Woodson had a 72% completion rate at Buffalo. Check out his completion % for the entire season in the MAC. I don't think its anywhere close to that number. Like I said. Bowden better not overthink this. If the offense had really been hitting before Woodson had his brain cramp that MIGHT be different. But it wasn't. No next year. Start Nelson and see what happens! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The staff obviously already believes that Tommy is our best option. If not, Kato wouldn't have spent the last 2 years on the bench. And I'm just stating this from what I'm seeing. I'm not sure I would make the same decision. Edited November 20, 2017 by skip-zip Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not sure I would make the same decision. TB loves his verbal misdirection when discussing who will start and it is tough to separate his gamesmanship from what he is really thinking. I honestly feel pretty equally OK with either. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ziptrumpet87 Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Maybe TW gets the start because of Senior game, but only plays one series. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m not aware of any sports cliche that says “you don’t lose your job to suspension”. Let’s hope Terry has his thinking cap on here. I was thinking this earlier and never posted it. Losing your job because of suspension is a totally different animal you would think. Especially if the suspension was, idk, something that might come across as "me" and not giving a damn about your team or the position your team is in. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zippy5 Posted November 20, 2017 Author Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 Tommy could have sat the last two weeks because he had pneumonia and it wouldn't matter. You can't take the job from Kato at this point Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dr Z Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 1 hour ago, zipsoutsider said: Reasonable preview. I like this summary of what the Zips are doing right: "It’s converting more third down plays than anyone in the MAC, it’s not turning the ball over, and it’s able to come up with just enough late stops to survive." 15 point favorite surprises me a little. Odds Shark predicts a 31-13 Zips victory. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Odds Shark predicts a 31-13 Zips victory. I tend to think the oddssmakers generally undervalued the MAC underdogs, but in reality, it would be awesome to see us up far enough to get some seniors who do not usually see the field in the game in the 4th.

I think you have to say this just to be "pc" because what if you do start Kato and then something happens and you have to put woody in. The optics wouldn't look good without stating this ahead of time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

clarkwgriswold Posted November 20, 2017 Report Share Posted November 20, 2017 I was at the JAR for Saturday night's game and present for TB's rousing halftime speech which I assume urged us all to get out in support of the Zips this Tuesday night. Between TB's yelling and the awful sound system, I really have no idea what in the he!! he said, but he was animated enough that I assume it was intended to get us Zips fans all psyched up for the game and out to Infocision. Go Zips. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
