1981 grad Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 I have a vague recollection of a weather delay at Western Michigan a long time ago when we were big underdogs and the game started late and we ended up pulling a big upset. Maybe this is a good sign. Or could just be wishful thinking. Quote

ewbrooman1 Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 Has anybody checked whether the Zips aren't already on the bus and heading home? 😉 Quote
exit322 Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 What's unfortunate is that the MAC may see this game and think "you know what we need? MAC After Dark" and now Akron vs Kent kicks off at 10:30 PM 1 1 Quote
ewbrooman1 Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 Anybody know what this 30 minute clock is? An all clear time after lightning strike? Quote

There wasn't much more than a minute or two between the end of Oregon's "the Big Ten is mine now" moment and MAC After Dark 1 1 Quote
MDZip Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 Weird things always seem to happen at WMU. Remember the Andre Jones touchdown? Quote
ewbrooman1 Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 Just as well he missed the FG. We won't have to hear about another one score loss again. 🤨 Quote
clarkwgriswold Posted October 13, 2024 Report Posted October 13, 2024 4 turnovers make it tough to win a game. Quote
