Announcers said they were expecting a lot of passes as was I . . . it is a ground game so far by both sides.

Looks like A LOT of FIU fans made the trip.

FIU really needs to keep Toledo out of the endzone on this drive.

Yes, they do . . . but they did not . . . TD Toledo !!!

FIU will need to do a better job on special teams. You don't want Eric Page to beat you, but when you let the opponent start at the 37-yard line when you haven't been stopping them at all, you put yourself in a whole.

It's still the first half, and Toledo has 21 points. Only one team this season beat Toledo when they scored at least 30 points and that was Northern Illinois. The Rockets are only nine points away and they have over an entire half to get there.

Agree; not looking too good for FIU at this point !!

Toledo only averaged 156 yards per game rushing coming into the Little Caesar's Pizza Bowl.

The Rockets have 207 yards on the ground already. They are wearing down FIU's defense.

Alot of dropped passes will not get you down the field.

FIU needs points on this drive. Toledo gets the ball back to begin the second half.

LOL Dave Lamont is FAU's color guy and he is doing the game

Yeah, FIU's D is staying on the field too much . . . FIU's offense needs to move the ball better.

Come on FIU......

Why throw into the endzone on a 4th and 2?

The FIU QB has thrown some wild passes that were ripe for a pick off . . . he needs to watch that.

That was a HORRIBLE series for Florida International. Toledo is rockin' this game. This is not the same team that demolished Troy in the regular season.

Hopefully a different FIU team (specifically offense) comes out in the 2nd half

21 - 7 at the half for Toledo . . . FIU needs to adjust and regroup in the 2d half. I agree Mario . . . STOP THE RUN !!!

You are correct and that leads me to believe like other people in here believe, that FIU team this year was a one year wonder like FAU was back in '07

Florida International is winless this year when trailing at the half.
