Screw Akron. I can't belive how frigging terrible this offense is...absolutely awful. The receiver drops everything, the QB bounces the ball to guys...I'm screwed.

Geez. This is a little harsh, isn't it? Akron's offense wasn't playing that well until the second half. No one doubts that. However, I think your ignorance is manifested by your calling their offense "frigging terrible" and "absolutely awful." You know that guy who "drops everything"? He finished the season with 75 catches for over 1,200 yards, and he had 7 catches and a TD yesterday. And you know that guy who "bounces the ball to guys"? He threw for over 3,400 yards this year, and 455 yards yesterday with 4 TDs and no picks. Did you take the time to watch any of the Zips' other games this year? Did you see the second half of the game yesterday? If so, you'd not only be a lot more informed, but neither would you be so critical.

I was at the game yesterday, and there were several points during the second half that I thought the game was over. Bottom line is that the Zips fought back and showed a ton of heart on a day in which they weren't playing as well as they are capable. Every team has days like that, and I'm glad that they continued to fight when they were down.

Gee, ever get frustrated? Post emotion at one time or another? I wrote a blog on Ohio football this year...I'm well aware of Akron, and sung their praises all year, especially in the absence of Frye and not getting a bowl bid last year. I posted that before the comeback...duh. I'm plenty informed...I was also plenty pissed at the time. I've also said plenty of good things about Akron, if you go back and look. However, my deepest apologies for obviously pushing you to therapy and all :biggrin:
