Was this a rhetorical post? It was more of a "should we ever root for Akron", even today.  Perhaps I should have phrased it that way.  Back to Top whocaresgobobcats General User Member Since: 8/29/2011 Post Count: 519 Status: Offline     RE: Can we root for Akron today?    Posted: 11/15/2012 11:44:44 AM  Zeke Marshall a pre-season All American? hahahahhahahahaahahahahahah Back to Top OUVan General User Member Since: 12/20/2004 Location: Bethesda, MD Post Count: 5,580 Status: Offline     RE: Can we root for Akron today?    Posted: 11/15/2012 11:50:41 AM  The Zips are down 1 with 15 minutes left, 41-40.

Thank you. If we want the MAC to be a multi-bid league, we need teams that perform.
