This dude is barely a step up from Alex Ramart

Had surgery to repair a badly dislocated/separated shoulder. Tough break as he was trying to make the play, but it sure was ugly. I believe in DJ, but he should have a short leash next year if his issues aren’t resolved. 

 I agree re DJ. Needs to clean up the costly turnovers and sacks. The question is, whose going to challenge him? Undercuffler won’t. I feel Wasel doing so as a true freshman isn’t realistic.

I appreciate the enthusiasm in this thread, and I'm not saying I don't want them to win and such. But I don't think I'm that far off by saying I bet many on the roster feel depleted and just want the season over with. Additionally, I don't count Jennings as riding the pine @Captain Kangaroo. He had no reason to go in this year, but if it's a lost season now, and he's going to try to compete for the job next season, why not give him some live experience as an Akron Zip, which is not something he's had yet?

 

Again, I'm not trying to be a downer. I want them to win, but I also am mentioning the other side of the coin. 

I agree with you…Bring on Dijon!😄

I’m talking about both QBs today. Guess which one is moving the ball too? Man we’re bad. Ugh. 

[LZIp]

No respect for our D, and I don’t blame them.

[LZIp]

Looks like we just scored on a fake pick play. Nice design. The “picking” WR doesn’t usually open up like that.

Zips up 10-6!!

[LZIp]

We are going to win this game.

[zipsrule]

Touchdown Zips!!

[zipsrule]

Up 17-6.

Defense is looking good, stopping the early down runs and putting them behind the sticks.

The Dijon stans went quiet lol. Let’s go Zips.

[zipsalum85]

Need to feed the running backs, drain some clock & take a win back to campus.

[LoyalZIP]

Man, what is it with punts killing us this year?!

[NWAkron]

OT:  Zach Gibson throwing for 146 yards v. Georgia.

[LZIp]

We actually have a run game. Nice job OL.

[zipsrule]

Zips add a FG.  Up 20-6.

[pdt1420]

First game in awhile that I think we’re the physically superior team.

After dropping a TD pass.

[LoyalZIP]

Ugly drop, but we’ll take any lead we can get. I think I see why Joe didn’t go after Sperling, Wiley is the guy. I like the future with what we’re seeing, albeit against a team currently tanking. 

[Captain Kangaroo]

NIU could be our new “Bowling Green”?!

 

Zips dominating every phase of the game…except punt returns.

[MDZip]

Could it be the first non BGSU FBS win since Terry Bowden was coach? 

[Captain Kangaroo]

Must not be anything worthwhile on tv this afternoon if everyone is watching the Zips? 😄

Last one was CMU over 4 years ago.

TOUCHDOWN AKRON! WOW!

 

Alex Adams snagged a pass but intended for him that would've otherwise been intercepted most likely.
