tpsjugglerdude Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 So we have all these threads about what to do in SB and where everyone is watching the game, but we havn't been talking about the Big Game. Let's hear some score predictions. Akron 4 Michigan 2 Michigan gets 1 red card and 3 yellows. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RootforRoo44 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Zips jump out fast and score two early. Win 3-1. I agree, 1 red card for michigan. But late in the game that spurs their goal and one goal for us as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't know if anyone from Michigan is ever mentally healthy but physically I believe so. Thanks. Just wondering if there was any reason that their level of play has jumped so much over the past month. I'm going to go with 3-1. Hoping that the D can finally make a stand this tourney.

johnnyzip84 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 With the Wolverines looking for redemption and on a 9 game winning streak since UA beat them 7-1, I think this will be a very close game. UM's offense seems to be clicking and even the goal they scored against us the 1st time (1st opponent goal at Lee Jackson in 2010) was an impressive blast. I think, in the end, the huge pitch will ultimately play into the Zips hands (feet?) and UA will prevail. UA 3 UM 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mes102 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 I thought to throw this out there...looks like some tension down in Cowlumbus Someone's status that i graduated with in high school that goes to OSU, --------------------------------------------------------------------------------- she said "Only thing keeping me from california is 2 days and 2 finals" I said "california for what? watching the Akron Zips win a national title?" she said "there is more to life than your college's soccer team...so no" ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------- a little uptight that OSU isn't playing for a national title i guess?

meatwad Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 We made it 8 posts before something about OSU came up. Not too bad for a thread that had nothing to do with them. I would seriously like to see just one entire thread that no one mentions Ohio State in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'll edit this post and the other if it hurts you that much.... Doesn't hurt me at all. Try following the topic at hand though. Thread title, "Akron vs. Michigan Part Duece," why on earth would you think that a story about an OSU fan you know belongs here? Try the off topic forum. I called you out, but I'm tired of every thread being hijacked to talk about Ohio State. I don't care about Ohio State, I care about the Akron vs. Michigan game.

meatwad Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 For my part I will throw out this prediction: Akron 2 Michigan 0 Our D is due for a good game. It seems counterintuitive that I would pick the game against Michigan (whose offense appears to be on a roll), but like Coach Porter said yesterday... In the back of their minds Michigan knows they cannot compete with us. We have beat them at their place (5-1 last year) at our place (7-1 this year) and we will beat them in California. On to the National Championship! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAsoccerchamps11 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 I say the Zips dominate the whole game, but our defense like to keep teams in it in the end. With the nice warm weather I can see Mattocks getting two goals this game, and the Freshman on the other team, Soony Sadd, is going to be hard to stop. Zips win though and that's all that will matter. Zips - 3 Mich - 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tbozeglav Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 since we're playing michigan, and OSU fans hate michigan, they should be rooting for us, no? Sorry... lol I think we're in their heads too much from the last game. We take care of business and knock them out with a 3-1 final, with 2 of our goals coming in the first half. We've been playing in the cold and it's hurt our offensive attack, so the warmer weather should do a lot of good. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let'sGoZips94 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 6-2 Zips. Michigan has 2 reds (1 of the reds from 2 yellows) and 4 yellows. Mattocks will have a hat trick. The warm weather will help him and restore his ability. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GP1 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 I'll stick with my prediction on Monday, and go with 1 red card & 1 yellow (whatever those are). I'm with you. Any predictions on the combined number of times players will lay on the ground writhing in pain after not being touched by a member of the other team?

ndzeigler Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 One to nil Zips. Darlington will have a lot of good opportunities and then pass it off to Ampai who will try to go up the middle and lose possession (as usual). In the second half Perry will get impatient, burn the entire Michigan back line and drill one to the back of the net. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips88 Posted December 8, 2010 Report Share Posted December 8, 2010 Matching set of bookends around the 7-1 torching ... 5-1 last year and another 5-1 to advance to the Finals. With Hollywood so close and with so much on the line, the pain, agony, near-death-experiences ... flops ... complete with displays of utter disbelief will come early and often - 15-20 easy. Big Ten 'style' of play will be rewarded with the usual handful of yellows and quite possibly a red or two (caused in part by Akron's possession style of play; seems to generate a lot of frustration ... ). GO ZIPS!!!!!!!!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

fknbuflobo Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 This is the match where Porter should pull another MF into the holding position. Michigan is all offense. They are excellent in the offensive third and will shoot at the slightest chance. If we stall their attack in the middle 3rd, the match is ours.

skip-zip Posted December 9, 2010 Report Share Posted December 9, 2010 I disagree with the thought that if we just stop their talented scorers, we'll win the game. I don't see us taking that approach. We scored 7 goals against these guys recently. They obviously can't match up with us around the goal. I see us focusing on attacking offensively, as always, and putting enough points on the board that there's no way they can match us. Akron 5 Michigan 2 Come on guys. Give me some entertainment. I don't want to stay up that late to watch a 1-0 overtime soccer game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
