Stokes up what truly is one of the better mid-major college rivalries (I'm not bias - you're bias) ahead of a key matchup. There have been some awesome games. That 2011 Title Game was one for the ages. 1 Quote

Captain Kangaroo Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 That picture reminded me - I thought the refs on Tuesday night did a really nice job. Yeah, the botched a couple calls...but they didn't make the incessant ticky-tack calls. The game had a nice flow. Quote

Reminds me of how much some Zips fans whined about Zeke Marshall. "You don't know what you've got 'til it's gone..." Edited January 30, 2020 by clarkwgriswold Quote
ZZZips Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 My favorite video from a Zips/Flashes contest. Singletary with his hands in the air telling the ref "Who me, no way". Geno playing the innocent leader of a group of thugs. Senderhoff sheepishly sitting on the bench. 1 Quote

Our current asst coach's brother Geno. And Ohio U's current coach on Akron bench. Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted January 30, 2020 Report Posted January 30, 2020 Chris Singletary - Mr. .13. The annoying part of that video is knowing we still lost that game. We did win the MAC that year, though. First title for Dambrot and crew. Quote

And unless you have gone to one of the schools and been to the games, you just don't get it. Was talking with a Kent grad at work, and he said he was at the Singletary Ejection game. I said something like Cant Read, Cant Write... He laughed. Whatever happened to the AKRowdy poster of the weeping PCCC cheerleader? 1 Quote

I think Utomi's departure allowed Cheese and Banks to flourish. It helped us play the up-tempo, "Groce style of play." But you're right, having him in the rotation instead of the "Freshman 3" would be a huge upgrade. OT: ( I watched most of the first half of the USC/Utah game tonight. Utomi played quite a bit, and he's got a nice gig there. He doesn't have to break a sweat. I think the only movement he made was waving his arms around hoping his teammates would throw him the ball so he could shoot from one of his set positions. He also shoved some of the Utah guys around. He still has that deadpan expression. Not a player that Groce would call "Impactful.") Quote

GJGood Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 That incident at the end of a great moment for the Zips was unfortunate and I believe started due to something totally accidental. That being said we don't have to like our rivals but we don't need to show our dislike for them in an overly disrespectful manner. Its a great rivalry and both sides have taken it too far at times. As an Akron alum, though, I just want to see those supporting my alma mater stay classy even if it is against our most vehement rival. GO ZIPS! Quote
MDZip Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 ESPN has it as almost an exact tossup. 49.6% chance for the Zips vs. 50.4% for the Flushes. Quote
The Hip Zip Posted January 31, 2020 Report Posted January 31, 2020 Other than Filthy McNasty's in my youth and Ray's Place currently, I have yet to find anything else I like about the whole damn city. I'll be there tonight. Anybody else? 1 Quote
