[niccus2]

Im just gonna have to come in here and say....

Fire up Chips, haha

[jhbengals07]

Are you seriously still whining about that missed call? Really effected the season, the fact of the matter is you guys were dumb enough to take a safety and punt the ball when you could have just punted the ball out of bounds and at about the 50, opposite 40-yard line and made our pathetic offense go 50-60 yards in :10, but instead you gave it to our special teams = big mistake =)

Dumbest comment ever "You think that was good how about the plays of the week" That was the play of the century!

[sweentrain14]

they missed a block in the back call against akron, shouldnt have counted

[furlong1018]

good excuse

[varna12]

thats my hometown team

[TangerineJenkins]

Steve French is the funniest scream-play-by-play man ever :)

[kentsucks]

fear the roo

[71GMC]

One of the many game the MAC refs screwed up for WMU. They were even nice enough to admit to missing 2 calls that ended up being TD's.

[ejcool27]

ur just a hater

[akronzips45]

Bitch u a motherfucken hata !!!! More like 71MYDICKMC

[BobFalfa69]

Typical western crybabies.

[redmustang03]

This is why college football rocks!

[eaglefreak04]

this play blows...aint got nothin on kyle korver

[TangerineJenkins]

Just love that screamin!

[themack713]

Andre Jones!!!!!!!!

[wingeater]

Thanks so much for posting this. Living 1,000 miles away from Akron, I wasn't able to find this anywhere. And to all you douchebags who say "It's only Akron" and had mommy and daddy pay for you to go to Florida or Texas, shut the hell up. Fear the Roo!!!!!!!

[midgetman1387]

AMEN!! I'm sick of everyone putting down MAC teams. MAC competition is some of the fiercest in all the leagues, and I think this play shows it!!!

[lilaznoutsider]

....RIGHT....

I like how your 1-3 non-conference record shows how good your team is, and all of those non conference teams aren't that good, minus OSU (nice safety).

[midgetman1387]

hey fuckass. READ. "MAC" competition. That means competition between MAC schools. It's unpredictable and usually close.

fuck off.

[jhbengals07]

dumbest quote ever "You think that was good check out these plays of the week" That's was the play of the year dummy!

[rebelkid4ever]

they should have kicked it short so that although the zips would have had realativly good field position, there wouldn't have been a long touchdown run.

[madscout96]

This play should not have happened! The Carl Paganelli, coordinator of officials for the MAC, apologized to WMU coach Bill Cubit for 2 non-calls on Akron's last two touchdowns. The refs missed a false start by the offensive line, and then on the final play they missed an illegal block.

[BobFalfa69]

Play should not have happened...exactly. Kick the ball out of your own end zone instead of taking a safety. Poor officiating is no excuse. Tackle him and it doesn't make plays of the week.

[DralionProductions]

What a play.

[kentsucks]

FEAR THE ROOOO

[Mika20]

whoa!

That's awsome!

[SkateboardT2]

That was great.

[sistervenusmusic]

koolness

[MandaBob2010]

whoot!

[granzowster]

As a WMU alumni all I have to say is - FUCK!

First Michigan and now this? I should never have left the United States, it's all gone to shit.

[jsei288293]

Steve French Rocks!!! Much better than the national guys that do games.

[poetworm]

i will dare say that this was AS GOOD AS "THE PLAY" except without the band.

AMAZING. i mean, how the hell did that guy lateral the ball with all those defenders on top of him!! and then the last play!! i thought he was a goner, but no!!

[dman234]

way to go cubit.....our coach takes a safty on purpose with 7 sec left then that...where was the replay ref??????????

[salivar06]

My favorite part is the main play-by-play announcer (not the color guy who yells way too much) going from all business like (He gets the ball at the ten... *breathes in* tries to break a tackle) to going bonkers (ANDRE JONES WITH ONE MAN TO BEAT! ANDRE JONES IS GOING TO GO TO THE FIVE TO THE TWO TOTHEONETOUCHDOWNAKRONNNNNNN). Best play in football.

[smoose8]

OMG

[Infinity161]

Those announcers are a bunch of fat ass loud mouths.

[chrisuncleahmad]

And I thought Appalachian State's radio guys made a big deal...

[historybuffwannabe]

Thank you. These guys are WAY to happy about their JV team beating the Freshmen. They most likely scored simply because they are playing a team that can't tackle.

[gbaby791]

I was on the field cheerin the game! that was by far the best game i have ever seen, cheered at or ne thing! Go ZIPS!!!

[kohtax]

I was on campus at WMU practicing with my band. I knew the game was going on, but it seemed so quiet and I saw people leaving around 9ish. I wish I could've seen it though. I've always wanted to see a miracle play even if it was the away team.

[plasticearth225]

I was there. It was pretty disappointing to see most of the crowd leave after WMU went up only 14 points with about seven minutes left. It was an awesome finish to an overall great game.

[historybuffwannabe]

Someone tell the announcers that they work for Akron...and they beat Western Michigan...There's no need to act like we just liberated the world from Al Queda.

They need to get out and see more of the world.

[mzgrz]

The announcers were excited about the play, but they went nuts in anticipation of the play making ESPN. Read the last paragraph at:

[slassy]

It says Akron-ISP Sports Network at the top at the beginning.

[historybuffwannabe]

Yeah, I know they work for Akron. But it's AKRON (3-3). And they beat Western Michigan (2-4). But these guys sound like they are talking smack from some high perch of Football royalty. Calm down, homer announcers; you're working for the JV squad.

[daman1023]

Anyone else here at the game? I was beyond pissed watching this play.

[weeezerguy812]

hahaha we all saw this on epsn

[Beaston23]

AK-RON W00000000t

[Akrowdya64]

Ak-Rowdy BABY!! We Da BEST!

[daman1023]

"hahaha, serves those western dbags right! looks like they had some good attendance too... FIRE UP CHIPS!!!"

Everyone had left by then, worst part is we were up by 14 with about 4 minutes to go.

[BARQSbeerrr]

yea espn said check it out and it is pretty amazing

[daniel7188]

espn just told me to watch this on youtube.. so i did

[hilps61188]

[bosoxnorx]

haha yea youtube mustve paid them to say that

[jclar569]

i was watching as well and wow!

[sman755]

OMG, I go to Western Michigan!!! This is so embarssing. I had no idea it would make it onto ESPN and become the #1 play on sportscenter. Then be on a survey online for the greatest plays of the college football season!!! so embarssing...

[alex5878]

im watching that show too

[lionoil54321]

ESPN just said to go to this vid on youtube

[Akrowdya64]

I know i was just watching college footbal live too

[Eleazar73]

And Andre Jones could've been a BC Eagle, how did Tom O'Brien's staff mess that one up?

[7LBurna7]

I think the best is the Plano East John Tyler football game in 1994. look that one up

[NyTeCRaWLeRx]

nothin is better than winona st vs barton

[solitary386]

Indeed. I've watched that ending so many times. Just when you think it's over... wham.

[snizzake]

hahaha, serves those western dbags right! looks like they had some good attendance too... FIRE UP CHIPS!!!

[s1hoe2dt]

From a Chippewa's perspective, it doesn't get much better than that!!!

[tiffanieverett]

I love my Zips!!!!

[daman1023]

I was there in the front row puking, what a horrible collapse by my Broncos. Hell of a a play though.

[my88gtx]

That was an amazing play!

[seemehaha]

finally! it's up on the internet!

GO ZIPS!

[crazyjay1977]

I don't know what was better. The actual play itself or the reaction from the announcers.

[akronzipfan]

Thank you, thank you, thank you!!!!

Go Zips!!!!
