Andrew Johnson off the injured list
Football
Andrew Johnson should be ready for Saturday's game against Eastern Michigan. The Zips took him off the injured list this week.
The burden on Johnson should not be so great this week because Dennis Kennedy is coming off the best game of his career. Still, Kennedy struggled mightily against Kent State, and there is no telling which running back will show up.

Notes...
There are no surprises from the rest of the injury report. Al-Teric Balaam is doubtful. Ryan Bain, Cowles Stewart, Paul Simkovich, Alex Allen and Evan Laube are out.
It's two days before gameday and Akron is a four-point favorite. The over-under is 50.5.
Dave Ruthenberg at MACReportOnline.com says Akron will win by exactly that amount.
I might not be blogging so much in the next two weeks. On Wednesday, I received my biggest Law Review assignment, which requires (an additional) 40 hours of work in 10 days.
