clarkwgriswold Posted January 1, 2022 Author Report Posted January 1, 2022 I think X heard me talking about these three point shooting Quote
Z.I.P. Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Cant remember anyone other than Joe Jakubick taking 20 free throws in a game. Ali x2 16/20. Quote

Blue & Gold Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Not much PT for Aziz in the second half, eh? Quote

Blue & Gold Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 For as ugly as the first half was, the second half was a thing of beauty. I guess you can say the fellas shook the rust off. 1 Quote

clarkwgriswold Posted January 1, 2022 Author Report Posted January 1, 2022 Hell of a win, especially after the slow start. It's easy to see how the preseason MAC favorite is struggling now. If they can get any semblance of discipline on offense and stay healthy they will still be a threat at the end of the season. 1 Quote
Z.I.P. Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Can this be correct? Canada ZERO offensive rebounds in the 2nd half? Wow! Quote

ZippyRulz Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Well, the Bulls game was fun. The Boals game should be fun as well.. 1 Quote
Reslife4Life Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Really glad this game got scheduled, this performance will really help us going in to OU on the 4th Quote

LoyalZIP Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 TEAMISM. That’s a culture win if I’ve ever seen one, and Groce said as much. One of the toughest wins since he’s been here, I can’t believe the Zips put up the point total they did after the first ten minutes or so AND without their best shooter. Zips got Williams out of the game and forced the rest of that mess of a team to beat them, and they couldn’t do it. Tuesday won’t be any easier. Put the team on your back, Ali! Go Zips! Happy New Year to all! 4 Quote
LZIp Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Great win. I thought we were going to get run off the floor. IDK how much of a difference the head coach makes, but props to Canada for getting this game played. I think we're finding out the team runs through Ali (and he's realizing his potential). That was efficient domination by him today. Also, Wynn provided some solid minutes for those who are interested. We're knocking off the favorite in the MAC and this team is still figuring itself out. Should be a fun season! Go Zips! 1 Quote
NWAkron Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 The last MAC game Akron has was against Buffalo in Cleveland. OT. Win gives Zips a tiebreaker. Only bummer was it wasn't the traditional Zips/Canada game... Quote
Let'sGoZips94 Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Excellent win. Canada was missing a few players, including Mballa, but they played a game more recently. Akron was missing Trimble AND had not played in weeks. Williams and Segu still played and brought more experience between the two of them than all of Akron combined. This was Groce's best coaching job since 2019-20. Hats off to him and the team for getting the job done. Quote

NWAkron Posted January 1, 2022 Report Posted January 1, 2022 Much anger at the refs from the folks in Canada. Apparently, the refs are all from Ohio an favor Ohio teams: skrabukes Posted 3 hours ago Every time we start to cut the deficit, they make a BS call. Typical Erie County Posted 3 hours ago In a game where everything has been called. Akron has committed TEN fouls. Ohio refs outright favoring a team Tee4three Posted 3 hours ago What do the refs just want ub to have akron run lay up lines all game Quote
