Gameday news and notes
Football
It really gets me pumped up to read stories like the one in today's ABJ.
In it, several Zips talk about the importance of this game.
There is no doubt in my mind that Akron will be just as prepared for this game as the team was for the MAC Championship.
- J.D. Brookhart will script the first dozen or so plays, the PD reports.
- The Wagon Wheel's history is pretty interesting, if you believe it, that is.
- USA Today's Danny Sheridan gives the Zips a 1.5-point advantage.
As I stated earlier in the week, my prediction is Akron 28, Kent State 14.
