Cykron Posted August 18, 2018 Author Report Share Posted August 18, 2018 An Akron perspective of Iowa State’s football schedule (inspired by one I saw posted last year from a Penn State perspective): 1. Jackronabbits (South Dakota State) 2. I-Zippo-W-A (Iowa) 3. North Akron QB Academy #1 (Baker Mayfield’s Oklahoma) 4. The University of Akron 5. Team Canton United (TCU) 6. North Akron QB Academy #2 (Brandon Weeden’s Oklahoma State) 7. Southeast Akron (West Virginia) 8. Red Roo-ders (Texas Tech) 9. University of Zip Wins in Football (Kansas) 10. Bayloroos 11. UT-Austrkon (Texas) 12. Coach Goodcentury (Bill Snyder, the vampire, may never die) 13. Goodyear Cotton Bowl 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue & Gold Posted August 23, 2018 Report Share Posted August 23, 2018 Is this game getting any tv coverage or perhaps online streaming? GoZips dot com doesn't list any tv/video coverage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips dot com doesn't list any tv/video coverage. Iowa State is using its third tier broadcast rights on the South Dakota State game, so the Akron game should fall under the Big 12 TV agreement and be available through most cable and satellite subscriptions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ham Posted August 27, 2018 Report Share Posted August 27, 2018 I'm surprised that Cykron hasn't chimed in about the lack of respect we are getting from Des Moines media. They are expecting a challenge Sat night from FCS South Dakota State, but look to Akron as a breather. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Iowa media actually follows their programs and watched the ISU/Akron game last year, thus the lack of respect. But that could work to our benefit. And those Dakota teams are getting really good.

They are expecting a challenge Sat night from FCS South Dakota State, but look to Akron as a breather. The lack of respect is the residual of losing to North Dakota State a few years ago and occasionally losing to Northern Iowa, both FCS teams. We have been forced to respect highly ranked FCS teams. Also, it is related to the fact that we have such a big fan base. It means that disrespect gets vocalized more because there are tons of idiots who spout off about college football rather than anything else. And I will admit that we look down on the MAC, as if we have any reason to do so. We have been a perennial bottom-dweller in the Big 12. I think it has more to do with not knowing much about the schools in the Mid-East (or whatever you call the area between Dekalb and Buffalo). I, on the other hand, have vast appreciation and interest in MAC teams. Oh, and we beat you going away last year. And then followed it up by beating two Top 5 teams. Give us a break. We don't get to be cocky very often. Edited August 28, 2018 by Cykron Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don't worry Pauly, your good ol boys will give you something to talk about soon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We tailgate in the RV lot, so we will be set up on Friday. More details to come. What, are you trying to get us struck by lightning or something?

Cykron Posted September 4, 2018 Author Report Share Posted September 4, 2018 Hey, I've got an idea that would help both of our teams. In the words of the famous Cub Ernie Banks, "Let's play two!" Maybe even get a double-header tailgate! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted September 8, 2018 Report Share Posted September 8, 2018 So ISU's schedule is Iowa, Oklahoma, Akron, TCU. That's us sandwiched between some TOUGH games. Good time to play them, IMO. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So the only way us Ohio folk will be able to watch the game is to attend it or have login rights/cable subscription that has access to Fox Sports North? Bummer.
