zestycoyote Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 WMU beating UCONN is nice. I was hoping that BGSU might upset a Tech team coming off a bad loss to Pitt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
AKSportsFan Posted September 22, 2012 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Eastern Mich. Up 7-3 on Michigan State at halftime! Excellent! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 What the hell is EMU doing in that game? State is ranked, EMU got molested by Illinois State. My picks are taking a beating this week LOL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

UAZipster0305 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 Ball St. looking very good up 10 at home against USF late in the 3rd too. Can we be the icing on the MAC cake? I think we have a chance, and it will be an entertaining game. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 NIU knocked off Kansas As predicted by CK. Kudos. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted September 22, 2012 Report Share Posted September 22, 2012 RIDICULOUSLY awesome catch by Snead of BSU to take the lead over USF with a minute left. Outstanding game! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Spin Posted September 23, 2012 Report Share Posted September 23, 2012 Bowling Green fell apart. They look hideous. Here's the conference schedule. v. Miami tough team, but nowhere near the caliber of FIU or Tenn. Winnable game. v. BGSU, they look like CRAP the past two weeks. Winnable game. @ Ohio, similar to FIU and Tenn, possibly winnable but unlikely. v. NorthIll, another unlikely win @ CentMich, winnable game @ KentSt, right now, could go either way v. UMass, if they don't win this one... @ Toledo, not happening... 4-4 or 5-3 is not entirely a fantasy. Third place is reachable (Ohio and Miami's cake schedules prevent a top two finish).

Z.I.P. Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 I NEVER thought I would be writing this, but put me on the dadgum bandwagon! Tennessee is a top 40-50 team, better than anyone we'll play the rest of this season (sorry for that admission Jupiter2). Win the next two at home, and Akron becomes a bowl contender! Good Grief! Do we have to win seven to become eligible with the Morgan St game? I don't think so -- we can choose one of those every so many years to be eligible...

GP1 Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Do we have to win seven to become eligible with the Morgan St game? I don't think so -- You are correct. The bowl in Alabama would take the Zips in a second if they could get to six wins. I don't want to put the cart before the horse, but it is fun to talk about. The Zips would have to go 5-3 in their remaining 8 games to make a bowl. I don't know if I see those wins out there, but the way things are going, they could go on some sort of a run if they continue to get better during the season.

As the season progresses, the players will get more comfortable on both sides of the ball. It's important to remember that this is the first season of Bowden's offense and Amato's defense. The results so far prove that a system transition doesn't have to be like pulling teeth (ahem, Ianello). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sergeant Zip Posted September 24, 2012 Report Share Posted September 24, 2012 Per Houston Chronicle: [september 22, 2012 was] reminiscent of Sept, 20, 2003, when MAC teams beat three ranked opponents. Those three big wins came from Marshall (over No. 6 Kansas State in Manhattan), Northern Illinois (over No. 21 Alabama in Tuscaloosa) and Toledo (over No. 9 Pittsburgh at home).
