Very interesting set of stats. Thanks for putting this together. I think it demonstrates that Akron will have the advantage, at least by the numbers. Seems like the biggest challenge will be on our defense, at least if the opponent turns out to be USF. Hope Ossie, Corey, Devin, and Elliott come out smokin'!

The game is tomorrow. The place should be a sell-out crowd if it is marketed properly, but since we can't really rely on the athletics marketing department everybody needs to bring one friend and tell another. Get as many people to come as you can. I doubt that USF has ever encountered anything like the Goal Patrol before. This is the biggest home game in UA soccer history. Let's make sure the crowd reflects that fact.
