They looked very good vs. Ohio St and played a strong first half against an excellent Boise St. team.

Fitz and the Bills are giving me my fill of simple glorious shotgun with lots of receivers and a qb with a bad arm but a good head making good choices and simple throws.No
OSU is mess right now and Boise had their way with them. Toledo had a very late score set up by a 60 yd Int return to get to 15.
Milhouse is going to have a new favorite team after this game (100% out of the gun, 3 wide base, and the only variation is if the 4th and 5th receiver is a TE and/or RB or two more WR's) but they are not going to beat SU.
We are getting a good exposure to a variety of offensive and defensive schemes in these OOC games. Hope it pays off in conference play.No

Exactly, people are forgetting what shape our secondary is at the moment.We are getting a good exposure to a variety of offensive and defensive schemes in these OOC games. Hope it pays off in conference play.
As for Saturday, it might be one of the higher scoring games in recent Dome history. With all the injuries we have on defense, we might have to outscore them to win.

I respect Go's opinion as much as anyone but I am not sold on us winning easy Saturday. I am goign to post a more lengthy post tonight but if Shamarko is out and Fisher is still out our secondary is in Shambles. Toledo is going to screen us to death and Lynn has yet to make it through a game without havign to leave due to an injury.
We have a good game in us. Toledo will be slow and small compared to what they saw at USC.
so will we compared to Boise and Ohio St
Toledo ran more screens in that game that I have ever seen any team run. With the possible exception of Syracuse in any game played during the GRob/Spence Year of the Bubble Screen.The shape of the secondary is a huge issue. Toledo from what I saw doesn't present nearly the vertical threat that USC does. They work the hash out underneath with combo routes. And they throw a ton of screens. The SU LB's will have a big role in how this turns out. They also are 100% min protection.

Toledo's D - 310 passing ypg given up
SU offensive strength is in the passing game. That is all.
Toledo turned the FB over

1)OSU is really only a mess at the WR position. Bauserman has a strong arm but doesn't have anybody to catch the football other than Stoneburner. Their run game is not a mess nor is their defense.
2) Toledo didn't score off the interception against Boise State. The QB turned the FB over with a fumble. near the goalline. The Rockets turned over another Redzone opportunity with an INT and also dropped a TD pass.
3)When Coach Beckman came to Toledo, two things he wanted to accomplish were improving team speed and depth. He has done both.
Sounds like a passing shootout... on paper. I'm curious to see how it all plays out.Toledo's D - 310 passing ypg given up

Definitely no pushover. My fear is SU's play calling. Will SU actually try to take advantage of the passing strength vs weakness? I saw too many 2nd and 10 run plays against USC to believe SU will try to win a shootout. I'd like to see a WR other than Lemon and Chew become more involved in the passing game, particulalry downfield.
