You guys still have yet to tell me who won the bye week on Saturday, you or the bye? I guess I'm not up to date on all the scores.

We didn't lose ... can't get much better than that this year

FIDO nailed it. .1000 against bye raises our winning percentage.

It's a sweep. We know sweeps...from basketball.

Man, the scintillating wit of those zippie fans: he came up with a bye week joke! Granted, it was neither funny nor original and had already been used by other teams four or five times on the board this year, but hey, it's the best they can do. Go easy on them.

bye is like a tie felt like.

IMAGINE: A division 1-A win
IMAGINE: Our best NFL alumnis actually having played football for us.
IMAGINE: Having the wagonwheel back
IMAGINE: Kent State, all we can do is imagine.

IMAGINE Making the postseason in basketball
IMAGINE Filling up your arena once without 2,000 Kent State fans.

:rolleyes:

We finally got them to talk basketball. I was wondering what the hold up was.

Imagine Akron actually winning something in the postseason... Well, I guess we'll have to wait longer on that one too..

But you're right, we're not good in football.. But the way you talk I would have thought you were undefeated. At least you are at home, right????

BTW, what was the score of your bowl game last year? I didn't pay much attention to the scores during that week..

He did ... his name is Jack Lambert.

You missed that game? They were in the Eligible Bowl, in which they got shut out.

Wagon wheel smack!

Hey! Everyone! Take a look!

Who doubts the Zips accomplishments?

Since joining the MAC, this is the list of the Zips MAC Championship titles in any sport:





Well, it takes awhile. But this is the list of the Zips MAC East Ttiles in any sport:





But all sports contribute. So, here is the Zips list of Reese OR Jacoby trophies:





In the behemoth that's Zips football, this is the number of bowl games they've been invited to:







This is the list of 8 win seasons they've had to be seriously considered for a bowl:






With this impressive list of accomplishments, you now know why the wagon Wheel is so important to The Zips. We actually had a poster on here a few years back getting emotional about the "special room" it was in. :D This is the "special room": the University of Akron Title Room. All by itself.

Note YOU said finally, but am happy to oblidge.


This is the list of big games K.D. won:

Here's how I remember it. The Zips were the only bowl eleigible team with a bye week. Probably counted it as a win and explains why they are so interested in bye weeks.

Imagine your best NFL A-L-U-M-N-U-S sitting on the pine watching ours actually play.

You forgot about Jason Taylor.

all of these guys start in some part for their teams; defense or special teams

Wagon wheel smack is awesome!

FlashFan,

I know that you did not look anything up on our MAC Championships or MAC East titles. You would have found the Zips recently won titles in Cross Country, Indoor Track, Men's Soccer and MAC East Titles in Volleyball and Football(1999 tied with Marshall). I don't care about the smack but try to be somewhat accurate.

Go Zips!!!
