- Thread starter eastcane
- Start date
And we know how allegedly great those MAC teams are when they are picked to beat us in bowl games. 
Toledo will B a Tuff game 4 da’ Cane.
UT returns one of the nation's most explosive offenses. Led by senior quarterback Logan Woodside, Woodside shattered just about every Toledo passing record in the books in 2016. He led the nation with 45 touchdown passes, 16 more than the previous best in Rocket history. He connected on 69.1 percent of his passes for 4,129 yards, an average of more than 317 yards per contest. He earned first-team All-MAC honors and was named a contender for the Heisman Trophy by the Hesiman Trophy Trust. Most importantly, he directed the Rockets to nine wins, pacing an offense that scored at least 31 points in 11 of 13 games.
Toledo averaged 38.0 points per game and led the Mid-American Conference in total offense with 517.8 yards per game. Woodside paced the nation with 45 touchdown passes. Two of his favorite targets are back—Cody Thompson (64 receptions, 11 TDs, 19.8 ypc, 1st team All MAC) and Jon'Vea Johnson (40/10/19.3)—as is 2015 second-team All-MAC running back Terry Swanson. Toledo did lose 3 Offensive lineman Starters.
On defense, the Rockets return seven starters, including All-MAC linebacker Ja'Wuan Woodley.
IF Toledo can get by Tulsa, then wind the next week @ Miami, they could run the table in the MAC & give the MAC a 2nd straight new Year’s Day after West Mich last yr.

It will be another Miami Bowl or GMAC bowl beat down of a MAC team by Tulsa.
No, and thank goodness. Wish we would schedule more games like this. I look forward to games against competitive non-P5 schools, and this one should be competitive and fun. I find no fun playing the hillbillies to the east.
Home field seems to be an advantage for everyone except us (don't get it). Just another hurdle that Monty and the boys shoul be able to overcome.
Oh, it happens here too.
UCF sure thought it was home cooking when Watts was returning that punt.
So Miss sure felt it when the clocked stopped at :01 and we got 2 chances to hit the FG.
