No brainer. If Bowden really wants to take Akron to a terrible blow game, ala the Toilet Bowl, then prove you can beat the best D1 team in NE Ohio.

If we get a Home $ Home and it doesn't replace a money game, then I am all for it. Don't sacrifice a money game to play a bottom dweller.

Nice thought, but Akron has nothing to gain and everything to lose if they do this, so I don't see it happening. If YSU fans want to see this rivalry renewed, we'll have to push for D-I status.

No. I'd rather play someone tougher. Like Hiram. Or Otterbein. Or Heidelberg. When Akron can elevate their program to the level of these teams, I would advocate YSU playing them.

Absolutely. It should be well-attended since the visiting fans would travel. We always travel so far for our conference games, it would be nice to have a good ooc game to go to.
