Dr Z Posted May 10, 2005 Report Posted May 10, 2005 Whomever was at the game knows that #16 is a PROUD moment in Akron football history. I only wish you could see the whole scoreboard. Still got my vote. Quote
Zipsrifle Posted May 10, 2005 Author Report Posted May 10, 2005 Lots of great pictures that I have never seen. Someone has been holding on to them. I wonder how they are going to break them up? Are they going to put the picture over all 5 tickets or the same picture on each ticket? Would be cool if they put different pictures on each ticket. After having my fancy Michigan season tickets, I was a bit disapointed when I got my plain old Akron season tickets. Oh, yea, I voted for 16 too! Quote
zip37 Posted May 10, 2005 Report Posted May 10, 2005 Voted ffor #16 also, as the Dells sang Oh what a nite!!!!!! With ball ammunition, lock and load. Quote
zipboy Posted May 11, 2005 Report Posted May 11, 2005 #14 was my top choice. Heck, I have that picture hanging up on the refrigerator. Quote
Zip N' Dots Posted May 11, 2005 Report Posted May 11, 2005 I voted for # 11 - the man behind the magic! Coach JD Brookhart!! Go Zips! Proud and Loud in '05 Quote
Dr Z Posted May 11, 2005 Report Posted May 11, 2005 if it were 5 different ones for the home games I vote for these five. First #16 (for reasons stated in my previous post) Second #14 Because I think I am actually in this photo, and I can remember how happy I was at the time. Third #12 Always good to beat your rivals no matter how crappy they are Fourth #2 Good TEAM image Fifth #11 Gotta love JD. Quote
Kangaroo Craig Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 I voted for #14. That celebration after the Marshall game was something we'll cherish for years to come. I have faith that JD will give us more memories like that one. Quote
Captain Kangaroo Posted May 12, 2005 Report Posted May 12, 2005 I have faith that JD will give us more memories like that one. I agree...but I think we can get even better memories.. The Marshall win #1 will always be special as it was our first win over a Top 25 team. Being there to watch the Leftwitch saga unfold was also pretty cool. The Marshall win #2 was great because Frye needed a "signature comeback win." The drama was intense. It kept our champoinship hopes alive, and did so on national TV. That said, I think there are a LOT more bigger wins in store for the Zips in the near future. Those two Marshall wins were awesome in their own ways, but are likely mid-level stepping stones along the way to beating "BCS" teams, winning MAC Championships and winning bowl games. The Marshall wins were great...hell, the Navy win was great...but they were regular season wins. I think they'll soon be overshadowed by "bigger," more meaningful wins. Quote
Zipsrifle Posted May 12, 2005 Author Report Posted May 12, 2005 Marshall #1 was my favorite till Marshall #2 came along. I still loved the poll on ESPN after Marshall #1. "Was Akron's Defense Too Rough?" I think we were rated as one of the worst D's in the country before the game and after the game we were apparently mowing over the Marshall line and being too rough on a QB that burned us 2 years earlier late in a game that kept us out of the MAC Championship game. But #2 was WAY better than #1. Nobody rushed the field in #1, it was a done deal, no HUGE come from behind thriller. Quote
