RowdyZip Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 Just about to leave on the 2.5 hour trip north, predictions for this game?To think about: Eastern won at home against muffalo, by 13 (the Zips only won by 7 at the JAR).Eastern lost their top scorer for the season to a broken foot in that same game.Line is Zips (-12.5) I see the Zips covering that, and then some.Akron 77EMU 60 Quote
Zips fan Posted January 31, 2007 Report Posted January 31, 2007 I always worry about away games in the MAC. It seems that every team stumbles at points against teams they shouldn't. I am not too worried about the score as long as the outcome is a W.Here is my prediction:Zips 78 EMU 69 Quote

skip-zip Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 RowdyZip...I want to know how you drive to Ypsilanti Michigan in 2.5 hours. Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Posted February 1, 2007 RowdyZip...I want to know how you drive to Ypsilanti Michigan in 2.5 hours. Ok...well it took a little closer to 3 than 2.5 cuz we made a bathroom break on the way up and a gas stop on the way back, but I coulda definately made it in 2.5 cuz I don't stop when I road trip. That being said, that was a fun place. BEAUTIFUL facility. NOBODY there. Myself and 4 other rowdies represented well. I think we were louder than the whole place, except for during their run in the second half. 16-4!!! WOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!!! Quote
Bleacher Bum Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 It woulda been quicker if some certain woman didn't have to stop to pee....or should I say Peay? Quote
skip-zip Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 RowdyZip....Bleacher Bum....I'll hope you guys didn't get tickets. I've never been able to make that trip any faster than 3 hours, even without stopping. And I applaud you guys to making the trip to a road game. I wish more people would do that.Which reminds me....Are you guys forming a group to go to the Toledo game? We'll need the support that night. Quote
BirdZip Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Game recap says attendance was 697! Is that a typo? My goodness, that's pathetic. Quote
RowdyZip Posted February 1, 2007 Author Report Posted February 1, 2007 Game recap says attendance was 697! Is that a typo? My goodness, that's pathetic. Nope. it was EMPTY in that beautiful 8,800 capacity facility. And yes, we did make the trip, and no, we didnt any speeding tickets Road games are fun, especially when you win by 10. and yes...some of us are going to toledo. Quote
timmyboy Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Thats just sad to have such a nice facility and have noone show up because they arent winning, back in the mid 90's when they were winning champonships i heard u couldnt get a seat to their games. now that their on a slide noone wants to show. Hopefully akron never gets like that! Quote
ziptrumpet87 Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 akron never gets like that! already were... during the Coleman Crawford years. from recollections of the games I attended, I bet avg attendance was similar to EMU's current avg his last year here.Lets hope you are correct on that for the future though!

skip-zip Posted February 1, 2007 Report Posted February 1, 2007 Yes, at the end of the Coleman Crawford era, there were some pretty small crowds in the place. You guys think the lower reserved section has no-shows now? You should have seen it during a few of those years. Quote

Thank God those days are gone. Quote
