Captain Kangaroo Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Boast a 3-0 win over Wisconsin and a 0-0 tie vs. Michigan State. Quote
bigzipguy Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Nothing is a given, especially in soccer, as we know. Stay focused Zips!!!!!!!!!! Quote
Z.I.P. Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 Nothing is a given, especially in soccer, as we know. Stay focused Zips!!!!!!!!!!Anyone who saw them draw with Louisville on FSC could see they're a talented group. They have arguably the top senior goalkeeper in the nation in Bubonja. This should be a low-scoring affair. Others to worry about are Ian Sarachan, son of former USA MNT (2002 World Cup) assistant Dave Sarachan who's still working with Bruce Arena at the LA Galaxy. Freshman F Josh Beard looked very capable vs UL, along with New Mex transfer Zach Tierney. Prediction: 2-1 Akron. Quote
MDZip Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 A little worrisome especially since the game is in Chicago. UIC is a very up and down team, they also tied UNLV and Cleveland St., I just want us to catch the down team. With our talent, I think we will. The shutout streak continues - 2-0 Zips, Gavin and Bunbury (and one more assist from Nanchoff ). Quote
skip-zip Posted October 5, 2009 Report Posted October 5, 2009 One thing is for sure.....the Preseason #1 doesn't seem to have had any negative affect on this team. A 26-1 scoring advantage over the first 8 games? And the shot advantage has been even much more telling in each game.I'm getting used to this.....let's keep rolling!!And a special thanks for the students, who even braved the adverse weather last Wednesday to continue to give our team a boost. Go Zips! Quote
Wally B Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 Their goal keeper worries me a lot.... give me a team of any quality and a poor keeper and the zips win easily. Take an average team with a great keeper and anything can happen. 1-0 Zips or dare i say it an amazing game ending in 0-0tie Quote
ZachTheZip Posted October 6, 2009 Report Posted October 6, 2009 We're being advertised on their website. They're going for a "redout".That's how you build excitement for a big game using your athletic website. Put up something that is impossible to miss. Quote
Zip Watcher Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Per Gametracker, it's tied 0-0 @ the half. Quote
vmd9 Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Not looking good...seems like whoever scores first will win Quote
ZachTheZip Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Not looking good...seems like whoever scores first will winNow let's hope you're right.Seems like Akron is having an off night, statistically.One more goal will seal the deal. Quote
MDZip Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Whew! This has been a tough, tough match. Quote
UA Fan Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 lots of fouls going on...a slugfest.. Quote
MDZip Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Oh no, game tying goal by UIC in the 88th minute (just kidding, messing with those of you that aren't using gametracker). Our defense is awesome. Quote

Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Not looking good...seems like whoever scores first will winNow let's hope you're right.Seems like Akron is having an off night, statistically.One more goal will seal the deal.Well...with five minutes remaining, we have 10 shots -- 8 on goal, versus one of four of UIC's shots being on frame. This looks like a clear cut victory (knock on wood) versus a good club on the road. Quote
ZachTheZip Posted October 8, 2009 Report Posted October 8, 2009 Oh no, game tying goal by UIC in the 88th minuteIf you jinxed us... Quote
