Hilltopper Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Things are heating up. "Akron is no Gimme" Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyFanatic Posted December 2, 2009 Report Share Posted December 2, 2009 Was watching practice today and the team seemed to be spending a lot of time on fast break situations. Coach D was also working with Zeke a lot on his post play (had him shooting a hook shot over and over for prob 15 min). They looked great even tho coach D was running them ragged. but hey anything to beat A&M right? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZachTheZip Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 ESPN preview"There's a number in front of our name now," Turgeon said. "People will get pretty excited to play us now. So Akron was an NCAA tournament team that a lot of my friends told me not to schedule. Well I did. So we'll have to be really ready to play Friday night."Akron beat Texas A&M 75-67 in the only previous meeting Jan. 1, 1949.It's go time!

RowdyZip Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (-12) to a top 25 team on the road 1,000 miles away is fairly respectable from Vegas. Thoughts? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip Watcher Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 (-12) to a top 25 team on the road 1,000 miles away is fairly respectable from Vegas. Thoughts?It's about what I expected. somewhere from 11 to 14. Figure 3 or 4 just for A&M being at home with a 600 game winning streak or whatever .. so Vegas sees it as a 8 or 9 point game on neutral ground.This probably has less to do with the line setters as it does with the action the past few weeks. Niagara was a 1 or 2 point favorite Sunday and left with a double digit loss. Things like that get noticed by the guys buying the slips.I think basketball folks respect the Zips because they've got the makings of a very solid club. As we're watching, they're putting it together. 2nd half Sunday a good example. It's early December and they're not doing it for 40 yet .. but it's coming. Zeke will be up and down for a little while more, but soon it will be more up than down .. and then it's game on. B) B) Go Zips!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Quickzips Posted December 4, 2009 Report Share Posted December 4, 2009 Give me a good, solid 40 minutes of basketball and some worried faces on the Aggies sidelines and I'll be content regardless of the outcome. Give me an upset win and it will make holiday shopping and studying for finals this weekend a whole lot more enjoyable. Gotta show up for all 40 minutes. No disappearing acts in this one if we want to give ourselves any chance. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
