ncaa reg. season win(s) total play

JOEY1028 · July 2005

toledo o8.5 -145, u8.5 +115 toeldo returns 16 starters from last seasons league champions (8- 3 reg season) team . 2 of the loses were blow-out non-conference losses to minnesota (21-63) and kansas (14-63). they finished 1-2 non-conf by beating temple 45-17 at home. this year their non-conf schedule includes western ill, temple and at fresno st. toledo should at worse be 2-1 w/ this schedule as fresno always plays tough at home. their third loss was in conference play on the road at miami oh. (16-23) they revenged this loss in the mac championship by beating miami 35-27. toledo will not face miami oh in the regular season this year but that game is replaced by playing bowling green on the road in the final week of the regular season. the x-factor on toeldo winning 9 games becomes the game at home on nov. 16th against northern ill. north ill does boast the best o-line in the mac with a pair of explosive backs to boot (garrett wolf and aj harris). however, toledo just simply does not lose at home. im going to take my chances on a defense that will not allow 126 points the first two games w/ 8 returning starters back. with bruce gradowski running the show at quarter back, toledo will do what they've always done and thats score. improved defense, non-conf schedule that includes western ill and temple my play is.. toledo over 8.5 wins -145 and we'll see them at the motor city bowl or gmac bowl. good luck
