Toledo will have played 14 to 16 games against teams with winning records in their own respective league.

Against those teams Toledo was:
+32 against Cleveland State (7-7)
-2 against UCLA
+4 against Dayton
-17 against Notre Dame
+6 against Detroit
-6 against BSU
+9 against Buffalo (6-6)
-4 against NIU
-11 against Ohio
-10 against Kent State
+2 against CMU
+22 against Buffalo (6-6)
-6 against Ohio
(CMU)
(NIU)
(BSU)

We are +19 points to teams who are considered average or better in their own league. We have not lost to any team that is not in that category. We consistently play good D, and stay in games even when we can't shoot. Hold on folks, this team may go on a run. I said it earlier this season... this team will make the MAC finals.

time to get that SWAGGER back.

Next year should be THE year. This team has exceeded my expectations and with three frosh/soph starters and only one senior contributing substantial minutes, next year or the year after should yield the elusive NCAA bid we crave.

Massey's RPI, although finding Toledo's individual RPI higher, breaks out the MAC West from both the MAC and MAC East, and has identified it as the stronger conference for some time now, at least for Women's Basketball.

Selected Individual NCAA Rankings

The FTs made/attempted was totally unexpected to me. Imagine if the FT% was better.

Also, here's a note about Boyd's rebounding. Right now she is averaging 8.0 rebounds per game. In the last 19 seasons for which I have records, only 4 other players have averaged 8+ rebounds per game: Inma in 13-14, Melantha Herron in 01-02, Kahli Carter in 00-01 and Jennifer Markwood in 99-00. Pretty amazing company for a 5'7 point guard.

Oh, 1 more stat of possible interest. UT has held their opponents to below their season average scoring in 30 out of 33 games this season. That's 91% of the time. The only 3 teams that bested their season average against the Rockets: Dayton, UCLA & ND.
