Every transient administrator at UA wants to put "University Athletics Rebrand" on their Resume. Who cares if it is actually an effective rebrand or not, they'll be long gone by that point. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gozips19 Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 A seafood restaurant that's not by the arena? Would love to attend but the location just doesn't sound fun. I'll be at the Super Bowl Pub by the arena. Go Zips! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Pretty sure that the Zips accounts post highlights and final scores regardless of the outcome. As do most other teams. It's like Kent doesn't know how to take losing so they just pretend it didn't happen. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we should take this time to learn a lesson - no expectation is too low for PCCC. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

johnnyzip84 Posted March 20 Report Share Posted March 20 (edited) So back on the game itself, I am in agreement with most here that the Zips will need to shoot it well (think Kent home game) to have a realistic chance in this one. However, I also wonder whether Ali's prior familiarity with most of the Blue Jay roster from his short Butler stint might account for some, small potential advantage coming in this game. You could argue that they're also familiar with him, but he's only one piece for the Zips, whereas Scheierman, Alexander and Kalkbrenner, being three major cogs for the Jays, are a much bigger portion of their puzzle. Yeah it's a stretch, but if the game stays relatively close, who knows what factors might possibly tip the tide? Ali didn't have his best games in their two matchups last year, but if curious the links to the box scores for both are here (game 1) and here (game 2).

Lots are generally $20 for those and this one is 10 and it's a 5 minute walk to the arena. The Chatham Center garage is literally across the street from the arena so it's super convenient but if you get a bad spot you'll be stuck in the garage traffic for a half hour after. Duquesne's main garage is convenient too https://g.co/kgs/saEexPF 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
