Zipmeister Posted July 18, 2022 Report Share Posted July 18, 2022 Is it too early to start talking about the Zips football opponents for this year? I did a little research on the Saint Francis University Red Flash hoping to find something that would fire the Zips fans up. Didn’t find much. The best I could do was this. Colt Jennings a redshirt Soph. linebacker from Cleveland transferred in from Kent State where he played in no games. So he was a Golden Flash and now he is a Red Flash! All right, calm down, I didn’t mean to get you in a tizzy. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Let'sGoZips94 Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Once a Flush, always a Flush. Still could care less about this game except for it being Joe Mo's debut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips86 Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 I don't know much about SFU, but I'm hoping the Zips come out of it with a nice win and a nice preview of the type of system JoeMo is going to be running. I hope it's a good crowd, too. It would be nice to start off 1-0 before heading to 3 tough away games in a row. Though, maybe we can knock off at least one of them. Hopeful thinking! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips86 Posted July 19, 2022 Report Share Posted July 19, 2022 Also, is the MAC having a media day this year? Last year it was 7/20. I can't find any info on it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I prefer to use their fuller abbreviation of StFU which accurately fits how I should explain my knowledge of this FCS program. I will still be interested to see the new staff, players and turf. Oh, and football. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GoZips86 Posted August 10, 2022 Report Share Posted August 10, 2022 Maybe I'm asking a lot, but I really hope people take advantage of that. It doesn't interfere with the Buckeyes game that many will mindlessly watch on Saturday, and its live football for free! I dream of that stadium being packed and a great atmosphere. A free ticket to the home opener in a new era is hopefully a good start to get some @$$es in the seats 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But I think Joe and the team deserve to play in front of a capacity home crowd. It's a great way to kick off the a new era and generate some excitement in the community. Maybe jack it up to $5 next year? I think if the casual fan had fun this year, they'd come back and pay a little for it next year. Yeah, it's the "Acme-Zip mentality"...but those game days were a lot of fun. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why shouldn't they get general admission tickets to a game or two? Reserved seats are something different. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

NWAkron Posted August 13, 2022 Report Share Posted August 13, 2022 saw on Twitter there's a "clear plastic tote" rule. not sure how we can bring a blanket or rain gear. Also, they will need to install metal detectors if the goal is to prevent weapons from coming in to stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
