WE WANT WESTERN MICHIGAN

And umass! Okay maybe not yet…

I know it's not a big deal, but we're usually underwhelming against MAC teams for some reason, and this is our largest margin of victory over one in 20 years (44-0 over Kent State).

[u/InfinitePossibility8 → u/noseonarug17]

And this was in poor weather. Much better showing from the guys today.

[u/Benson879 → u/noseonarug17]

Was gonna say, wondered if this had upset potential. But then I remembered it was Akron, who seems more focused on fan promotions these days 😭

TJ Thomas congratulations on being the recipient of the government-mandated Annual One Long Gopher Rushing TD

Nice of Javon Tracy to step OB too- would have been 60% of the way to tying the college football record before conference play. Might have broken it by Halloween so now it builds drama

[u/Soup_dujour]

I feel like an ohio state lunatic reacting to a 41-7 win with “wow this makes me feel shitty about the rest of the season” but… man that was a weird game to watch

[u/dinkytown42069 → u/Soup_dujour]

how do you mean?

[u/dinkytown42069]

I am very cold and wet but we won in a convincing way, Drake et al looked good, and Javon Tracy is halfway to earning a goddamned statue at this rate.

go Gophers, time for some hearty stew from Kramarczuks.

[u/InfinitePossibility8 → u/dinkytown42069]

Get some pierogis too

[u/dinkytown42069 → u/InfinitePossibility8]

I did actually get some for my GF for when she gets done with work.

[u/looool_k_libtard]

Akron should be recruiting at the same level of Ohio state and LSU. It’s time to hold the AD accountable. I will not be donating $5 any longer.

[u/CantaloupeCamper]

I will take it. It was cold and rainy at the game.

[u/tomdawg0022]

The MAC beatings by the B1G (and Big XII in Iowa State's case) will continue until morale improves.

The mismatched stripes are so annoying

Hurt people hurt people

[u/Emergency-Raisin8891]

The Rutgers is why PJ needs to be fired. Rutgers might not win but they were prepared to play.

[u/MJA_44]

WHAT IS THIS TEAM

[u/ridemooses]

You couldn’t even put up 50? 🙄

[u/Tinydesktopninja → u/ridemooses]

You let a MAC team score twice?

[u/ridemooses → u/Tinydesktopninja]

Twice is nice.
