kreed5120 Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Hopefully we can pull a decent crowd tonight with it being the start of MAC play and Dambrot being in a position to set the Zips all-time wins mark. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
UAZipster0305 Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Zips at home against BUGS is as guaranteed as it gets...much like a loss in Canada every year. Here comes #18 in a row against them. Their fans must despise us. Should be a blowout, but I am looking forward to watching on ESPN3 nonetheless.

clarkwgriswold Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Curious to see BGSU guard Antwon Lillard. He's the kid who was a standout at Cleveland Central Catholic who had a monster dunk in the last minute of the state championship game but got t'd up for hanging on the rim, resulting in tech free throws and the eventual loss of the game in OT. Always felt a little bad for the kid. http://highschoolsports.cleveland.com/news/article/-6951888627710125408/central-catholics-antwon-lillard-says-he-hung-on-rim-after-late-dunk-against-defiance-to-protect-himself/ 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You only show up for K.e.nt. & Ohio. I'm actually shocked you even knew the Zips had a game tonight.

NWAkron Posted January 3, 2017 Report Share Posted January 3, 2017 Who is this Joe Akron person everyone keeps talking about? I think he's an urban legend. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Z.I.P. Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) Could someone watching in REAL time please provide a score?? I don't have the ESPN3 feed, and there are two diff scores. The GoZips gametracker shows Akron leading 17-11, while ESPN -- which has no tracker at all, just the score shows 30-28 Akron. smh! Edited January 4, 2017 by Z.I.P.

That foul on Kwan when the rebounder fell into him was atrocious. Edited January 4, 2017 by kreed5120 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

kreed5120 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 I went to ESPN to check out other MAC scores at the start of half-time. It was accurate. Might want to consider using that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kreed5120 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 We really need to cut back on our turnovers. I believe our first 5 possessions consisted of 4 turnovers to 1 shot attempt. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gozips19 Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Watching on ESPN 3 Larry Williams mentioned renovating the JAR while being interviewed by Reg's. Said Vanhorne is working on it. Akron looks very sloppy tonight Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Z.I.P. Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 (edited) The gametracker is back up working! Interesting thing is it has a +/- column. And Antino Jackson is -13 in just 13 minutes played. Does that mean he isn't playing defense? Edited January 4, 2017 by Z.I.P. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkwgriswold Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Wow, the Zips CANNOT play that way against the better teams. BG shot 54% from the field and had only 8 turnovers. It felt like we had 8 turnovers in the first 3 minutes. Some of that was them playing over their heads, but much of it was listless and inattentive defense. We gave up ten points more than they're averaging on the season against lesser competition. Glad to see Ivey's continued development. Him slashing has become a great alternative to kicking it out for the three when Big Dog gets doubled. I sure would like to see the ball in Antino's hands more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NWAkron Posted January 4, 2017 Report Share Posted January 4, 2017 Never doubted we would win, but the Zips let them catch up, tie, and take the lead, and that is something they usually avoid. Onward and upward. Always a grind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
