I can't get the dang game on Spectrum in Florida! Tried to stream it every way I know how. Grandma Football is not a bit happy!

Use the FuboTV app. It is on there

Zips deserve better than a 21-10 halftime deficit.

[Football grandma]

So the game is same 💩 different day?

The only thing I trust about the team is the inability to close out a half defensively 

[1981 grad]

I watching this on TV and even the commentators who are neutral could not understand the spot.  He caught the ball at the 34 and got pushed backwards.  They spotted the ball at the 34 and a half.  There is no reason that the spot was not reversed on review.  The Zips are just not good enough to overcome bad breaks.

I had it once before on a free trial. Now it wants $65 to reinstate my subscription. Not paying that to watch a Zips game unless the coaches go home at halftime.

The same coaches who are likely the only ones to give your grandson an opportunity to play D1 ball, right?

No grandson plays on that team. I use the name Grandma Football because I have 9 grandchildren. Akron is near where I used to live.

The only question is when I will have "seen enough" and leave.  I would say about 3 mins into 3rd quarter.

 

8:19 into the 3rd

Bingo.  I will give the Zips one more drive then I'm out.

Later than usual.

And Ball St jumps first but we get the false start. Simply it good enough to overcome these calls against us.

[zipsrule]

From 3rd and 1 to 3rd and 16.  UGH

To …4th and 24!

I think we have seen this before.  Zips cannot move ball in third quarter and opposing team scores touchdown and Zips down by 3 or more scores.  I really think they are playing better tonight but they cannot come up with the big defensive play on third down.

 

Third and one, then penalty and third and six, and then penalty and third and sixteen.  The Zips punt and the route is on.  

[1981 grad]

That was an impressive drive by the Zips.  Gibson made some great throws and the receivers made some nice catches.  Can the defense hold?

[1981 grad]

Great hold by the Zips and they get a break on the review.  Can they score to make this a ball game.  Gibson looked really good on our last possession.  The Zips may have the momentum.  By the way, like the announcers from CBS.

[NWAkron]

Little voice told me to stay 

[1981 grad]

Zips score a touchdown and 2 point conversion.  They are only down by 3.  This is the best they have looked on offense all year.  Can they finish?

I think you and I are the only ones still watching this game.

No, just can’t get to excited with our defense 

[zipsrule]

And the kicker gets a late hit out of bounds on the kick off.

[GoZips88]

Kicker needs to start running stairs RIGHT now and we'll let him know when he can stop.

[3rd&twenty]

Since when can you get a “prior to the snap defensive holding”? Twice in this game we got that call

[ZIPFAN21]

Let's go.  We got a shot.
