We beat an SEC Team. We beat an SEC team!

Absolutely love the lead on this Dawgs' Bite story:

Fortunately their reservation for Madison Square Garden was guaranteed. But the Bulldogs would honestly recommend the 2K Sports Classic organizers now invite Akron as well to the event finals, after a 68-58 loss to the visiting Zips.

It's hard to read this and not smile. To be getting some respect from our nasty neighbors says a lot. I hope the rest of the MAC is as competitive as we appear to be (until Zeke waxes them).

Did I mention I love MAC basketball?

I have a lot of respect for the writer of this blog. It is hard to be so fair and unbiased when you talk about your rival. Some of our fans even refuse to acknowledge that Can't is going to be a good team.

Anyways, is this going to be the year we get an at large in the MAC?

I wouldn't worry about it. If you check out the Can't forums(I use that term loosely) they are pooh-poohing Carducci for writing the story in the first place.

Sports forums are like that. People say stupid things...because they can. It's sort of like using the phrase "pooh-poohing". It shouldn't be done, but alas...

I post on a pittsburgh penguins board a good bit, and am the resident Akron fan there. Someone commented on the game to me..

"What about your Zips? That was a sweet road win over Miss St. They have the look of a Top 25 team. I will probably go see them play WVU later this month."

Nice to see a little respect from people who aren't Akron fans.

I saved the game on my DVR. I have watched it three times. We look better every time.

I'll say this:

If we keep playing at that level there is not a team in the country that would blow us out. And that is saying a lot for a mid major from a one bid conference.
