My 2025 prediction

[Zipmasterflex]

I think Akron will win 4 games this year behind QB Ben Finley. 

1. Duquesne

2.Buffalo

3. Massachusetts 

4. Kent state 

 

 

The biggest recruiting signing I'm excited about is Cibastian Broughton and I think he has a great shot at winning the starting QB position by 2027

Sounds very optimistic and all, but I'd say chances are he's at another school by then.  If I don't laugh, I'll cry.... man loyalty means nothing anymore.

Welcome to ZNO, @Zipmasterflex. It's a tough but manageable schedule.  You and I are on the same page, however I really want to see us win one more game than last season, so I'm optimistically going with 5 wins:

Wyoming - W

Duquesne - W

CMU - W

UMass - W

KSUcks - W

 

Add on your predicted W over Buffalo and we could be bowling.

Go Zips!

I'll wait to see how lazy journalist pick the MAC and then do the opposite.

And why should it? What has "loyalty" done for players? The idea that people owe us something is ridiculous. It's the same argument that you should be loyal to a company that doesn't pay you more or recognize your hard work. At the end of the day, you got to look out for yourself. Why would anyone stay at The University of Akron, when a larger opportunity presents itself? CEOs, CFOs, University Presidents, Coaches, NCAA executives always take advantage of larger opportunities that present themselves, why wouldn't the players (workers)?

 

It's funny how "Loyalty" is always a one-sided benefit proposition isn't it?
