ZachTheZip Posted December 1, 2012 Report Posted December 1, 2012 It's no secret the layout of the JAR is terrible, and they are trying to make the best of a bad situation. Having seating in the lower bowl and section 11 is the best they can do in an attempt to unify the section. They're doing a terrible job of making the best of the situation, then. If they want the sections to be unified, then they need to switch to the opposite side of the arena. If they want to keep the students out of GA (and sitting down there if they don't feel like walking all the way to the opposite end of the arena from their ghetto entrance) and out of walking through the reserved seats then they also need to switch to the other side of the arena. Section off the upper north side with rope, so the only seating option for students coming in is to sit there. It's not a difficult thing to figure out. I have no idea why they insist on doing everything backwards. The design of the JAR is bad enough without them screwing up the logistics further. Quote
akzipper Posted December 1, 2012 Report Posted December 1, 2012 Well the easy thing to do is to blame the athletic department or the JAR design. I admit it's not the best, but I never used them as an excuse to miss a game. I went to as many games as I could during my college years but after my freshman year I chose not to sit with the Rowdies. The general feeling among the student population was that the section had declined for a variety of reasons. More that it was trying to be a clone of other school's sections and not unique to Akron.

johnnyzip84 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Here is the view from the MTSU web site. The Blue Raiders are unbeaten on the road so far in this young season. Nevertheless, the Zips are a 5 point favorite. Quote

You're welcome I thought so as well. Here's to hoping the Zips play well for 40 minutes today, because MTSU should provide a difficult opponent. Quote

akzipper Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Is everyone's audio working? I can barely hear some talking behind a ton of static... Quote
LZIp Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 I can barely hear some talking behind a ton of static... this. Video is fine, but audio is horrible. Quote
akronzips71 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 NO audio. When the webcast first started, there was some loud audio, like someone was plugging it in. Then it just went away. Typical. Quote
UAZipster0305 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Stream the audio from 1350. I prefer to do that anyhow because it's Frenchy. Quote
LZIp Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Stream the audio from 1350. I prefer to do that anyhow because it's Frenchy. clever idea if 1350 and the zips video stream was actually synched up. Quote
GP1 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 If everyone isn't too busy bitching about the video, wold it be too much to ask to get some scores. Quote
LZIp Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 If everyone isn't too busy bitching about the video, wold it be too much to ask to get some scores. searching is hard. http://livestats.prestosports.com/akron/ Quote
zippy5 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 searching is hard. http://livestats.prestosports.com/akron/ i would bet it took longer to look that up then to just post the score. Quote
Gcc Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 If everyone isn't too busy bitching about the video, wold it be too much to ask to get some scores. 37-36 MTSU. 16:55 left Quote
LZIp Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 i would bet it took longer to look that up then to just post the score. gozips.com was my source for the link. not hard to find at all. Quote
zippy5 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 gozips.com was my source for the link. not hard to find at all. Like I said, you already knew the score. Could have just posted the score, no need to be a jerk. Quote
akzipper Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Stupid turnovers, missed layups...typical Quote
zippy5 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Quick 7-0 zips run. 43-43. MTSU playing some solid defense. Quote
zippy5 Posted December 2, 2012 Report Posted December 2, 2012 Audio sucks. Is this a MAC-wide thing? Never really watched any other feeds Quote
