Don't they have a new Head Coach?

You didn’t hear? John Arth. Big time hire from John Carroll.

I too really see the Zips turning it around this year, and vying for a championship this year. We have had our games, and I have seen them @ Tenn. I have a bunch a respect for team.

I was at the MTSU vs. Akron game in '05.

That's all I have to say about that.

I'm too lazy to look it up right now, but as of late December, they were one of only two FBS teams with a worse recruiting class than Louisville, and behind a shit ton of FCS teams. So, no.

I saw them play @ Cincinnati in 2011. Besides that, I have Zip!

Since you’ve been to so many games, do you keep a game log or you able to remember when and where from memory?

I keep a log of games, teams, stadiums, etc. I remember plenty, but I have to check the log from time to time for refresher! For example, I knew I saw Akron @ UC, but I had to look up the year.

Ok good that makes me feel better. I’ve been to a lot of games myself but all the years just blend together over time. I should start a log of my own

You should! I started early when I didn't have a ton to remember. Might take a little research, but should be able to look at a year and know which games you attended. Fill in the gaps as you can. I have my teams sorted king of the hill style, with the overall record, winning percentage and last time I saw them play. So, the team at the bottom of my list is South Carolina - which I saw in 1983, and Alabama is at the top of the list (Orange Bowl this past year). Winner of a game is listed over the loser of course. Gives me a nice sense of history too as I look at the list from top to bottom!

Here is the list of teams I saw play last year:

01. Alabama Crimson Tide 36-9 .800 12/29/18 Oklahoma @ Orange

02. Oklahoma Sooners 9-3 .750 12/31/18 Alabama @ Orange

03. Coastal Carolina Chanticleers 1-0 1.000 10/27/18 @ GA State

04. Georgia State Panthers 0-2 .000 10/27/18 Coastal Carolina

05. Missouri Tigers 2-6 .250 10/13/18 @ Alabama

06. Cincinnati Bearcats 26-13 .667 10/06/18 vs. Tulane

07. Tulane Green Wave 0-4 .000 10/06/18 @ Cincinnati

08. Ball State Cardinals 1-0 1.000 09/29/18 vs. Kent State

09. Kent State Golden Flashes 1-1 .500 09/29/18 @ Ball State

10. Michigan State Spartans 4-6 .400 08/31/18 vs. Utah State

11. Utah State Aggies 0-2 .000 08/31/18 @ Michigan State
