TennZip Posted November 16, 2016 Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 I hope that they are all correct. I lived and worked in Bloomington, IN for 8.5 years when I was much younger. Have been to many Akron at Indiana soccer games. Those were of course in the Jerry Yeagley era so the zips are due for some payback. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
fknbuflobo Posted November 16, 2016 Author Report Share Posted November 16, 2016 If you view the bracket I entered, you will see that I note the grief Zips have endured at the hands of the Hoosiers. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They say that Yeags taught Bobby Knight most of his tricks! So, you got to see IU legend Angelo DiBernardo? I would call him the greatest collegiate player I have been privileged to witness. America's version of Diego Maradona. What a shame he was born too soon to help the U.S. internationally. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z.I.P. Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Didn't we beat the Hoosers at their place the last time we met in the tournament? Year after they won it all. I'm betting on Denver to the College Cup. And I'm the guy who picked Middle Tennessee last March! For whatever that's worth... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We beat the Evil IU Empire in Akron in 2013 NCAA Tournament. Freshman Adam Najem with the perfectly weighted through ball assist to Reneildo Brenes for the first score. And I sat next to George Nanchoff. Memories. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zip_ME87 Posted November 17, 2016 Report Share Posted November 17, 2016 Lest we not forget defeating IU November 28, 2010 in Akron in the round of 16 of that NCAA National Championship Season. http://gozips.com/sports/msoc/2010-11/schedule or August 18, 2009 during the regular season at Akron as part of the 23 wins leading to the College Cup. http://gozips.com/sports/msoc/2009-10/schedule 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your second example went to OT. Mikey Nanchoff settled things with a free kick score. Oddly enough, sat next to George for that one too. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was at that game as well - I recorded the goal and posted it to YouTube since that was such a huge win over Indiana then. Enjoy 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
