Akron's defense returns its top six tacklers from last season, and John Mackey told the ABJ's David Lee Morgan that should give the Zips one of the MAC's most fearsome forces.

Morgan's story also talks about how Reggie Corner improved his grades to earn a final year of eligibility.

• Today's practice already concluded. Being a college student on a Saturday morning, I couldn't roll out of bed in time. I'll pass along any information I hear.
• There is a huge scandal forming in Toledo, as a backup running back attempted to bribe teammates $10,000 to sit out games so gamblers can get a better feel for the spread. If Scooter McDougle tells the feds everything he knows, this could get ugly for the UT athletic department.

Baseball

The Zips fell 8-3 to MAC West leading Northern Illinois.

The teams will play again today at 1. Akron (11-7, 1-3 MAC) better start winning some of these conference games before the season slips away (again).

Softball

Akron split a doubleheader with Miami yesterday.
