GoZips86 Posted September 10, 2022 Report Share Posted September 10, 2022 We are so in trouble without Irons. I'm not sure what Jennings can offer, but Undercuffler is far from someone I'm confident in now. Oof. Maybe he just needs a week to prepare as starter? I dont know, but geez.

Unless they're shooting him up with Michael's Secret Stuff, I didn't see any tools that make me confident he can deliver at the DI level. Teams will be able to stack the box and focus on the run.

GoZips88 Posted September 10, 2022 Report Share Posted September 10, 2022 (edited) Liked what I saw early on with Irons, play calling and execution ... minus fumbles. Undercuffler the rest of the way? Dare I ask about start of basketball season? Edited September 10, 2022 by GoZips88 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes sir. He red shirted as a freshman in 2018 playing 4 games. As a R-Fr, he had his breakout season. In 2020, the Colonial Athletic Association canceled fall sports due to Covid. However, they were allowed to play some independent games, and I do not know if they played any games or how many. In 2021, he was injured and played just 3 games. So, there is good reason that his stats were weak the other seasons. Go Zips!!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He’s a mediocre FCS QB. If he’s our QB the rest of the season we’ll be lucky to win another game. If Iron’s is healthy we have a chance to win 5 more. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LZIp Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 I wasn't able to watch all of the game, but was wondering why Undercuffler was put in. I hope Irons is able to get back, but being carted to the locker room is not a good sign. He was looking good. If there's any sign who our QB1 was...we now know. Zips competed tough the first quarter and a half. Also,strip drills all week! 6 fumbles (4 lost), is totally unacceptable and kept us from points on at least 2 drives Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

We had better statistics (outside of the turnover department) than MSU until Irons got hurt. We were moving the ball almost at will, and the defense was getting enough stops that - had Irons been healthy the whole game - would've made it at least interesting come the 3rd and 4th quarters. Instead, once Irons went out, our offense died which forced our defense on the field quite often, which tired them out, which led to a scoreless butt whooping. Captain said it best in different words: we're absolutely screwed without Irons. With Irons, make sure you keep Dec. 3rd free just in case.

First of all, Undercuffler did not perform at all yesterday. His play was not good at all, but all I did was state facts to refute a very poor post. If you look at the facts, Irons almost lost to a FCS team in SFU. This is the same team , SFU, that lost to Richmond by more than they lost to Akron. They are not a good team and almost beat my alma mater. I predicted 7 wins based on the transfer portal. But as I watch games now, it looks like most teams used the portal to pick up 20+ players, so Akron was not special at all in using the TP. Whoever QB's or plays, I have and will continue to support them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
GoZips86 Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 Any word on Irons? I'm so confused as to what happened. I didnt see him get hurt or limp off the field. The fact he went to hospital and couldnt put weight on one of his legs concerns me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
LoyalZIP Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 I wasn’t able to watch the game yesterday, but I was able to listen and follow along in this thread. I hope to watch some this week when I have a chance. It really sounded like the offense started to find a groove, they just couldn’t catch a break with the fumbles. Maybe they weren’t ready for the physicality of a team like that? Get used to it, we’ll see plenty more. Defensively? Love love love getting TOs! That’s how they can win some MAC games. Arth’s teams were helpless in creating turnovers, and it’s really hard to win when you don’t get a couple. That was promising. Im concerned about the huge uptick in penalties, though. That was one of the more impressive things from week 1. Can’t have that either. And as much as I’m a skeptic of Irons, I wish we had him back and I’m hoping this injury isn’t too serious. I have faith in JoeMo for this season and for the future, I just know DJ fits his system well and may have started to figure some things out before he went down. It doesn’t get any easier. Just gotta be ready for October 1. Go Zips! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
clarkwgriswold Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 Much of the disappointment on here is driven by unrealistic expectations coming into the season. The Zips now have an FBS level staff that can build a program, but it isn't going to happen overnight. Top kids are not going to rush to a program with the recent record of the Zips. Also, every school is utilizing the transfer portal and while it helped the Zips fill some holes every other school benefited as much or more from the portal. This team won 3 games in 3 seasons coming into this season. A three or 4 win season would be a vast improvement to the last three years. I'm confident Morehead's the guy to get it done but we need to recognize that he's a coach, not a miracle worker. I'm not going to judge Undercuffler just yet. The kid was unexpectedly thrust into his first FBS game in a Big 10 stadium in front of 75,000 hostile fans with limited practice opportunities with Akron's first offense. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZippyRulz Posted September 11, 2022 Report Share Posted September 11, 2022 (edited) Tennessee game line opened at 45.5, up to 48 at Caesars.. Probably not a good sign that they put the odds out already with Irons' status unannounced. Edited September 12, 2022 by ZippyRulz Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
