Toledo 13 - Michigan 10

Toledo becomes the first MAC team to beat the mighty Wolverines...

I posted the same thing! LOL! I'll deleted my thread and drop my post in this thread!

We know that Rodriguez is rebuilding and installing his system, but he should have enough talent to beat a bad (at least for this year) Toledo team at the "Big House"! Congratulations to Toledo for being the first MAC team to beat Michigan at the Big House!

Great minds think alike...

lol!

Toledo? Arizona crushed them! Of course they did take Fresno to OT ... but then Fresno lost to Hawaii ... OMG ... Aaahh, CFB!

I think it's going to get worse for Michigan this year. DickRod will be available to the Cuse in two seasons but we'll pass on him.

Wow, I almost feel bad for Michigan. I have quite a few good friends who are Michigan fans. They are going to have it tough in conference if they can't even beat these weak teams. When's the last time they had a losing record? I imagine they'll be good in a couple years though.

FIU beat Toledo 35-16 and it was IN toledo.
LOL

1967 was last losing season for U of missedagain.

Michigan will have trouble until Rodriguez finds himself somebody to run the spread. It all revolves around the man behind center...

I think part of WVU's problem is that Mullen runs a different kind of spread, and he doesn't know how to use the talent available without screwing up what worked for them in the first place...

The problem with WVU, is Mullen doesn't call a good game, doesn't know how to use the talent he has, and doesn't seem to be getting better at either. Other than that, he is tremendous.

The problems aren't all with play calling. Execution is just as big a factor. They've changed blocking assignments and coverages, and the weakest link in the offensive line, OG Jake Figner, has repeatedly let them down with his performance. Josh Jenkins was about to supplant him in the starting lineup when he dislocated his kneecap, and the offensive line had started to play much better with him in the lineup.

I wonder about this season, though. It's been one of those seasons, just one thing after another. No offense at all, from a prolific offense returning pretty much intact. It's baffling. Thank goodness for Coach Casteel and the defense...

Just like Bama a few years back, you better get your licks in on Michigan now, because Rich Rod will have them back very soon.

As soon as he finds a QB...
