Duquesne has not lost this year - September 28th

[TennZip]

Duquesne comes to Akron tonight with a 6-0-2 record

 

season opener - 1-0 win over Michigan

1-0 win at Canisius

2-1 win at Robert Morris

2-0 home win over James Madison

7-0 home win over (correction)....Howard University

1-1 tie at Wright State

2-1 home win over Loyola Chicago

0-0 tie at Massachusetts

 

Duquesne has only allowed 3 goals in their 8 games.   I would think that they have to be among the best in the NCAA in allowing the fewest goals.

 

Most importantly, Duquesne is 20th in RPI (as of this morning).  Akron is 26...(as of this morning).

Zips must protect their home turf and get a win tonight.

This will be a very entertaining and important match.

[Blue & Gold]

Preseason I didn’t have this one on the (rather long) list of Not-To-Miss matches. I was wrong.

They played James Madison twice - and back-to-back to boot?

Actually, that was a 7-0 home win over Howard (not James Madison a 2nd time 😉)

my bad.....I have corrected   !!!   I am trying to get used to sleeping with a CPAP....and I am not getting much sleep....GRRR

Getting old stinks !!!!

[Blue & Gold]

I cannot attend tonight’s match, nor watch on ESPN+, so I’d really appreciate match updates & commentary tonight. 🙏

[fknbuflobo]

Great night for a footie!

Real men do not wear pantaloons to a match before October.

[GoZips88]

WHO is running the camera tonight and where's Chad? This doesn't have the look and feel of something produced for distribution on ESPN+. I can't even find the match on ESPN+. Watching via GoZips.com link in browser.

[TennZip]

I am just getting a black screen on the digital network....

no picture, no sound

 

freaking amateur hour

 

why is this game not on ESPN Plus?

[zipsrule]

Gooooaaaaal! Zips up 1-0, early second half.

[zipsrule]

Clapier.

[zipsrule]

Has anyone else had issues with the video feed?  Was working, but stopped for me late first half.

Who knew it was so hard to follow a ball with a camera! It’s like they aren’t even trying.

[zipsrule]

Zips win!! 1-0

[GoZips88]

Duquesne HAS lost this year.

[Ham]

Camer person should be forced to watch a replay.  A trained monkey could have done better!

[malonepioneer12]

Finally a win!

AKR 1-0 DUQ FT

 

Zips grind out a victory against a quality side.  Arguably the best performance so far this season.  Pretty even the first frame; Zips got most on the ball in the second.  Shout out to Captain Willie Jax for a really gritty shift at CB!

I believe the volleyball match that started at 6 pm was on ESPN+. Even if it wasn't, that is why there was a lesser production quality last night. Split staff.

[72 Roo]

That was an incredibly horrible production. The camera person should never do a game again. Send your comments to Chad Welker at cvw1@uakron.edu. I hope he is inundated with emails so we never have to suffer thru that again.

To roughly quote Ricky Bobby... 

 

With all due respect, and remember I am saying with all due respect, the idea of not putting your best staff on your top 25 soccer program ain't worth a velvet painting of a whale and a dolphin getting it on.

Line up had to be shuffled again. Kudos to our players for stepping up and doing as needed. I hope they can consistently keep this going. As I said before, I know they can compete with any D1 NCAA team. They just need to really want it and play hard for the full 90 minutes. Go Zips!

I'm not sure why comments go to Chad Welker and not Charles Guthrie. Sorry, but I don't share your seeming worship for the guy at the top. He's making some good decisions but he's also floundering on others. It's a tough job, and no one is perfect, but he should be able to respond to warranted criticism as well as praise.
