It will certainly make you a more educated viewer of today's contest. I do have to say, though, that the article on Coach Arth is very good. 3 Quote
AKSportsFan Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 Our DBs are awful. We look clueless back there. Quote
NWAkron Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Nice start...but now what? Sense the wheels are coming off. UAB shaking off their jet lag. Edited September 7, 2019 by NWAkron Quote
NWAkron Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) Let me correct that...NOW the wheels are all off. That false start penalty on UAB ... Seems like it helped them. Edited September 7, 2019 by NWAkron Quote

RowdyZip Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 This is a zero win team right now. The most concerning thing is the discipline penalties. And getting shut down by a defense that has 9 new starters in their second game. Quote
Zipmeister Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 OMG! Total ineptitude Kickers that can't kick, punters that can't punt, Dbacks with no clue (maybe because of no pressure generated up front), ineffective offense. We will be hard-pressed to win a game this year. 1 Quote
NWAkron Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) To be fair..the punter's last two were much better. But yeah...0-12...it looks like. I assume Arth didn't recruit Fitchen or Wheeland. What soul-sucking game Edited September 7, 2019 by NWAkron Quote
I love Zippy Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 Well on the bright side I think we have found our #1 receiver in Burkhart. Quote

Field position was difference. Bad kickoff leads to anotherTD. Best part of game is the highlights from the 1976 Division 2 game Edited September 7, 2019 by NWAkron Quote
NWAkron Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 (edited) That was a fire Arth moment. Why? Why? 4th and 1...throw it to Lee 5 yards behind line of scrimmage. What could go wrong? That UAB coach is a lot like that Cherry Bowl coach...hes going to run up the score on Akron Edited September 7, 2019 by NWAkron Quote
AKSportsFan Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 Welcome to Division 1, Arth. You can't do that here. Quote

Don't forget, we ate a year of a contract for this. Even if the cupboard is currently bare, discipline issues and poor play calling are purely on the coach. While we suffered through some of that with Bowden, his teams were usually competitive and won some notable games and had a small handful of good seasons, particularly after bringing us back from the iCoach abyss. Why do I feel we have returned to that dark time? Because that's your negative personality. 1 Quote

There was plenty to be positive about during Bowden's tenure, and I was among those supporters. I've seen nothing so far this season to be positive about, especially considering this is at the expense of the premature sacking of the most successful D-1 coach we've ever had. Hence, my current negative disposition. I guess most NEO sports fans are perpetually happy with what the prospects of starting over again might bring. I'm not among them.

Balsy Posted September 7, 2019 Report Posted September 7, 2019 I think I saw a Rob Ianello on the sidelines today. Quote
