickzips Posted October 20, 2008 Report Posted October 20, 2008 The real question here is how long can he stay healthy and keep up the pace he has been on the last couple weeks? We've seen this type of potential from DK before, but he's gotten banged up far too easily and when he does he starts running East and West instead of North and South and he goes down at even the slightest signs of contact. I think having Andrew Johnson back to spell him 8-12 carries per game will definitley help. Also, Moorehead needs to ride this running game even more. Especially, say, when we're in the fourth quarter with a 2 score lead. Keep the ball in the hands of these guys and you don't risk letting Jacq beat you with his boneheaded 4th quarter play. Quote
Dan Kadar Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Aww, thanks guys. But to answer your question, I avoided the pickle juice.Wait... Quote
skip-zip Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 I said this in a previous post, but I will say it again. We all thought Dennnis would be a star a few years ago. Last year seemed to sort of put a lid on his career, but he bounced back. Nice job. Actually, his rushing averages this year are very, very good. With the exception of the Can't game...but I really thing they took some big chances bringing a lot of people up into the box, and making us throw the ball. Other than that, DKs per carry numbers are looking pretty good this year. Again...can someone confirm that Allen still definitely has one more year left? Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Again...can someone confirm that Allen still definitely has one more year left?Allen has 1 more year left. Depending upon his appeal for a 6th season, he may have 2. Quote
MDZip Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Aww, thanks guys. But to answer your question, I avoided the pickle juice.Wait...If you can run for 277 yards, we'll change the thread so it can count for your initials too, whether you drink the pickle juice or not. Quote
skip-zip Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Thanks Captain. I'd hate to be left with no experienced RBs next year. And frankly, at times I've felt like Allen was the best of the 3 primary RBs that we have. So, maybe we'll be lucky enough to have our best guy back next year. Quote
MDZip Posted October 21, 2008 Report Posted October 21, 2008 Dennis Kennedy is also only 49 yards from 2,000 in his career at Akron and one touchdown shy of 20. Quote
