Will the Redhawks soar, or do the Roos really rule the roost? I say the former, but not by much: Miami 20 Akron 14 ---

The line makes me think Akron is even worse than their record. Miami covers. ---

Best handle on the board, I tend to agree with you although I suspect the bowling ball RB we have goes for two td’s. He’s really good. I’m forgetting his name as I write this. I’ll edit. Edit: Mr. Jones. He’s gonna have a big game. ---

_College Football 27_ Prediction: Akron 20 Miami 23 It’s amazing how forcing the video game to play Chuck Martin football really makes it feel, and act, like a real Chuck Martin game. Akron scored a short field goal on the opening drive and Miami could do nothing on offense early. With the score still 3-0, Akron had the chance to extend the lead by Ameriyun Knighten picked off the Ross Poffenbarger pass in the end zone. Miami methodically moved the ball down the field and Lazaro Rogers punched it in from the goal line to give Miami the 7-3 lead with 1:34 remaining in the half. Akron then hit some chunk pass plays and kicked another field goal to make it 7-6 with 17 seconds left in the half. Akron then played deep prevent defense, which allowed Rodney Nelson to pick up 26 yards on a draw and get the ball into Zips’ territory. After an incomplete pass, Caleb Heavner threw a Hail Mary that fell incomplete… but Akron was called for pass interference, which allowed Miami to kick a long field goal to end the half. Miami punted on its opening drive of the second half and downed the ball at the Akron 7. The great field position was wasted on the first play as Jordan Gant rumbled 66 yards. Dillon Tatum made the tackle to prevent the TD and preserve the lead. It turned out to be a critical play. Miami’s defense held Akron to a field goal and on the ensuing kickoff, Lynel Billups-Williams took the ball 95 yards for the score to put the RedHawks up 17-9. The score would remain that way until late in the game — believe it or not — but the defense allowed the opponent to drive down the field when it mattered most. Akron scored on a TD pass from the 1 with 40’ seconds remaining. A contested catch on the 2-point play tied the game and it eventually went to OT. The zips had the ball first and had 2 & goal from the 1 but couldn’t get the TD and settled for the field goal. Miami then used back-to-back Rodney Nelson runs to get the ball to the 1 and Heavner called the QB sneak for the win. Miami had 297 yards of total offense. Billups-Williams had a combined 208 yards on returns (5 kickoffs, 3 punts). Heavner was 12/23 passing for just 71 yards. Yes, 71 yards. Nelson finished as the leading rusher with 79 yards (thanks mainly to the 26-yarder right before halftime and the 24 yards in OT) but Miami had 4 guys with at least 38 yards on the ground. Akron 3 3 3 8 3 Miami 0 10 7 0 6 ![IMG_8105](https://miamihawktalk.fans/uploads/default/original/2X/9/9c481ec210d70381fed77ab6ceed457aeeb59993.jpeg) ![IMG_8107](https://miamihawktalk.fans/uploads/default/original/2X/b/b444af1f3465231a41ee1efb371848cb0b4c8a70.jpeg) ![IMG_8106](https://miamihawktalk.fans/uploads/default/original/2X/a/a3d9b4c1380832c1e5f4b12afb749ce024deff65.jpeg) ![IMG_8109](https://miamihawktalk.fans/uploads/default/original/2X/c/c9c1279b18896d08b9577ac138be29c7e9f6104c.jpeg) ![IMG_8111](https://miamihawktalk.fans/uploads/default/original/2X/4/4d843b00ca412da70aacf6c2767224241b86e543.jpeg)
