One simple question, how do you get up for a game like this anyways? There is simply no incentive to beat a second rate team. Just my opinion.

Everything will be all good if we fire Dooley. That is what the negavol will say.

To anyone who complains about any win I submit to you Memphis 1995 and Wyoming 2008. I'll take any ugly win over a bad loss like those.

The answer is the simple fact that they are a second rate team coming onto our home field. So therefore, we treat them as such. You put a beating down that reminds them where they stand in the college football world. But since we can't seem to do this any more, what does that say for the state of the program?

All I'm saying is if I was playing on this team and I woke up yesterday morning and said to myself, we gotta play Akron tonight, I'd be like son of a *****, we gotta play stinking Akron. I say do away with the smaller teams and every team schedule big out of conference games. This would really prove who the best is.

And we'd be 0-4 right now. Good idea.

ULM says they like away games.

If Akron had played Bama, GA, Fla, SC, Miss St, or Auburn the Zips would have been beaten soundly by 5 to 6 TD's. But a win is a win, right?

Yea all the top teams who blow teams like this out must think like you. I mean good grief poor Okie State, had they gotten up for their first game would have scored 300.

I don't care who it is, you go out to destroy them. That's the problem with this program over the past several years.

The talent level alone should still have made that game a 40 point spread.

Keep thinking like a loser and you will alway dwell in mediocrity.

So some of you love playing these cream puffs? I hate it, it isn't an accurate measuring stick for how good you really are. I would have like to seen our first two games this year as @ USC and then vs Clemson or something like that. I feel bad for the cream puffs because what does a beat down do for those kids? Makes em better? I don't think so, fix this **** NCAA.

The way you look at Akron is probably the way Ala,Ga,Fla for sure probably looks at Tn now. You can try to come up with all the excuses that you can find but the bottom line Tn just isn't very good.

When you play in the SEC, you have to have those games. There wouldn't be anybody left to field a team at the end of the season.

What it says about the state of our program is that college football, as a whole, is getting more competitive.
In the past, the big college's would get all of the best athletes. Now, that is different, you can look at almost any college football program and find better coach's and some NFL caliber players on even the smallest of teams.
I do agree that we aren't as good as some of our teams in the past, but our competition is better also.
Fifteen years ago, Kentucky never made it to a bowl game, now, they make a bowl game maybe 7 out of 10 seasons.

What do you mean we can't do it any more? Are you implying Fulmer readily disposed of these teams? I recall him struggling with UAB & Air Force
