The Akron Zips have been at it since 1891 in Akron, Ohio, building a resume that includes the 2005 MAC championship and the program’s first bowl victory at the 2015 Famous Idaho Potato Bowl. The Zips also made a run to the 1985 Division I-AA national championship game, a milestone that still resonates. Fans remember quarterback Luke Getsy guiding that 2005 title team, while Pro Football Hall of Famer Jason Taylor remains an iconic alum.

Game days center on InfoCision Stadium at Summa Field, a modern downtown venue that keeps the crowd close to the action and energized from kickoff. The annual Wagon Wheel clash with Kent State ignites Northeast Ohio, fueled by spirited student sections and Zippy the kangaroo leading the charge. Expect lively tailgates, skyline views, and a home atmosphere that rewards committed fans.
