How Bad did Akron Get Screwed?
-
TiernanThe last 2 min of that game were the worst Homer job in the history of the Big Outhouse ( and that's saying something based upon their usual quick clock antics ). But today they earned a whole new level of cheaty McCheats.

Pick6Really bummed about the loss..I was really looking forward to burn Akron down tonight. Part of it is Michigan having a hangover from the ND game, but I was impressed how we fought back multiple times during the game after the huge underdogs are supposed to fold. Hopefully it carries on for the rest of the season and the Zips are watchable. Confident in Bowden leading the program.

Azubuike24While the clock was a bit iffy, Akron did not get that first down and the way they managed that set of downs, it really didn't end up mattering with the clock. Now, had the first down been granted, it would've then really mattered how many downs they could have squeezed into 15 seconds versus 24 seconds.

Classyposter58Yeah talk about a game that shouldn't count, Akron was hosed
-
slingshot4everAkron didn't get screwed at all!!! The time doesn't matter as they still were able to run the maximum number of plays since the last play was 4th down with 5 seconds left.
if you want to see what getting screwed is like, check out the ending of the Wisky ASU game. -
slingshot4everThe replay determined it wasn't a first down, therefore the clock was suppose to run. If it was determined that it was a first down they would have gotten the 9 seconds back!
All of you should probably reviewing the rules of the game before running your mouths. -
vball10set^^^see post #6, and tsun should still be embarrassed...just sayin'
-
slingshot4everI agree, it is embarrassing that it came down to that play for UM. It's the first few posts that need to read that link.

SonofanumpLulz @incorrect statements.

TiernanDefend all you want Slingshit...America believes they got screwed and scUM will forever be defending themselves for getting beat by Akron but they cheated to win. Actually a win - win for scUM haters.
-
JugheadI swear that there was a running clock after a dead ball foul after a timeout, but the play by play sheets say otherwise.
-
ernest_t_bassI actually agree with Tiernan.
-
bases_loadednot as bad as Wisconsin did
-
supermanThere was also pass interference on the final play.
-
Trueblue23They had 4 chances inside the 8 yard line, and they failed 4 times. Game over. Props to Akron for fighting hard the whole game.

AutomatikAkron screwed themselves. That toss play was a terrible call.
-
Sonofanump[MENTION=215]superman[/MENTION]. No way to call PI either way on that play. I don't care if #11 white pushes #38 black and he falls to the ground. Not going to call it.

WebFireYes, Akron was screwed because the correct ruling on the clock was made. Makes sense to me.
-
TiernanBut nobody else believes that Webbie...America thinks Akron won that game and now you got to live down Appi State and Zippy State. Egg on the face Brady.

A correct statement would be "America can't believe Akron almost beat Michigan."
If they don't win by at least 3 touchdowns against UConn this week, then I will be really worried, instead of mildly worried. -

It's ok. I don't mind playing a little bit since it's his own thread. I wouldn't do it on threads that actually matter.Automatik;1501120 wrote:Don't feed the troll. He's drunk as fuck on a Monday morning.
