RACER Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 good job defense!!!! i thought i would never say that our d won the game but they did. Quote
Z-P Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 Told you so! Gawd................I never thought I'd live long enough to see an Akron Defense win a game! Quote
InTheZone Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 We won, but I've gotta say.... if the O plays like that next week, we're gonna get our asses handed to us. Great job by Jim Flemming and the boys today, but JD needs to get his damn offense on the same page and figure out why they're stinking up the field. Even though we won I'm not coming out of this one feeling good about the rest of the season. That shit's not gonna work against OU, BG, or next week against Miami. Quote
Z-P Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 That was fun (joining the thread)...............thanks guys..............see you later! ILFSITF Quote
Zipsrifle Posted October 8, 2005 Author Report Posted October 8, 2005 That was flat out ugly. MAN have we taken a few steps backwards this season. I don't have a lot of hope next week. We play Purdue tough, knock off MTSU, Upset NIU, and then blow it against CMU and Squeak one out against Buffalo. We played 11 great quarters to start out with and 6 of the last 9 have sucked! OL seemed to improve to "Acceptable" status in the second half of this game, but if we play this way next week, we'll get hammered. Quote
RACER Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 we won but we have need to put a good offense and defense effort next week.watching the nui /miami game though miami is down this year ;so this is our chance to beat them at their place. Quote
AkronURocks Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 Ugly yes. But we won. Phew. I am done for today. It was fun chatting, not fun listening. Have a good night fella's!!! Quote
Zipsrifle Posted October 8, 2005 Author Report Posted October 8, 2005 I'm out too. I hope this board is dead next week at this time.... everyone will be at the game in Oxford. I've always had a good time in Oxford (even if their fans are jerks!) JD better kick these guys in the ARS and JD better come up with something because it seems to me that it isn't too tough to put pressure on our QB or stop the run. I agree with what someone said earlier, we rely too much on the big play. Just get the F'N first down instead of going for the long ball. We've got to get the running game going too. Heal up Biggs and Getsy. We find out what we're really made of next week. Even though it was ugly, we're 3-2, better than I thought at this point. Go Zips!! Quote
Quickzips Posted October 8, 2005 Report Posted October 8, 2005 I'll echo what others have said. Defense won that game. They need to get on the offense for a little help here. That was a pathetic performance to listen too. I know the weather was bad but still. I can't take back what I said about Getsy last week, but I'm still not ruling out taking it back sometime down the road. If he's hurt then that isn't really his problem. Thats JD's. If JD is being stubborn and playing the kid hurt then he's not giving us a fair chance to win games. Period. The o-line better get a damn good chewing out this week too. Not just for the two personal fouls but for the lack of time they gave Getsy for most of the game. It also didn't really sound like they were opening up holes for Biggs and the running game a whole lot. Those guys need to step up or its gonna be a LONG day in Miami. Quote
