Most consistent program over the past 20 years. For MAC teams it ain't about NCAA wins, it's about NCAA appearances, and the most consistent team is Akron. 

 

It's just like how MAC Football isn't about being ranked or getting into the National Championship bracket, it's about post-season bowls and consistent over 500 seasons. The premium MAC football program is Ohio University, and Akron Basketball is the equivalent for Basketball.

One championship last year, since 1968, and OU is the premium football program in the MAC?  😳 

And under the rules of division winners the prior year, they wouldn’t have even qualified for the title game last year.

Nobody here cares about the viewership. 

 

Espn+ provides a lot of flexibility for start times because when you stream you cann start whenever you want. Why couldn't they have started the game on Saturday at 5PM?  Why is it so hard to watch a Zips game on a Saturday when the sun is up for at least half the game? It shouldn't be this difficult to be a Zips fan. 

Because there is too much GOOD FOOTBALL on to settle for watching Bad Football

Yup, and without looking at ESPN stats would have zero clue they've had any success over the past decade. Why? Because every major game they get blown out. Why? Because they can't compete with the big boys.

Welp you just proved you are a clueless casual 

Boise State has a 503–189–2 record .726

Bowl record 13–9 (.591)

2 claimed national titles 

Made the 1st ever CFB Playoffs as a #3 seed.

and has 22 Conference titles. 

Please do yourself a favor and STFU

I disagree. Toledo is the premier football program.

That would be nice. See how easy it is. There are ten other easy things they could do.

5) Why are the speakers so loud?

Empty seats don’t absorb noise.

Big changes looming on the horizon include not just where the football program will fit but where/how the school will exist as an individual entity. There's a major public college shakeout coming for the State of Ohio, and the 14 existing public universities will very likely become seven or five within the next 15 years. I have a feeling the state will return to its "four in the corners, one in the middle" concept, which will pit multiple schools against one another, particularly in NE and SW Ohio.

 

 

 

Care to share a source for this? I haven't seen anything to indicate that level of interest in the Ohio university system by the state government.
