Potato Bowl Impressions

In my expectations blog, I pointed out that Akron has not beaten a team with a winning record this year.  No one pointed out to me that if Akron won, USU would finish sub-500 this year.  Therefore, Akron still hasn't beaten a team with a winning record.  The Aggies finish what can be described at a disappointing season.  Their first sub-.500 season since 2010.

It's hard to tell what is plaguing the Aggies from week to week.  If its not one thing, its another.  In the bowl, it was the play of the quarterbacks.  Neither Chuckie Keeton nor Kent Meyers was 100% for the bowl game, and neither was very effective.  USU was unable to take advantage of only the 3rd 100+ yard outing by a RB this season.

Akron came in perhaps a little more motivated.  For the Zips, this is their first bowl win ever.
