PM Toledo at Eastern Michigan:
This is a Mid American Conference game
between the Toledo Rockets and the Eastern Michigan Eagles. Toledo enters this
game at 5-1 on the season and are only an overtime loss in the season opener to
Arizona from a perfect 6-0 record. The Rockets are in the top 51 nationally in
passing and rushing the ball led by quarterback Terrence Owens 1503 yards in
the air this season. Owens is just over 500 yards short of setting a season
high in passing yards with 6 games left in the season. Eastern Michigan enters
this game on fumes at 0-5 and a demoralizing 41-14 loss to Kent State last
week. The Eagles are past must win territory and full on into save the coach's
job territory. The Eagles are in the bottom 25 rushing and passing the ball and
have the 5th worst scoring offense and 15th worst scoring defense. This is the
40th overall meeting between the two schools with Toledo holding a 28-11
overall series lead with wins in the last 5 meetings. Unless EMU can find
something that has been missing all season and play somewhere near the level of
2011, this could get ugly. Even if they do play as well as last year, this
should get ugly. Toledo 55-14.
