gozips19 Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 a little surprised that the biggest game of the year is upon us and no thread has been started. what's the general feeling about the game? i am cautiously optimistic but who really knows what zips team shows up today.thoughts? Quote
tpsjugglerdude Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I'm going to the game on the Rowdie bus with about 50 other students. I found Buffalo's event on Facebook and joined and started making comments then other Rowdies saw it and started making posts. If you want a good laugh:http://www.facebook.com/event.php?eid=52636683642&ref=mfAkron 70Canada 68Canadian Mounties 3 Quote
skip-zip Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 I thought the Miami game was a big one, because it was a must-win if we wanted a chance at that #3 seed. But this one tonight gives us a chance at getting the #1 seed. It stinks that such a pivotal game is on the road, but it is what it is. Is Buffalo ready to stop their recent bad play and get it back together? Who knows. Whoever wins the East this year is going to be the best of a bunch of average teams, unfortunately. But in our case, with it being a rebuilding year, I still think it would be a great accomplishment. I'd like to see a big win tonight. And amazingly enough, with how bad Akron and Can't played at the beginning of conference play, the East title might once again come down to that road game at Can't State to close the regular season.

Captain Kangaroo Posted February 26, 2009 Report Posted February 26, 2009 WEill there be on-line video? Bullalo always has a free video link.Try here about 10 minutes prior to the game. You need Real Player or it doesn't work. Quote

RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 wow a new low for webcast quality Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 the lack of people on the board tonight shows that there truly is no interest in this huge game...it's a little odd. Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 24-13 Zips with more than 6 min left in the first half.McClanahan has hit a few three's add to that a ton of traveling calls on both teams as well Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Zips - 30Buffalo Canadians - 25HalftimeBuffalo lit it up in the final 1:30.There had to have been at least 10 traveling calls in that half Quote
Blue & Gold Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 I'm watching the broadcast but I don't like posting during the game action. Idk, I think that Valpo loss took a lot of steam out of the sails of we die hard fans. That was a truly pathetic showing. I think that put in our minds the possibility that we aren't that good, it's simply that the MAC is that bad.McClanahan has hit some tough shots tonight.Go Zips! Quote

You really cant win every game and yes the MAC is pretty weak, but we aren't that bad at all. I'm just glad a game like that happened where it basically didn't count. How can you not be pumped for a game where first place is on the line?! We are in a better position right now than any of us could have hoped for at the start of this season. Let's enjoy this because the Akron winning tradition starts one year early. Quote
apalmison Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Link isn't working for me. Either I don't have Real Player or my computer is incompatible with Canadian technology. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Oh, I totally agree with you! I'm pumped for this game and am enjoying watching it online. I think we're gonna keep our 20-win season streak alive and have the 3 best freshmen in the MAC this year in Humpty, McClanahan & Nikola! Quote
bandzip Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Anyone have a clue why my live chat isn't working? If just says "successfully logged in" and then "loading" and never changes. Quote

RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 somebody's gotta get on that pierce guy.-edit- I HAVE NEVER SEEN SO MANY WIDE OPEN THREE POINT LOOKS AGAINST US Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 these refs are horribleas i say that another foul...this is ridiculous. Quote
bigsix0 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 Can't loses to BG 67-66. OU is up 7 on Miami with 10 minutes to play. If we win tonight, I think we should get at least a 1st round bye Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 K-ent loses to BG...Miami down to OU...Sure hope we can pull this off. Quote
RootforRoo44 Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 roberts gets hammered and no call...WOW...this is unbelievable.Anytime the Zips get a lead or get any momentum the refs just steal it away with absurd traveling and foul calls Quote
bandzip Posted February 27, 2009 Report Posted February 27, 2009 LEAVE BARDO OUT!!! Why do you keep putting him in when he just keeps picking up fouls and costing us possessions? Quote
