It won't be much of a preview this week. For the last few years, the Akron/Cincinnati matchup has been close and exciting. That's not happening today.
It has been anything but a solid start for the Zips this year, who have been outscored 83-3 over the first two weeks.
83-3.
Unfortunately for Akron, Cincinnati has this interesting concept called "offense". Let's compare some of the stat leaders:
Passing:
AKR-Clayton Moore-18/42, 246 YDS, 0 TD, 2 INT
CIN-Zach Collaros-33/53, 364 YDS, 6 TD, 0 INT
Ouch.
Rushing:
AKR-Jawon Chisholm-25 CAR, 89 YDS, 0 TD
CIN-Isaiah Pead-21 CAR, 242 YDS, 3 TD
Wow.
Receiving:
AKR-Marquelo Suel-5 REC, 110 YDS, 0 TD
CIN-D.J. Woods-13 REC, 170 YDS, 1 TD
Today we may see a little more Patrick Nicely, as Moore has just looked miserably uncomfortable in his first two starts. There's a decent chance that the Zips will get some offense going, but this Akron defense (which hasn't had a sack or an interception in its first two games) is going to be slaughtered by the Bearcats.
For masochistic Akron fans like me, the game will be shown on ESPN3 at 3:30pm.
Nice to see the standing here in your blog. Wish to be part of the championship game.
