Just got back from C-bus. The back line didn't communicate very well tonight, and is ultimately the reason we tied. That being said, the referee was a joke, Akron guys would get pushed around, and when we'd push back, the ref would call a foul on us. This was routine. The yellow that he handed out to Caldwell was an absolute joke.

OSWho played a pretty dirty game. That red card was one of the dirtier plays I've ever seen. Nagbe was dribbling up the middle of the pitch, when he was tripped up. While he was laying on the ground the Suckeye turned around and fired a laser at Nagbe's head from about 10 feet away. It was blatant and disgusting. Not sure if the NCAA hands out multi game suspensions, but this guy deserves one. Then as the carded player was walking off the field a large number of OSU fans were giving him a standing O. Totally classless. I hope we get them again in the tourney and destroy them.

People wonder why so many hate OSU fans...

Also, as mentioned eariler, this was not just some normal OSU player, this was Konrad Warzycha, who was a CAPTAIN, and who is the son of the head coach of the Columbus Crew. For someone someone with credentials like that, how classless.

If true, what an asshat. He deserves a suspension at the mimimum.

While staying "perfect" throughout the season was always an extreme longshot, it does suck to have the Red & Silver be the 1st team to leave these blemishes. Nevertheless, the journey to an NCAA championship continues. Looking at the Big 10 standings, the Zips can't afford a let-down against UM, MSU or PSU. All seem quite capable. Here's to moving forward. Go Zips!

Big Ten Overall

Team Record Pct. Pts. Record Pct.

1. Michigan State 1-0-0 1.000 3 7-1-0 .875

Ohio State 1-0-0 1.000 3 5-2-1 .688

Indiana 1-0-0 1.000 3 4-3-0 .571

4. Penn State 0-1-0 .000 0 5-2-0 .714

Michigan 0-1-0 .000 0 4-2-3 .611

Northwestern 0-1-0 .000 0 3-4-0 .429

Wisconsin 0-0-0 .000 0 1-6-1 .188

I used to officiate soccer games for a recreational league for 5 years(until college), and last night was one of the worse referee performances I have ever seen...

I don't know how many people know this, but one of the line judges actually blew the AK-Rowdies a kiss after we were booing them...and they were clapping and shaking hands with a couple workers at OSU during halftime and overtime...

Our sloppy play + OSwho's thugness(i would put above singletipsy) + referee's trying to keep OSwho in the game = a tie

1) The referees were not even close to the reason that we tied that game. There were some questionable calls, but there were some calls that went against OSU as well that were questionable. I hate whining about the refs because it takes the focus off the real reason we tied that game:

2) We sucked. All the way around we played terrible last night. Zarek made more mistakes last night than I've seen him make in his career. With 20 minutes left and up a man we decided to start passing it around the back instead of actually attacking. I don't know if that came from the coach or if the players just got passive, but it was terrible. Not Akronesque at all.

3) Speaking of Porter, far be it from me to criticize, but there were some questionable decisions here to. With 15 minutes left and the game on the line we send in Thomas Schmitt??? When OSU is scrambling to score a goal, and pressing everyone forward, you kind of want someone up front that if you clear the ball to, they can hold on to it. He couldn't even get to the ball because the defenders were towering over him. I hope CP learned something from last night. I have to believe it was his call to take the foot off the gas at the end of the game.

4) The red card on OSU was amazing. I have no idea what he was thinking, but it was utterly ridiculous. I've never seen anything like it. I have to think that he just blasted the ball and didn't mean to hit Darlington right in the noggin, but that was just plain dumb.

5) It's pretty lame that the shutout streak ended at the hands of the Bucks, but we totally deserved everything we got last night. We certainly didn't earn a win last night.
