It’d be so much more romantic if I said Jeff Undercuffler Jr. came off the bench to lead the Zips to a come-from-behind win against a spunky FCS team. And counter to that, it’d be a lot less romantic if I said Jeff Undercuffler Jr. came off the bench for reasons undetermined and threw three interceptions. And yet, sometimes life isn’t romantic, and very frequently, college football isn’t, either.
There were fumbles. There was the turnover tire. There was a walk-off scoop-and-score. And yes, there is finally a W in Akron’s win column, as the Zips (1-1) stole a win from the jaws of defeat over the Morgan State Bears (1-1) on Saturday night.
