ZachTheZip Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 http://www.gozips.com/SportSelect.dbml?DB_...amp;SPSID=47177I can't wait for the OSU game. They really do hate us after we beat them twice last year and put their fan base to shame. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tbozeglav Posted April 21, 2009 Report Share Posted April 21, 2009 Road trips to Cinci and Ann Arbor anyone?Cincy wouldn't be bad. I'd definitely make the trip for that one. Ann Arbor? Don't think I could bring myself to actually have the desire to go to that town... ever...Don't forget Buffalo. I'm sure we'll be making a big student trip for that game.

Zipsrifle Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I'm guessing you hate UofM, but if you can put that out of your head Ann Arbor is a really cool town. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't think I could bring myself to actually have the desire to go to that town... ever...Don't forget Buffalo. I'm sure we'll be making a big student trip for that game.Is it because you are an Ohio State fan? Have you ever been to Ann Arbor?Trust me. I've been there many times. It's probably my favorite place as far as an urban-type city in which a major University is a big part of the city. Great atmosphere, very old buildings, and plenty of great restaurants, bars, outdoor cafes, and shops. You'll love it. In fact, most Ohio State fans that I know admit that they like making the trip to Ann Arbor for an OSU/Michigan game just as much as going to Cowlumbus. And check out the football stadium while you are there. They just made a major expansion. The place is just unbelievably huge. The soccer schedule looks nice. Playing "name" schools like Indiana, Ohio State, Michigan State, and Penn State at home. Can't complain about that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It is unbelievable to see what they've done to that place....you have to see it. But, Mr. Rodriguez has a lot of work ahead of him to get them back to national prominence again.

w00t Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Nice to add Michigan St. this year. I wonder what's keeping Northwestern and Wisconsin from playing us. They're the only two Big Ten schools not on our schedule. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbozeglav Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Is there something wrong with me being an OSU fan here? Oh wait, I guess there is. God forbid I even mention OSU on this forum or I'll get burned at the stake... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe one day there will be such a web site? OSU Fan can only hope... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbozeglav Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 hey now... just because im an OSU fan doesnt mean that im not a Zips fan... If the Zips are playing OSU, then I'll cheer the zips on with everything i got. Outside of that, Im a fan of both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
meatwad Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 Lock this thread now before it devolves....I like the schedule. My one beef is that we didn't get a "premier" ACC school this year (i.e. UNC, WF, Duke). I'll take Va Tech I suppose though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip_ME87 Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 LOVE the Indiana match the night prior to the IU/UA football game. With the Indiana fans traveling th Akron, might they squeeze 5k into the Jackson Cage?I'm with you CK. That's the first thing I noticed when I saw this schedule yesterday. It would be great to defeat the Hoosiers in Futbol at Jackson Field on Friday and then defeat them in Football at Summa Field on Saturday.

No chance.Oct. 3: Saturday - at Florida AtlanticRoad Trip Comment: Boca Raton in October...tempting! No Zips football that weekend (bye) too. A shame FAU is so horrible, but watching the Zips win 9-0 might also be fun?.Oct. 7: Wednesday - at Illinois-ChicagoRoad Trip Comment: Mid-week trip to Chicago is a hassle.Oct. 10: Saturday - at Western MichiganRoad Trip Comment: Bells Brewing would be worth the trip by itself. Unfortunately, the Zips play OU @ Infocision that day.Oct. 13: Tuesday - at Virginia TechRoad Trip Comment: Would have been a great trip had the game been on a weekend. Va Tech treated us great when we were there for football several years ago.Oct. 20: Tuesday - at MichiganRoad Trip Comment: Not a bad drive for a mid-week match. But you can't make an "event" out of it. You'd just have to go for the game.Oct. 23: Friday - at BuffaloRoad Trip Comment: AWESOME! Play futbol @ Buffalo on Friday, then head to Syracuse for football on Saturday! THAT, my friends, is the dream college road trip weekend!

That feels kinda strange to me.It WILL be the Zips. We're playing Morgan State the week before. I'm not happy about playing them, but it does give an opportunity to have arguably the highest-profile high school football game in the city played on our campus instead of somewhere like Cuyahoga Fall HS stadium.

Blue & Gold Posted April 22, 2009 Report Share Posted April 22, 2009 I'm hoping we have a high school game there every Friday night. Hoban - STVM have been playing at the Rubberbowl for years, as well as other City Series schools. I'm so excited about The Info that I'll probably go watch these high school games just so I can sit in, walk around, and gawk at our beautiful new stadium.

I'm so excited about The Info that I'll probably go watch these high school games just so I can sit in, walk around, and gawk at our beautiful new stadium.I think that attendance for HS games will be up quite a bit. I can guarantee that a large amount of people didn't go to the games because it meant having to go to the Rubber Bowl. The SVSM-Hoban game could have at least 15,000 people in attendance, with some of them there just for the opportunity to check out the stadium. Remember that UA gets a cut of the gate revenue and all of the concessions for all the games played there. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
