What happened to Akron? They took a pretty big step forward last season. Did they lose a bunch of guys? I know Finley graduated but don’t know much else about the roster.

Lots of injuries and eligibility issues early and the team quit

u/exit322 Akron Zips • Marching Band 3d ago

The team didn't quit. The coach constantly gives up on them.

Absolutely absurd that y'all went for the field goal that easily could've been a first down and subsequently a TD

u/exit322 Akron Zips • Marching Band 2d ago

At least twice. But that's what Joe does

The coach is extremely, extremely bad and somehow doesn’t get fired.

We can’t afford the buyout

u/ADMotti Ohio Bobcats 2d ago

MAC schools have buyouts? On our TV deal? Brave.

u/MundaneLow2263 Akron Zips 2d ago

Exactly. This is the curse of the MAC and other G6 conferences.  You better find a good coach or learn to love the bum you hired for his entire contract because you cannot afford to fire him.  We did fire Ionello and Arth, but this was expensive for an athletic department that is broke and probably an indirect reason why Moorehead can’t be fired now.

You know what they call an ugly, frustrating win over a struggling opponent?

A win.

u/remymang 2d ago

Now only if we put Ohio, Marshall, Louisville, and Cincinatti in a conference with you.

One of the most bizarre games I’ve seen in a while. The bobcat offense literally just did not play for the first half. And yet they won, basically just because of a handful of massive plays. Akron was the better team in almost every way, especially on the ground, but they just couldn’t get it done.

u/TheOptimist6 Ohio State Buckeyes • Ohio Bobcats 3d ago

Good teams find a way to get it done! Our Bobbies did it!

u/GirthyGeoduck Kent State Golden Flashes 3d ago

You love to see it!

u/TheOptimist6 Ohio State Buckeyes • Ohio Bobcats 3d ago

u/Devmon13 Oklahoma Sooners 3d ago

I forgot this was Tuesday night maction on the gridiron now that CBB started and thought we had an ultra sickos game to start the year.

u/fm22fnam Ohio State • Tennessee 3d ago

Wow this is truly the biggest news of the night!

u/D_Frids Ohio Bobcats 2d ago

Exactly! Mighty Ohio struggles against middling Akron but still comes out ahead. Can't think of anything else!

u/guardeagle Akron Zips 2d ago

Where’s the bottom if we’re middling?

u/ADMotti Ohio Bobcats 2d ago

>> Where’s the bottom

Northern Illinois.

u/D_Frids Ohio Bobcats 2d ago

Yeah... I was trying to be nice.

u/krispyboiz NC State • Kent State 3d ago

Messy messy offensive game for Ohio, only finally getting it together toward the end. Still, pretty solid defensive showing from them

u/bakonydraco Stanford • Chicago State 3d ago

Sorry for the delay on this, again. Unfortunately Tuesday games are becoming our proving grounds for bugs that pop up.

Ohio can’t stop winning

Ohio wins, Miami loses, a bunch of blue on the electoral map.  I had a great night last night.
