Welcome to the Ball Akron...

[higherroad]

I believe the slipper is going to fit a Zip quite nicely.The Zags haven't seen a defense like the Zips all year. Trust me, they're over-confident and under-prepared for you. They didn't even practice today, only dunk contests, half-court shots, and soaking up media attention. I was there and the two teams were night and day while on the court. You guys looked loose, focused, and attentive. The Zag players looked like their heads were still riding high in Vegas. I believe its Akron's time to shock the World and it starts tomorrow with Gonzaga. Your young players are tenacious, head strong, and skilled and your veterans are tough and smart. While you might be overmatched from a talent perspective at many positions, it won't matter in a one-in-done scenario because your team/players are more focused and ready for this moment. You play in a stronger conference and just won 4 games in 4 days to win the MAC Conference Championship. Akron has the ability to compete and beat anyone, anytime, anywhere. You have the momentum rolling...now its time to steamroll the Zags!Gonzaga won't know what hit'em.

Let's not forget that the Zags play tough D too. But i personally feel kind of good about this game. I think the world may be shocked but ill just be semi surprised.

Now, could Higherroad, by any chance, be...a Washington Huskie fan?
