Anybody on Toledo we are keeping an eye on?

Everyone who isn't out of eligibility at the end of the year.

Anybody on Toledo we are keeping an eye on?

 

[firstnline]

So far Toledo holding their own against Louisville.

 

[BlueWolf25]

I’m impressed by how Toledo is playing, they don’t look too overmatched and they’re playing hungry

 

[Stinger92860]

I am impressed with Toledo on the Defensive side, not sure our D could limit Ville to 7 (so far) in the first half.

 

[firstnline]

Toledo killing themselves with penalties.

 

[firstnline]

Very impressive how the Toledo defensive front is stuffing the run. Only down 7-3 at the half.

 

[Marbles90]

That was me of the knocks on Candle from the Toledo fans - teams were very undisciplined and lost games due to really dumb penalties. Definitely seeing that with Toledo today.

 

[Hoophound]

Toledo’s QB, Osborn, has a lot of potential. He’s a beast on the ground and throws it ok too. He’s young so there’s room for development. Wouldn’t mind him joining us.

 

[Purple Stein]

Toledo killing themselves with penalties.

They were among the most (if not the most) penalized teams in the country this year. Last year too, I believe.

Mora's teams were very disciplined - I think we were 18th least penalized this year or something like that. That's going to be an adjustment!

 

[storrsroars]

14 penalties for 100 yards. Please don't bring that kind of play to Storrs.

 

[Kolumbo]

The QB ran it in on the next 4th down play so no matter. But whose fault is this? Everyone seems to be blaming the TE but did the TE get a late start or did they hike the ball too soon. Pretty empty Ford Field too, of course, for the Scooter's Coffee Frisco Bowl

Down 21-0, Hawaii ties a great game, trades leads with Cal, then wins it wins it 35-31 with a ballsy call and TD pass by back up QB with 10 rebounds remaining. Back up only in the game for a play due to player of the game starter’s injury in prior play. MWC > ACC

 

[AllHusky]

The UNLV TE “tackling” the RB sums up my level of interest in the bowl games, bloopers.

The Hawaii bowl is always one of the more entertaining bowl games. Always on Christmas Eve, you sneak off into the living room during your Christmas Eve party and maybe a couple of friends/relatives will join you as everyone is stuffed from eating. An opportunity to crash on the couch then you wake up in the 2nd half.

It wouldn't be the Hawaii bowl without Hawaii and Timmy Chang.

That freshman quarterback they have is something else - he is just a winner. If he stays there and stays healthy maybe there's a Cinderella story in their future over the next 3 years.

Hurry… get your Pinstripe Bowl 50/50 tickets!

 

[Scoe]

It's the New Mexico Dolphins.

 

[storrsroars]

It's the New Mexico Dolphins.

It's SB VII vs Redskins!

And if UNM gets 8 more points, it's the same score

 

[Jimdish255]

Hated the second and third down playcalling by New Mexico on their last drive of regulation. Nine wins and the coaches seemed to freeze up only needing a FG vs Minnesota Maniac Fleck.

 

[Vowelguy]

Meanwhile, in FCS…

When you have the 2 biggest teams in the state — pro or college in any sport , and huge rivals - playing each other, interest is high.
25k attendance (stadium record, 5k over regular capacity)

In contrast, the other FCS semi got < 4500.

What an awful call to deny ECU a TD. "Inadvertent whistle", lol.

And next play, Pitt takes a fumble into the end zone.
