First I'll comment on Adrian Kzoo. There was a lot of talk about this game coming in and people saying Kzoo had a shot at an upset. I think some of the Adrian players might have read some of those comments and taken it to heart. They put a beat down on Kzoo. I wouldn't say that I every thought Kzoo was going to pull an upset, but with the way their season had started I had very high hopes that a very down team in recent years was making a huge surge much like the Tri-State/Trine of recent. I was hoping to see their offense continue to produce but it looks like Adrian picked them apart on both offense and defense.
First of all K-Zoo beat 3 really, really bad teams, and then lost to a bad team...I don't understand where all of the hype came from.
Trine beat quality opponents on their way to the top, I must say there is no comparison there. I also agree that Adrian must have been fed up hearing about Kalamazoo all week long...they certainly made K-Zoo look like K-Zoo.
I believe Adrian's record is a bit misleading...yes they beat Defiance and Bluffton...two bad teams, but also had very competitive games with Capital (#21 in the country) and Lake Erie, who has become quite a competitive team and will be joining the GLIAC next season. Adrian had opportunities to beat Capital in the 4th and were up on Lake Erie 21-0...to become a great team we all know the Bulldogs need to win these games...however, the blatant disrespect of people giving K-Zoo soooo much credit as to pick them over Adrian?
