zipsoutsider Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 UAB, Akron schedule football series for 2019 and 2020 Quote The series will kick off with UAB traveling to face Akron at InfoCision Stadium-Summa Field on Sept. 7, 2019. The Blazers will host the Zips the following season at Legion Field in Birmingham on Sept. 12, 2020. I like this match-up. I think it's nice to be part of the UAB comeback, as long as they remain on the losing end. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZippyRulz Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Yes, hopefully their progrum won't be up to speed yet. I'll bet TB's Alabama history & connections had something to do with this. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bbneutralfan Posted September 15, 2016 Report Share Posted September 15, 2016 Glad to see Akron arranged a series with UAB. Sadly both games should be played at Akron. I say this as a Marshall fan who has been to Legion Field a couple of times when the Herd played at UAB. Hopefully when you travel down to Birmingham they will have cleaned up that relic. Believe me when I - or anyone from Alabama, the only two schools who get the money is Alabama and Auburn. Even Troy is better off for a football facility than UAB. Still, it's a nice trip south.

I just wish our return game to AL could have been scheduled in November when the weather is better than Akron's (or should I say better than Kron's?)

I was in Florence, AL when Indiana University of PA played North Dakota State for the Div. II Championship in December. Really nice weather. They played at UNA's Braly Stadium, which at the time had a sand foundation and was a bluegrass playing surface. The weather was excellent and comfortable for all. That being said, it will be nice for UAB to be able to host us and they could use a little help after what they have been through. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did you stay at bowdens old house while you were down there? This post just shows what I have always suspected.....You are a transplant Bowden honk. It's fine. Just don't get so defensive any time the guy is questioned. He isn't infalable. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zipsoutsider posts nice observations, and a lot of interesting links. Certainly one of our better contributors. There was nothing in that post that was pro-Bowden. It was simply a little local insight from a person who'd been to a location were most of us haven't. I appreciated it. You on the other hand, think this is a forum to attack any positive people, and complain about recruiting. The recruiting complaints are fine, but the attacking has got to stop. Your posts in the Wisconsin thread were so embarrassing I had to send an apology on behalf of ZipsNation. Please stop it. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If that is what you take from that post you are as dumb as half the other people that post on this board. I will follow along the lines of GP1 and the others.... Have fun. You are just as much of a Bowden slurper as this dude is. Enjoy the board. It isn't worth a damn anymore anyway. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Section210Zip Posted September 16, 2016 Report Share Posted September 16, 2016 Thanks for posting that about GP1. I had wondered what happened with him. I was one of the "many people who read but don't post" . I too took time off from this site at that time due to all the negativity. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
